The most common form of disease is one where ''A.sobria'' pathogen adheres to the surface of the intestine causing painful diarrhea, also known as [https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/B9780407013209500121 gastroenteritis]. The enterotoxin activity of the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hemolysin hemolysin] [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virulence_factor virulence factors] of ''A.sobria'' contributes to those symptoms. However, the mortality due to intestinal disease type of infection is low compared to the non-intestinal diseases caused by the ''A.sobria'' infection. | The most common form of disease is one where ''A.sobria'' pathogen adheres to the surface of the intestine causing painful diarrhea, also known as [https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/B9780407013209500121 gastroenteritis].
