Examination of enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli H10407 (colonization factor antigen I+) by scanning electron microscopy with conductive staining.

RESUMO

We have used the scanning electron microscope to examine enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli H10407, which expresses colonization factor antigen I pili. The use of low accelerating voltages and conductive staining procedures allowed us to obtain images of colonization factor antigen I pili and other structural details which were obscured by conventional gold-coating techniques.
