Concurrent infection of pigs with enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli of different serogroups.
Naturally occurring dual infections with Escherichia coli of different serogroups occurred in 12 pigs 2 to 14 days of age. In each case, one isolate was hemolytic and produced K88 pili and the other was nonhemolytic and produced either K99 or 987P pili.
