  • Abstract
    Fifty urine samples were collected from patients with urinary tract infections and a 50 stool specimens from diarrhoeal patients . These samples were investigated bacteriologically. The invitro adherence test of Enteropathogenic and Uropathogenic E. coli to healthy human buccal epithelial cells was carried out. The results show no significant differences in the mean adhesion of these bacteria (two sources) on the epithelial cells as compard with the control . but there is a little variation among EPEC isolates and among UPEC isolates too as compared with the control
