title: Escherichia coli SMG005F3, isolated from rectal swab of an inpatient without UTI
organism: Escherichia coli
description: This strain is part of a comparative study evaluating E. coli clones isolated from the gut of hospitalized patients with strains causing urinary tract infection in one single center. The Escherichia coli strain SMG005F3 was isolated from a rectal swab from an inpatient without urinary tract infection. This sequence refers to clone F3 from the patient SMG005. The other clone isolated from the rectal swab of the same inpatient is SMG005F2. The strain fulfils the molecular criteria to be classified as UPEC and ExPEC.
