Revisiting the STEC Testing Approach: Using espK and espV to Make Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) Detection More Reliable in Beef

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2016
Current methods for screening Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) O157 and non-O157 in beef enrichments typically rely on the molecular detection of stx, eae, and serogroup-specific wzx or wzy gene fragments.

Structural elucidation of the O-antigenic polysaccharide from enterohemorrhagic (EHEC) Escherichia coli O48:H21

Carbohydrate Research, 2006
The structure of the antigenic O-polysaccharide (O-PS) of the lipopolysaccharide (LPS) produced by the enterohemorrhagic strain of Escherichia coli O48:H21 (EHEC) has been elucidated. The O-PS obtained by mild acid hydrolysis of the LPS had [alpha]D +95 (water) and was composed of L-rhamnose (L-Rha), D-galactose (D-Gal), 2-amino-2-deoxy-D-glucose (D ...

Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) in Pediatric Hemolytic-Uremic Syndrome: A Prospedtive Study in Germany and Austria*

Infection, 1999
Studies from Europe indicate that infections with enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) non-O157:H7 strains are increasing in frequency as a cause of hemolytic-uremic syndrome (HUS). In 1997 a prospective study was performed in Germany and Austria to assess the distribution of EHEC serotypes, to characterize the clinical course and to examine ...

[Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) infection in infants and children].

Nihon rinsho. Japanese journal of clinical medicine, 2013
In the past 10 years, enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) infection in infants and children has not been decreased in Japan. Clinical manifestations may include history of diarrhea, a visibly bloody stool, fever, and abdominal tenderness those last for about 2 weeks and restore naturally.

Inactivation of Escherichia coliK-12 and enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) by atmospheric pressure plasma

Journal of Agricultural Science and Applications, 2014
Foodborne diseases are often related to the consumption of microbially contaminated fresh produce. Infections occur due to Norovirus, Listeria or Samonella. However, contaminations with Escherichia coli and its pathovar EHEC (enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli) also result in serious health problems. To reduce/prevent microbial contaminations, cleaning

Self-reporting hydrogels rapidly differentiate among enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) and non-virulent Escherichia coli (K12)

European Polymer Journal, 2016
Abstract We report on the development of an autonomously reporting indicator hydrogel for the rapid and selective detection of enzymes secreted by the food-borne biosafety level 3 pathogen enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (E. coli) O157:H7 (EHEC) and the differentiation of this pathogen from the non-virulent E. coli strain K12.

[New knowledge of the molecular biology of enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) O157].

Gesundheitswesen (Bundesverband der Arzte des Offentlichen Gesundheitsdienstes (Germany)), 2000
Since 1982, enterohaemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) have been identified as a cause of diarrhoea and haemorrhagic colitis. The most serious complication of the infection is the haemolytic-uraemic syndrome (HUS) that develops in 5 to 10% of children with diarrhoea.

Applicability of DiversiLab Repetitive Sequence-Based PCR Method in Epidemiological Typing of Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC)

Foodborne Pathogens and Disease, 2013
Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) causes diarrhea, often with severe complications. Rapid and discriminatory typing of EHEC using advanced molecular methods is needed for determination of the genetic relatedness of clones responsible for foodborne outbreaks and for finding out the ...

A multiplex-PCR method to detect enterohemorrhagic (EHEC) and enteropathogenic (EPEC) Escherichia coli in artificially contaminated foods

International Journal of Hygiene and Environmental Health, 2000
In view of the considerable public health risk of the enteropathogenic (EPEC) and enterohemorrhagic (EHEC) Escherichia coli, a multiplex-PCR based method was used for the amplification of the slt genes and of the eaeA gene. Three pairs of primers, different from the oligonucleotides previously used by other authors, were exploited for the amplification.

[Bacterial agglutination test for diagnosis of enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli(EHEC) infection].

Nihon rinsho. Japanese journal of clinical medicine, 1997
Bacterial agglutination(BA) test was used to detect anti-E. coli somatic(O26, O111, O157) antibodies. A total of 355-serum samples were collected from 45 patients were positive by culture for E. coli O157:H7 (group I), from 47 HUS patients without EHEC(group II), from 50 family members of group I and II, from 22 patients of diarrhea with or without ...
