Core share and HTML view are not available for this content. However, as you have access to this content, a full PDF is available via the ‘Save PDF’ action button.

The sources from which different ‘OH’ serotypes of Escherichia coli have been isolated are listed in a series of tables. It is considered that these tables should provide a basis for obtaining a greater understanding of the ecology of E. coli.
