Escherichia coli O157 infections and unpasteurised milk

Eurosurveillance, 2001
We report on two children with Escherichia coli O157 infection, one of whom developed haemolytic uraemic syndrome (HUS). Both had drunk raw cows’ or goats’ milk in the week before their illness. Molecular subtyping identified a sorbitol fermenting Escherichia coli O157:H isolate from a dairy cow.

Survival of Escherichia coli O157:H7 in soils from Jiangsu Province, China. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
Escherichia coli O157:H7 (E. coli O157:H7) is recognized as a hazardous microorganism in the environment and for public health. The E. coli O157:H7 survival dynamics were investigated in 12 representative soils from Jiangsu Province, where the largest E.

Diffusion properties of single FoF1-ATP synthases in a living bacterium unraveled by localization microscopy [PDF]

, 2012
FoF1-ATP synthases in Escherichia coli (E. coli) bacteria are membrane-bound enzymes which use an internal proton-driven rotary double motor to catalyze the synthesis of adenosine triphosphate (ATP). According to the 'chemiosmotic hypothesis', a series of proton pumps generate the necessary pH difference plus an electric potential across the bacterial ...

Enteropathogen survival in soil from different land-uses is predominantly regulated by microbial community composition [PDF]

, 2015
peer-reviewedMicrobial enteropathogens can enter the environment via landspreading of animal slurries and manures. Biotic interactions with the soil microbial community can contribute to their subsequent decay.

Effect of long-term starvation on the survival, recovery, and carbon utilization profiles of a bovine Escherichia coli O157:H7 isolate from New Zealand [PDF]

, 2014
The ability to maintain a dual lifestyle of colonizing the ruminant gut and surviving in nonhost environments once shed is key to the success of Escherichia coli O157:H7 as a zoonotic pathogen.

Forging a New Frontier: Antimicrobial Peptides and Nanotechnology Converging to Conquer Gastrointestinal Pathogens

Small, EarlyView.
This review explores the potential of antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) and nanotechnology for the treatment of gastrointestinal infections. It analyzes bacterial resistance mechanisms, the antimicrobial actions of AMPs, and advances in nanocarriers, such as lipid‐based, polymeric, metallic, and mesoporous silica systems, that enhance peptide protection ...

Pressure and temperature dependence of growth and morphology of Escherichia coli: Experiments and Stochastic Model [PDF]

, 2012
We have investigated the growth of Escherichia coli E.coli, a mesophilic bacterium, as a function of pressure $P$ and temperature $T$. E.coli can grow and divide in a wide range of pressure (1-400atm) and temperature ($23-40^{\circ}$C). For $T>30^{\circ}$ C, the division time of E.coli increases exponentially with pressure and exhibit a departure from ...

Inter- and intra-species interactions between meat plant environmental bacteria and a non-biofilm-forming Escherichia coli O157:H7 strain in co-culture biofilms. [PDF]

Front Microbiol
This study evaluated the impact of meat-processing environmental bacteria (MPB) on biofilm formation by Escherichia coli O157:H7 in dual-species cultures. Biofilm development by 50 MPB and E. coli O157:H7 was assessed using crystal violet staining.
