title: [Epidemiologic evaluation of studies carried out on enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli in New Caledonia between 1983 and 1986].
abstract: Between 1983 and 1986 epidemiological surveys have been realized to study enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli in New-Caledonia. 339 ETEC strains have been studied. In this survey we have studied the relation between acute diarrheas due to ETEC and the climatology, the enterotoxicity, carbohydrate fermentation patterns, O serogroups, colonization factor antigens and antibiotypes.
