In Vitro ANTIBACTERIAL EFFECT OF SOME NATURAL PLANT EXTRACTS AGAINST Escherichia coli [PDF]
Six extracts-based natural antimicrobials were evaluated for their ability to inhibit the growth of Escherichia coli O157:H7, Escherichia coliNRRL3008 and Salmonella sp. Degree of inhibition was determined by the disk-diffusion assay.

Effect of long-term starvation on the survival, recovery, and carbon utilization profiles of a bovine Escherichia coli O157:H7 isolate from New Zealand [PDF]
The ability to maintain a dual lifestyle of colonizing the ruminant gut and surviving in nonhost environments once shed is key to the success of Escherichia coli O157:H7 as a zoonotic pathogen.

Genetically similar strains of Escherichia coli O157:H7 isolated from sheep, cattle and human patients [PDF]
Conclusions: The same pathogenic subtypes of VTEC O157:H7, including the highly virulent clade 8, appear to be present in both sheep and cattle in Sweden, suggesting strains can circulate freely between ruminant ...

Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli, like E. coli O157:H7, are important human and animal pathogens. Naturally-acquired E. coli O157:H7 infections occur in numerous species but, particularly, cattle have been identified as a significant reservoir for ...

Generation of gene deletions and gene replacements in Escherichia coli O157:H7 using a temperature sensitive allelic exchange system [PDF]
In this work we describe protocols for the generation of gene deletions and gene replacements using a temperature sensitive plasmid in Escherichia coli O157:H7.

Expression and regulation of the Escherichia coli O157:H7 effector proteins NleH1 and NleH2 [PDF]
E. coli O157 carries two genes encoding the effector proteins NleH1 and NleH2 which are 87% identical. Despite the similarity between the proteins, the promoter regions upstream of the genes encoding the effectors are more divergent suggesting that the ...

Anti-Biofilm Activities of Manuka Honey against Escherichia coli O157:H7
Manuka honey (MH) has been shown anti-bacterial activity against several pathogenic bacteria. However, the inhibitory effect of MH on biofilm formation by Escherichia coli O157:H7 has not yet been examined. In this study, MH significantly reduced E. coli

Transmission and quantification of verocytotoxin-producing Escherichia coli O157 in dairy cattle and calves [PDF]
Data from a field study of 14 months duration in a naturally colonized dairy herd and data from an experiment with calves were used to quantify transmission of verocytotoxin-producing Escherichia coli (VTEC O157) in cattle.

Topological Data Analysis of Escherichia coli O157:H7 and Non-O157 Survival in Soils
Shiga toxin-producing E. coli O157:H7 and non-O157 have been implicated in many foodborne illnesses caused by the consumption of contaminated fresh produce.
