The assays will be useful for surveillance of ETEC infections in diagnostic laboratories that have access to PCR.enEnterotoxigenic Escherichia coliMicrobiologyMultiplex polymerase chain reactionMultiplexBiologyColonizationToxinEscherichia coliVirologyPolymerase chain reactionDevelopment of Multiplex PCR Assays for Detection of Enterotoxigenic <i>Escherichia coli</i> Colonization Factors and Toxinsarticle
