    Author: Lavigne JP, Boutet-Dubois A, Laouini D, Combescure C, Bouziges N, Marès P, Sotto A.
    Journal: J Clin Microbiol; 2011 Nov; 49(11):3950-3. PubMed ID: 21918033.
    Abstract:
    We compared the virulence properties of a collection of asymptomatic bacteriuria (ABU) Escherichia coli strains to urinary tract infection (UTI) strains isolated from pregnant women in a university hospital over 1 year. The in vitro and in vivo studies suggest that ABU strains presented a virulence behavior similar to that of strains isolated from cases of cystitis.
