Microarray-based screening of differentially expressed genes of E. coli O157:H7 Sakai during preharvest survival on butterhead lettuce [PDF]
Numerous outbreaks of Escherichia coli O157:H7 have been linked to the consumption of leafy vegetables. However, up to the present, little has been known about E.

Isolation of shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli O157:H7/NM from hamburger and chicken nugget
Aims: This study was conducted to determine the prevalence rate, virulence genes and antimicrobial resistance of Escherichia coli O157:H7/NM isolated from hamburger and chicken nugget in Isfahan, Iran. Material and Methods: From June 2013 to July 2013, a

Prevalence of Escherichia coli O157 isolated from marketed raw cow milk in Kwara State, Nigeria
Escherichia coli (E. coli) is a common cause of poor milk microbial quality, often resulting from unhygienic milk handling. Here, a cross-sectional study was performed to determine the prevalence and antibiotic susceptibility profile of E.

The long polar fimbriae (lpf) operon and its flanking regions in bovine Escherichia coli O157:H43 and STEC O136:H12 strains [PDF]
Long polar fimbriae (Lpf) are intestinal adhesins and important virulence factors of pathogenic Escherichia coli strains. We cloned and sequenced the lpf2-1 operon (lpf2ABCD) and its flanking regions of an intimin- and Shiga toxin-negative E.

Rectoanal junction colonization of feedlot cattle by Escherichia coli O157:H7 and its association with supershedders and excretion dynamics [PDF]
Feedlot cattle were observed for fecal excretion of and rectoanal junction (RAJ) colonization with Escherichia coli O157:H7 to identify potential "supershedders." RAJ colonization and fecal excretion prevalences were correlated, and E.

Cattle intestinal microbiota shifts following Escherichia coli O157:H7 vaccination and colonization
Vaccination-induced Escherichia coli O157:H7-specific immune responses have been shown to reduce E. coli O157:H7 shedding in cattle. Although E. coli O157:H7 colonization is correlated with perturbations in intestinal microbial diversity, it is not yet ...

Comparative genomic analysis of a multiple antimicrobial resistant enterotoxigenic E. coli O157 lineage from Australian pigs [PDF]
© 2015 Wyrsch et al. Background: Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) are a major economic threat to pig production globally, with serogroups O8, O9, O45, O101, O138, O139, O141, O149 and O157 implicated as the leading diarrhoeal pathogens affecting ...

InstantLabs®E. coli O157 Food Safety Kit
Abstract The InstantLabs®E. coli O157 Food Safety Kit was validated against the International Organization for Standardizationreference method 16654 for the detection of Escherichia coli O157. The matrixes, raw ground beef, raw beef trim, Romaine lettuce, pasteurized apple juice, and raw ground chicken, were inoculated with appropriate ...
