ETEC bacteria are common in travellers diarrhea and thus the method is useful particularly as a preventative measure for travellers intending to go to destinations in which diarrhea is common. Similarly ETEC bacteria are a common cause of scours, particularly in weanling piglets and calves. The receptor mimics can be incorporated into drinking water or feed for these animals.enPatent0020071873Pub no. WO/2005/08977548079Paton, J. [0000-0001-9807-5278]Morona, R. [0000-0001-7009-7440]
