Escherichia coli and other Enterobacteriaceae infections:
Diagnosis
(Professional Guide to Diseases (Eighth Edition))
Because certain strains of E. coli normally reside in the GI tract, culturing is of little value; a working diagnosis depends on clinical observation. However, if E. coli 0157:H7 is suspected, notify the laboratory so that appropriate testing of stool specimens can be performed.
A firm diagnosis requires sophisticated identification procedures, such as bioassays, that are expensive, time-consuming and, consequently, not widely available. Diagnosis must rule out salmonellosis and shigellosis, other common infections that produce similar signs and symptoms.
