Virulence-related O islands in enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli O157:H7
Gut Microbes, 2021 Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) O157:H7 is a principally foodborne pathogen linked to serious diseases, including bloody diarrhea, hemorrhagic colitis, and hemolytic uremic syndrome.

Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli O157, Kinshasa
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2004 To the Editor: During the rainy season, from April to September 2003, 463 children ≤15 years of age (median 10 months) with severe diarrhea were admitted to the Pediatric Hospital of Kalembelembe in Kinshasa, the capital of the Democratic Republic of Congo. The population of the outbreak area was approximately one million.

Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli Adhesins [PDF]
Microbiology Spectrum, 2014 ABSTRACT Adhesins are a group of proteins in enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) that are involved in the attachment or colonization of this pathogen to abiotic (plastic or steel) and biological surfaces, such as those found in bovine and human intestines.

What Makes an Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli? [PDF]
Clinical Infectious Diseases, 2006 dothelial homeostasis, leading to HUS. However, recent reports on the association between HUS and Stx-negative E. coli strains [2] suggest that additional determinants of EHEC may also contribute to HUS development. Certainly, only a portion of Stx-producing bacteria are able to cause HUS.

Acid tolerance of enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli [PDF]
Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 1995 Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) strains were tested for their ability to survive in acid pH at 37 degrees C. No loss of viability was observed in an O157:H7 EHEC strain (ATCC 43895) at pH levels of 3.0 and 2.5 for at least 5 h. The level of acid tolerance of most EHEC isolates was very high, similar to that of Shigella flexneri strains.
