title: Escherichia coli strain SMG004F8, isolated from 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 SMG004F8 was isolated from a rectal swab from an inpatient without urinary tract infection. This sequence refers to clone F8 from the patient SMG004. The other clone isolated from the rectal swab of the same inpatient is SMG04F1. TThe strain fulfils the molecular criterium to be classified as ExPEC.
