The B subunit of Escherichia coli heat-labile toxin alters the development and antigen-presenting capacity of dendritic cells [PDF]

, 2015
Escherichia coli’s heat-labile enterotoxin (Etx) and its non-toxic B subunit (EtxB) have been characterized as adjuvants capable of enhancing T cell responses to co-administered antigen.

Efficacy and Safety of the Enterosorbent Silicolgel in Irritable Bowel Syndrome, IBS‐D and IBS‐M: A Randomized, Double‐Blind, Placebo‐Controlled, Multi‐Center Trial

Neurogastroenterology &Motility, EarlyView.
Current treatments often fall short in managing IBS effectively. Silicolgel, an enterosorbent, reduced IBS and other gastrointestinal symptoms in 90% of IBS patients compared to 20% in those on placebo. Enterosorbents are not currently recommended for IBS; silicolgel is a widely available, affordable option for patients with IBS‐D and IBS‐M.

In Situ Analyses Directly in Diarrheal Stool Reveal Large Variations in Bacterial Load and Active Toxin Expression of Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli and Vibrio cholerae

mSphere, 2018
The bacterial pathogens enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) and Vibrio cholerae are major causes of diarrhea. ETEC causes diarrhea by production of the heat-labile toxin (LT) and heat-stable toxins (STh and STp), while V.

Investigation of the Abundance of Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus (Including Virulence Gene Profiles) and Heavy Metal Contamination in Camel Milk

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 11, Issue 6, November 2025.
GRAPHICAL ABSTRACT Camel milk exhibited Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli contamination with associated antibiotic resistance and virulence genes. Concurrently, heavy metal levels (Pb, As and Cd) in these samples were low and below safety limits, providing a comprehensive assessment of dual hazards in this vital food source.

Influence of soft cheese technology on the growth and enterotoxin production of Staphylococcus aureus

Czech Journal of Food Sciences, 2009
The aim of this study was to monitor S. aureus growth and toxin production in soft cheese during the technological processing. In model experiments, raw milk was inoculated separately with five S. aureus strains isolated from milk and milk products.
