Identification of escherchia coli K1 polysaccharide antigen isolated from urine specimens of urinary tract infections in children were performed from of 1992 to 1993 in Kyoto, Japan.

And, one strain (O18:H￣, isolation rate: 7.1%) of E. coli K1 polysaccharide antigen among 14 strains were isolated from urine specimens of urinary tract infections in children by the bacteriophage test.
