Resumen

INTRODUCTION. Detection of enteroaggregative strains of Escherichia coli (EAEC) by the gold standard technique (cellular adherence) is difficult to implement in routine clinical practice. METHODS. The gold standard was compared with a PCR method for this purpose. RESULTS. With respect to the cellular adherence technique, PCR performance was as follows: sensitivity 0.93, specificity 1, positive predictive value 1, and negative predictive value 0.91. CONCLUSION. The PCR method studied is a viable alternative for routine detection of EAEC strains.
