Biocontrol of Escherichia coli O157 with O157-Specific Bacteriophages [PDF]
ABSTRACT Escherichia coli O157 antigen-specific bacteriophages were isolated and tested to determine their ability to lyse laboratory cultures of Escherichia coli O157:H7. A total of 53 bovine or ovine fecal samples were enriched for phage, and 5 of these samples were found to contain lytic ...

X-ray microtomographic visualization of Escherichia coli by metalloprotein overexpression [PDF]
This paper reports X-ray microtomographic visualization of the microorganism Escherichia coli overexpressing a metalloprotein ferritin. The three-dimensional distribution of linear absorption coefficients determined using a synchrotron radiation microtomograph with a simple projection geometry revealed that the X-ray absorption was homogeneously ...

Identification of the long polar fimbriae gene variants in the locus of enterocyte effacement-negative Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli strains isolated from humans and cattle in Argentina [PDF]
The long polar fimbriae (Lpf) is one of few adhesive factors of Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) and it is associated with colonization of the intestine. Studies have demonstrated the presence of lpf genes in several pathogenic E.

Role of Musca domestica and Stomoxys calcitrans as a vector of Escherichia coli O157:H7 from different sites in Baghdad/ Iraq [PDF]
This study was designed to approve the roles of house fly (HF) Musca domestica and Stable fly (SF) Stomoxys calcitrans as a vector for Escherichia coli O157: H7.
