WaterborneEscherichia coliO157

Journal of Applied Microbiology, 2000
The waterborne route of Vero cytotoxin-producing E. coli (VTEC) O157 infection was first suggested in two unconnected human cases in 1985. Since then, waterborne VTEC O157 has been identified in sporadic cases and in outbreaks of illness. Recreational waters, private and municipal supplies have been implicated from microbiological, environmental and ...

Nosocomial Escherichia coli O157 infection

Journal of Hospital Infection, 2000
Nosocomial transmission of Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli O157 to two patients and three nurses is described. The index case presented with rectal bleeding rather than diarrhoea, and additional infection control measures were therefore only instituted after detection of the organism.

Survey of Escherichia coli O157 in Captive Frogs

Journal of Wildlife Diseases, 2010
To evaluate the presence of Escherichia coli O157, cloacal swabs were collected from 60 adult frogs kept as pets and analyzed by culture methods and multiplex polymerase chain reaction for stx1, stx2, and E. coli attaching and effacing (eae) and hly genes. The pathogen was isolated from two samples and both carried stx2 gene. This is believed to be the

Update on Escherichia coli O157:H7

Current Gastroenterology Reports, 2004
Escherichia coli O157:H7 infection is one of the more intriguing emerging infectious diseases of the industrialized world. The clinical importance of this organism first came to light in the 1980s and has been associated with significant morbidity and mortality in the United States.

Antibacterial Mechanism of (−)-Nortrachelogenin in Escherichia coli O157

Current Microbiology, 2015
(-)-Nortrachelogenin is a lignan belonging to group of polyphenolic compounds. Its biological properties in mammalian cells are well-studied; however, its biological effects in microorganisms remain poorly understood. Its efficacy against pathogenic bacteria, including antibiotic-resistant strains, was investigated and it was found that bacteria are ...

Verocytotoxigenic Escherichia coli O157 in camelids

Veterinary Record, 2011
WE would like to report the results of a survey of verocytotoxigenic Escherichia coli (VTEC) serogroup O157 in camelids carried out by the Veterinary Laboratories Agency (VLA). VTEC O157 has become an important human pathogen in recent years and causes a broad spectrum of illness.

Characterization of Escherichia coli serotype O157:H7

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 1988
A total of 174 strains of Escherichia coli serotype O157:H7 representing human isolates obtained from outbreaks and sporadic cases of hemorrhagic colitis, hemolytic-uremic syndrome, and nonbloody diarrheal illnesses as well as from asymptomatic carriers across Canada and the United States were examined. E.

Epidemiology and spectrum of disease of Escherichia coli O157

Current Opinion in Infectious Diseases, 2003
The Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli strains, such as E. coli O157:H7, have emerged as major diarrheal pathogens both in the United States and elsewhere. These organisms are important because gastrointestinal infection (afebrile hemorrhagic colitis) can trigger microangiopathic hemolytic anemia and renal failure (hemolytic uremic syndrome ...

Occurrence of Escherichia coli O157 in Finnish cattle

Veterinary Microbiology, 2001
Bovine faecal samples were collected during June-December 1997 at 14 major abattoirs slaughtering cattle in Finland. Escherichia coli O157 was isolated from 19 of the 1448 samples (1.31%) after enrichment and immunomagnetic separation (IMS). The positive faecal isolates originated from 16 farms and eight abattoirs. The occurrence of E.
