In the American continent, diarrheal disease and other health complications caused byEscherichia coliconstitute a major public health problem, and, therefore, several research groups have dedicated their effort to understand this pathogen and provide feasible solutions to prevent, treat and reduceE. coliinfections. The Latin American Coalition forEscherichia coliResearch (LACER) was created as a multidisciplinary network of international research groups working withE. coliwith the ultimate goal of advancing understanding ofE. coli, and to prepare the next generation of AmericanE. coliinvestigators. As such, this book compiles the knowledge of these investigators aboutE. coli, a commensal bacteria living inside its host, and a pathogen causing disease in animals and humans. Escherichia coli in the Americascontains a series of 15 chapters written by experts, covering basic concepts regarding the different categories ofE. coli, including their environmental niche, virulence mechanisms, host reservoir, and disease outcomes, as well as diagnosis, vaccine development and treatment.
