Usually arise be- cause of fecal contamination.Intestinal bacilli that are gram-negative, sugar-digesting, and both aerobic and anaerobic. They are usually from the family Enterobacteriaceae; Escherichia coli is the best known of the group.A group of bacteria whose presence in drinking water is suggestive of fecal contamination.Bacteria, such as Escherichia coli, that live in the intestine.A group of Gram-negative rod-like bacteria that are normally found in the gastrointestinal tract and have the ability to ferment the sugar lactose. It includes the genera Enterobacter, Escherichia, and Klebsiella.A cluster of elongated bacteria residing in the intestinal tract.
