The enzymatic signs and serological characteristics of Escherichia enterotoxigenic strains isolated from patients with acute intestinal diseases and from healthy persons were studied. The cultures were subdivided into 24 enzymatic variants and classified with 48 serogroups and 61 serovars. The enterotoxigenic properties of the strains were compared with their serological characteristics and enzymatic signs. The strains, isolated from different persons and classified with the same serovar, belonged to the same variant with respect to the type of enterotoxin they produced (only thermostable enterotoxin, only thermolabile enterotoxin, or both), were similar in the degree of their toxigenicity and belonged, as a rule, to the same enzymatic variant. The data on the presence of manifest interrelation between the enteropathogenicity of Escherichia and their structure, as well as on the stability of the enterotoxigenic properties of these organisms, indicate that in acute intestinal diseases the determination of Escherichia enterotoxigenic strains can be carried out by common bacteriological techniques with the use of specific agglutinating sera.
