Resumo: |
Prevalence of Escherichia coli in foods of animal origin from the city of Pelotas, Brazil, was determined. The ocurrence of enterotoxigenic (ETEC) and classic enteropathogenic (EPEC) serogroups among E. coli isolates was determined. E. coli was isolated from 68% of the food samples surveyed. Of 36 food samples tested, 11(30%) and 24(66%) were positive for EPEC and ETEC strains respectively. However, of 187 E. coli isolates tested, 30(16%) were EPEC compared to 75(40%) which were ETEC. The antibiotic resistance pattern revealed that the isolates were highly sensitive to all antibiotics tested.
