Susceptibility of the mouse intestine to heat-stable enterotoxin produced by enteropathogenic Escherichia coli of porcine origin.
Ligated intestinal loops of mice were found suitable for the assay of heat-stable enterotoxin produced by enteropathogenic Escherichia coli strains of porcine origin; loops inoculated with heat-labile enterotoxin failed to react.
