TI  - Alteration of myoelectric activity of small intestine by invasive Escherichia 
      coli.
PG  - G57-62
AB  - Invasive strains of Escherichia coli (4608-58 and TD 213 CL) altered myoelectric 
      activity of the small intestine in New Zealand White rabbits. The altered 
      myoelectric activity had two distinct complex patterns. The first was defined as 
      repetitive bursts of action potentials (RBAPs) that occurred predominantly in 
      infected ligated ileal loops. The RBAP activity is characterized by action 
      potential discharge activity greater than 1.5 s in duration and occurring on 
      three or more successive slow waves on the same electrode recording site. These 
      bursts of action potentials often migrated to adjacent electrode sites. The 
      second complex pattern, defined as the migrating action potential complex (MAPC), 
      occurred predominantly in the uninfected small intestine orad to the ligated 
      ileal loop. The MAPC consists of action potential discharge activity of 2.5 s or 
      longer that propagates aborally over at least two consecutive electrode sites. 
      These studies demonstrated an altered myoelectric pattern, the RBAP, 
      characteristic of invasion within the infected ligated loop. The MAPC, 
      characteristic of noninvasion, was noted in the uninfected proximal small 
      intestine.
