Plasmid borne virulence of Enterobacter hafniae.

The strain classified as Enterobacter hafniae has been isolated in a severe epidemy of porcine diarrhoea. Its pathogenicity has been found to be cotransmissible with resistance to oxytetracycline when the strain was grown in a mixed culture with some nonpathogenic E. hafniae strains as well as with Escherichia coli. Toxinogenity seems to be responsible for virulence of the strain.

Population shift in drug resistant and sensitive Escherichia coli during antibiotic treatment of children with diarrhea.

Changes in composition of Escherichia coli were followed during antibiotic therapy of nin children with acute diarrhea. In five cases enteropathogenic serotypes of E. coli were multiple-drug resistant, and in four other this feature characterized nonpathogenic E. coli strains. The results point to the importance of choice of the drugs effective not only against pathogenic serotypes, but also against nonpathogenic ones, and uselessness and even harmfulness of chemotherapy "in blindly".
