Saeid Bouzari Annamma Varghese Cytolethal distending toxin CLDT production by enteropathogenic Eschrichia coli EPEC FEMS Microbiology Letters Volume 71 Issue 12 September 1990 Pages 193–198 https//doiorg/101111/j157469681990tb03821xCulture supernates of 16 strains of EPEC belonging to 6 different serogroups when assayed on Chinese Hamster Ovary CHO cells up to 96–120 h induced distinct morphological changes The supernate activities were heatlabile unrelated to heatlabile enterotoxin LT verotoxin VT or hemolysin did not show necrosis in rabbit skin and caused no fluid secretion in the rabbit ileal loop assay RILA Simulatneous production of CLDT and heatstable enterotoxin ST were detected in four EPEC strains
