Available information regarding the occurrence and public health significance of Escherichia coli and other sanitary indicator organisms in raw and commercially processed foods and water is reviewed. Some strains of E. coli are pathogens capable of eliciting diarrhea and cholera-like diseases in humans. These organisms have been incriminated in outbreaks of food- and waterborne gastroenteritis, in both the U.S. and other parts of the world. A table shows numbers of confirmed outbreaks in the U.S. from 1968 to 1976.
