Natural infection with an attaching and effacing Escherichia coli in the small and large intestines of a calf with diarrhoea.
Attaching and effacing Escherichia coli were identified in the small and large intestine of a calf with naturally occurring diarrhoea. The organisms were associated with intestinal lesions and were identified by immunoperoxidase staining and transmission and scanning electron microscopy, but they did not produce Shiga-like toxin (verotoxin).
