| melanosis coli | Melanosis of the large intestinal mucosa due to accumulation of pigment of uncertain composition within macrophages in the lamina propria. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| coli granuloma | <veterinary> A granulomatous disease of the intestines and liver of chickens, due to coliform organisms. Synonym: coli granuloma. (05 Mar 2000) |
| pneumatosis coli | A usually benign condition in which gas is seen radiographically in the wall of the colon; sometimes associated with obstructive lung disease. (05 Mar 2000) |
| haustra coli | <anatomy> The sacculations of the colon, caused by the teniae, or longitudinal bands, which are slightly shorter than the gut so that the latter is thrown into tucks or pouches. Synonym: haustra coli, haustrations of colon, sacculation of colon. (05 Mar 2000) |
| stratum circulare tunicae muscularis coli | Circular layer of muscular coat of colon. (05 Mar 2000) |
| stratum longitudinale tunicae muscularis coli | Longitudinal layer of the muscular tunic of the colon. (05 Mar 2000) |
| E. Coli | <bacteria> The archetypal bacterium for biochemists, used very extensively in experimental work. A rod shaped gram-negative bacillus (0.5 x 3-5 m) abundant in the large intestine (colon) of mammals. Abbreviation: E. Coli (18 Nov 1997) |
| E. Coli enteritis | <gastroenterology, pathology> A form of gastroenteritis that is through travel to developing countries. most often caused by a toxigenic E. Coli bacteria. Other causative agents include: Shigella, Vibrio parahaemolyticus, Rotavirus, Giardia and amoebas. Symptoms include diarrhoea, vomiting, abdominal pain and anorexia. (10 Nov 1998) |
| Entamoeba coli | Nonpathogenic species that occurs in the large intestine of man, other primates, dogs, and possibly pigs; often confused with Entamoeba histolytica, but distinguished by nuclear details and by the number of nuclei and the form of chromatoidals in the cyst. (05 Mar 2000) |
| enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli | Enterohemorrhagic strains of Escherichia coli, usually of the serotype 0157:H7; produces a toxin resembling that produced by Shigella; associated with damage to the epithelium, ischemia of the bowel, and necrosis of the colon. Apparently responsible for a haemorrhagic form of colitis without fever, which can be very severe, spread primarily by contaminated beef. May also cause microangiopathic haemolytic anaemia, renal failure, and the haemolytic uraemic syndrome. (05 Mar 2000) |
| enteroinvasive Escherichia coli | Enteroinvasive strain of Escherichia coli penetrates gut mucosa and multiplies in colon epithelial cells, resulting in shigellosis-like changes of the mucosa. This strain produces a severe diarrhoeal illness that can resemble shigellosis except for the absence of vomiting and shorter duration of illness. (05 Mar 2000) |
| enteropathogenic Escherichia coli | Enteropathogenic strain of Escherichia coli; organisms adhere to small bowel mucosa and produce characteristic changes in the microvilli. This strain produces symptomatic, sometimes serious, gastrointestinal illnesses, especially severe in neonates and young children; typically it produces toxins, one of which is heat-labile, resembling that produced by Vibrio cholerae, the other heat-stable. (05 Mar 2000) |
| enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli | Enterotoxigenic strain of Escherichia coli; attaches to the duodenum or proximal small intestine mucosa, where it forms heat-stable and heat-labile toxins that activate adenylate cyclase, causing wasting diarrhoea. Responsible for 40-70% of traveler's diarrhoea; chiefly water-borne via human faeces. Most important cause of diarrhoea among infants living in tropical areas. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Escherichia coli | <bacteria> The archetypal bacterium for biochemists, used very extensively in experimental work. A rod shaped gram-negative bacillus (0.5 x 3-5 m) abundant in the large intestine (colon) of mammals. Abbreviation: E. Coli (18 Nov 1997) |
| escherichia coli infections | Infections with bacteria of the species escherichia coli. (12 Dec 1998) |
