It can also cause wound infections, peritonitis, cholecystitis.
It is an important cause of neonatal meningitis.
Escherichia coli
The bacterium discovered by Theodor Escherich was Escherichia coli (E. coli). It was first described in 1885 and is a normal inhabitant of the human intestine, but some strains can cause illness.
Because E. Coli is short for it's scientific name, Escherichia Coli. And you wouldn't want to have to say that constantly in science class, would you? :)
Escherichia coli are gram negative, rod shaped bacteria. They are harmless flora, but some strains like shiga toxigenic Escherichia coli cause food poisoning. They belong to the Kingdom bacteria, phylum proteobacteria, family enterobacteriaceae, genus Escherichia and species coli.
the class Escherichia coli's in is gamma proteobacteria.
Escherichia coli belongs to the kingdom Bacteria.
The full scientific name for E. coli is Escherichia coli.
Escherichia coli, or E. coli, is a type of bacteria that can be beneficial in the human body. It helps with digestion by breaking down food and producing essential nutrients like vitamin K. E. coli also helps to prevent harmful bacteria from growing in the intestines. However, some strains of E. coli can cause illness, so it is important to maintain a healthy balance of this bacteria in the gut.

Escherichia coli is a Gram negative baccilus, it is not a yeast.
Bacteria such as Salmonella, Escherichia coli (E. coli), Listeria monocytogenes, and Campylobacter are well-known causes of foodborne illness. These pathogens can contaminate food through various means, including improper handling, cooking, and storage. However, not all bacteria cause foodborne illness; for instance, Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium are generally beneficial and are used in probiotics.
E. coli Is standard.
