Abstract:
When testing the production of the thermolabile enterotoxin by strains of E. coli, using six different methods, the highest positivity (100%) was recorded when using the modified test of oedema on mouse paws and the lowest one (5%) when using the Biken test. The strains were isolated from diarrhoeal infections in young children.
