Use of two different recipients and application of both auto-transfer and mobilization methodologies enhanced chances of transfer of enterotoxigenicity. Comparison of plasmid profiles of the donors and transconjugants with that of enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli 10407 revealed the presence of a common plasmid DNA band. %P 496-499 %V 85 %D 1987 %I ICMR %L open645
