Rapid latex particle agglutination test for Escherichia coli strains of porcine origin producing heat-labile enterotoxin

J Clin Microbiol. 1983 Dec;18(6):1417-8. doi: 10.1128/jcm.18.6.1417-1418.1983.

Abstract

A latex particle agglutination test previously shown to be suitable for the rapid identification of Escherichia coli strains of human origin producing heat-labile enterotoxin (R. A. Finkelstein and Z. Yang, J. Clin. Microbiol. 18:23-28) is equally applicable to strains of porcine origin.
