TI  - Appearance of enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli in piglets with diarrhea in 
      connection with feed changes.
PG  - 467-77
AB  - Twelve weaned piglet (3-week-old) were divided into three groups according to 
      time of feed change and observed for diarrhea during the time they were 3 to 8 
      weeks of age. A total of 553 strains of Escherichia coli were isolated from 
      rectal fecal samples and examined for heat-labile (LT) and heat-stable (ST) 
      enterotoxins, pilus antigens (K88, K99, and 987P), hemolysin (Hly), raffinose 
      utilization (Raf) and drug resistance. Enterotoxins and/or hemolytic E. coli 
      strains appeared in the rectal feces of 5- to 6-week-old piglets with diarrhea in 
      connection with feed change and changing temperatures. Most of the isolates 
      showed multiple drug resistance to sulfonamides (Sa), streptomycin (Sp), 
      ampicillin, and/or mercury. Enterotoxigenic E. coli isolates represented four 
      phenotypes: K88+.LT+.Hly+.Raf+.(SaSmCpTcKmSp) (12 strains), K99+.ST+.Raf+.(TcKm) 
      (7 strains), ST+.Raf+.(TcKm) (7 strains), and ST.+(SaSmKm) (25 strains). The drug 
      resistance determinants were transferable concurrently and some of them mobilized 
      the determinants for K88, LT, Hly, and Raf to an E. coli C strain.
