Enterotoxin gene profile of Staphylococcus aureus isolates recovered from bovine milk produced in central Ethiopia [PDF]

Journal of Infection in Developing Countries, 2016
Introduction: Staphylococcal food intoxication is dependent on the production of enterotoxins, the single most important virulence factors. Various studies conducted in Ethiopia have depicted the prevalence of S. aureus in bovine milk.

Complex Formation between NheB and NheC Is Necessary to Induce Cytotoxic Activity by the Three-Component Bacillus cereus Nhe Enterotoxin. [PDF]

, 2013
The nonhemolytic enterotoxin (Nhe) is known as a major pathogenicity factor for the diarrheal type of food poisoning caused by Bacillus cereus. The Nhe complex consists of NheA, NheB and NheC, all of them required to reach maximum cytotoxicity following ...

Characterization of Staphylococcus aureus Enterotoxin L [PDF]

, 2003
Staphylococcus aureus causes a wide variety of diseases. Major virulence factors of this organism include enterotoxins (SEs) that cause both food poisoning and toxic shock syndrome.

PRODUCTION OF STAPHYLOCOCCAL ENTEROTOXIN-D IN FOODS BY LOW-ENTEROTOXIN-PRODUCING STAPHYLOCOCCI

, 2015
The goal of this investigation was to determine whether staphylococcal strains producing enterotoxins at nanogram levels per milliliter in laboratory medium, not detectable by gel diffusion methods, could produce sufficient enterotoxin in foods to result

Prevalence and Virulence Determinants of Staphylococcus aureus in Wholesale and Retail Pork in Wuhan, Central China

Foods, 2022
Staphylococcus aureus is one of the major foodborne pathogens and can cause serious foodborne illness in humans by foods contaminated with S. aureus enterotoxins. In recent years, livestock-associated S.

Role of CD44 and its v7 isoform in staphylococcal enterotoxin B-induced toxic shock : CD44 deficiency on hepatic mononuclear cells leads to reduced activation-induced apoptosis that results in increased liver damage [PDF]

, 2005
Exposure to bacterial superantigens such as staphylococcal enterotoxin B (SEB) leads to the induction of toxic shock syndrome which results in multiorgan failure, including liver damage.

Antibiotic sensitivity patterns and molecular detection of Enterotoxin genes in Staphylococcus aureus isolated from frozen muscle foods

Croatian Journal of Food Science and Technology, 2023
Stapylococcus aureus is considered to be the most common pathogen in commonly consumed and improperly stored frozen foods. Hence, this study investigated the antibiotic sensitivity patterns and the occurrence of enterotoxin genes (sea and seb) in S ...

Homologs of bacterial heat-labile enterotoxin subunit A contribute to development, stress response, and virulence in filamentous entomopathogenic fungus Beauveria bassiana

Frontiers in Immunology, 2023
IntroductionEnterotoxigenic bacteria commonly excrete heat-labile enterotoxins (LT) as virulence factors that consist of one subunit A (LTA) and five B subunits (LTB).
