tcpC as a prospective new virulence marker in blood Escherichia coli isolates from sepsis patients admitted to the intensive care unit

The prevalence of the tcpC in the blood Escherichia coli isolates collected from the sepsis patients admitted to the intensive care unit was investigated for the first time. The blood and faecal samples were collected from sepsis and nonsepsis patients, respectively. The prevalence of the tcpC and p...

description The prevalence of the tcpC in the blood Escherichia coli isolates collected from the sepsis patients admitted to the intensive care unit was investigated for the first time. The blood and faecal samples were collected from sepsis and nonsepsis patients, respectively. The prevalence of the tcpC and phylogroups was confirmed by gene-specific PCR. The occurrence of the tcpC in the blood E. coli isolates from sepsis patients was significantly higher than the faecal isolates. The higher prevalence of blood E. coli isolates among the pathogenic groups (B2, D) compared to the commensal groups (A, B1) suggests tcpC as a prospective new virulence marker for sepsis.
