1. INTRODUCTION. In 1917, Alfred Nissle isolated a strain of Escherichia coli from a German soldier that survived a Shigella outbreak 1.That strain became known as E. coli Nissle 1917 (EcN) or Mutaflor and was observed to have high antagonistic activity against different pathogenic organisms 2.To date, EcN has been shown in vitro to protect against invasion of pathogens such as Salmonella Whilst OMVs have been studied to the greatest extent in the context of Gram-negative pathogens, attention is turning to their significance in probiotic and commensal strains, including E. coli Nissle 1917 and ECOR63, respectively (Alvarez et al., 2016), however more precise characterisation of their composition and relevance to QS is required.

E. coli: there is more to this bacterium than meets the eye. Did you know that most strains are harmless, live normally in the human gut, and some also possess Mutaflor® Suspension is a remedy for the treatment of diarrhoea in infants, toddlers, and children. Moreover, Mutaflor® Suspension promotes the development of the defence powers of the human body.
