Citrobacter, Enterobacter, E. coli NOT O157:H7 and Klebsiella are certainly lactose fermenters, but are NOT considered enteric pathogens. I know this because I see them in stool cultures with normal enteric flora all the time. The only morphologies we screen on stool plates are nonlactose fermenters and nonsorbitol fermenters in the case of EC O157:H7.
Proteus is NOT an enteric pathogen either. Where are you getting your information? You sound confused, Ig F.
