Transforming Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli surveillance through whole genome sequencing in food safety practices

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2023
IntroductionShiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) is a gastrointestinal pathogen causing foodborne outbreaks. Whole Genome Sequencing (WGS) in STEC surveillance holds promise in outbreak prevention and confinement, in broadening STEC epidemiology

Enteroaggregative Escherichia coli [PDF]

open access: yesThe Lancet Infectious Diseases, 2001
Enteroaggregative Escherichia coli (EAEC) are an increasingly important cause of diarrhoea. E. coli belonging to this category cause watery diarrhoea, which is often persistent and can be inflammatory. EAEC have been implicated in sporadic diarrhoea in children and adults, in both developing and developed countries, and have been identified as the ...

Preferential attachment of Escherichia coli to different particle size fractions of an agricultural grassland soil. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
This study reports on the attachment preference of a faecally derived bacterium, Escherichia coli, to soil particles of defined size fractions. In a batch sorption experiment using a clay loam soil it was found that 35% of introduced E.

Genomic Characterization of Prevalent mcr-1, mcr-4, and mcr-5 Escherichia coli Within Swine Enteric Colibacillosis in Spain

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2019
Antimicrobial agents are crucial for the treatment of many bacterial diseases in pigs, however, the massive use of critically important antibiotics such as colistin, fluoroquinolones and 3rd–4th-generation cephalosporins often selects for co-resistance ...

Comprehensive Statistical Evaluation of Etest®, UMIC®, MicroScan and Disc Diffusion versus Standard Broth Microdilution: Workflow for an Accurate Detection of Colistin-Resistant and Mcr-Positive E. coli

open access: yesAntibiotics, 2020
Four colistin susceptibility testing methods were compared with the standard broth microdilution (BMD) in a collection of 75 colistin-susceptible and 75 mcr-positive E. coli, including ST131 isolates.

Surface proteins of Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli mediate association with milk fat globules in raw milk

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2023
IntroductionBy adhering to host cells and colonizing tissues, bacterial pathogens can successfully establish infection. Adhesion is considered the first step of the infection process and bacterial adhesion to anti-adhesive compounds is now seen as a ...

Escherichia coli [PDF]

open access: yesBiochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2009
AbstractDiverse biological data may be used to create illustrations of molecules in their cellular context. I describe the scientific results that support a recent textbook illustration of an Escherichia coli cell. The image magnifies a portion of the bacterium at one million times, showing the location and form of individual macromolecules.

Is there a Pullulanase in Escherichia coli? [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Biochemistry, 1974
No pullulanase activity could be detected in maltose-grown cultures of 11 different strains of Escherichia coli. Neither these strains, nor 40 other strains of the same species would grow on pullulan, while all of them grew on maltose and some were shown to grow on maltotriose the exclusive product of pullulanase action on pullulan.

Fluoroquinolone-resistant Escherichia coli, Indonesia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
In a recent, population-based survey of 3,996 persons in Indonesia, fluoroquinolone (FQ)-resistant Escherichia coli was prevalent in the fecal flora of 6% of patients at hospital admission and 23% of patients at discharge, but not among healthy ...
