Transient drift of Escherichia coli under diffusing Step nutrient profile [PDF]
Bacteria such as Escherichia coli (E. coli) exhibit biased motion if kept in a spatially non-uniform chemical environment. Here, we bring out unique time-dependent characteristics of bacterial chemotaxis, in response to a diffusing spatial step ligand profile.

The DNA band patterns generated by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) using the du2 primer and template DNAs from various strains of Escherichia coli and non-E. coli bacteria were compared. Among three to five prominent bands produced, the three bands at about 1.8, 2.7, and 5.0 kb were detected in all of the E. coli O157 strains tested. Some nonpathogenic

Background: Escherichia coli O157:H7 is one of the high risk bacteria, found in foods, especially in ready-to-eat products, which causes many disorders such as hemorrhagic colitis, hemolytic uremic syndrome and dysentery in humans.

Herd-level risk factors associated with the presence of Phage type 21/28 E. coli O157 on Scottish cattle farms [PDF]
<p>Background: E. coli O157 is a bacterial pathogen that is shed by cattle and can cause severe disease in humans. Phage type (PT) 21/28 is a subtype of E.
