[Mannose dependent horse erythrocyte agglutinin specific to bovine enterotoxic E coli strains].
We show that in enterotoxic or not enterotoxic E. coli strains from various origins, enterotoxic strains of E. coli from calves only agglutin horse red cells in presence of mannose. The haemagglutinins structure, not visible with electron microscope is compatible with presence of fimbriae. It would be K 99 antigen, specific adhesiveness structure for strains from calves.
