摘要：

Escherichia coli serotype O157:H7 was detected among bacteria collected from the Ganges River. O157:117 isolates tested positive for stx(1), stx(2), and eae gene sequences. Identification of potentially pathogenic isolates from extensively used source water indicates that O157:H7 may be a significant but as yet underacknowledged public health concern in India.
