MOLECULAR CHARACTERIZATION OF ENTEROPATHOGENIC E. COLI (EPEC) AND SHIGA-TOXIN PRODUCING E. COLI (STEC) FROM DOMESTIC ANIMALS: PREVALENCE, VIRULENCE, COLONIZATION FACTORS AND THEIR ANTIMICROBIAL RESISTANCE [PDF]
To ascertain the presence and molecular characterization of enteropathogenic and Shiga toxin E. coli, 200 fecal samples were collected from rabbits (24), slaughtered pigs (22), calves (39), poultry (41), dogs (38), sheep and goats (36).

Virulence properties of atypical EPEC strains [PDF]
Virulence properties of 31 atypical enteropathogenic Escherichia coli (EPEC) strains isolated from cases of diarrhoea were examined. All except two strains adhered to HEp-2 cells in a localised adherence-like (LAL) pattern. With the exception of two strains, all were fluorescent actin staining (FAS) positive.

Production of IgY Specific Antibody Against Entero Pathogenic Escherichia coli (EPEC) in Egg Yolk
Antibody to Enteropathogenic Eschericia coli (EPEC) K1.1. can be produced in egg yolk by the application of inactivated bacterial cells intravenously in layer chicken. The presence of specific antibody in sera and egg can be detected with immunodiffusion

Genomic Epidemiology and Machine Learning-Based Drug Discovery for Antimicrobial Resistant Diarrheagenic Escherichia coli. [PDF]
This study integrates genomic epidemiology and machine learning–based virtual screening to identify novel therapeutic candidates, Alatamide and Isosativan, with strong binding stability against multidrug‐resistant diarrheagenic Escherichia coli virulence targets, highlighting computational drug discovery as a promising strategy to combat antimicrobial ...

Oligonucleotide probe for detection of the enteropathogenic Escherichia coli (EPEC) adherence factor of localized adherent EPEC [PDF]
The enteropathogenic Escherichia coli adherence factor (EAF) probe detects isolates of enteropathogenic E. coli that exhibit localized adherence to HEp-2 cells. A 21-base oligonucleotide probe was constructed on the basis of a sequence from within the 1-kb EAF probe and was shown to have greater sensitivity and specificity than the EAF fragment probe ...
