The purpose of this study was to determine if poultry E. coli and human ExPEC from Brazil demonstrate phenotypic and genetic similarities, to evaluate whether Brazilian poultry represent a potential source of E. coli that can cause extraintestinal diseases in humans.

These strains were isolated from January to April 2014, in the Ribeira˜o Preto region, SP, Brazil from the cloaca of (1) commercial broiler chickens from two slaughterhouses, and (2) backyard chickens from seven small backyard farms (mostly family farms in urban and periurban centers). The slaughterhouses and backyard farms were within 100 km from the hospital. Poultry isolates were recovered according to a previous work
