Molecular Characterization of Escherichia coli Strains Isolated from Different Food Sources

Food Technology and Biotechnology, 2014
Since food represents a possible source of pathogenic and antibiotic-resistant Escherichia coli strains, we analyzed 84 isolates from food samples identified in 2007 and 2008 at the National Institute of Public Health in Slovenia.

Secreted proteases: A new insight in the pathogenesis of extraintestinal pathogenic Escherichia coli

International Journal of Medical Microbiology, 2019
Bacterial secreted proteases are the key factors that increase the virulence potential of different pathogens. Extraintestinal pathogenic E. coli (ExPEC) is a distinct pathotype that has unique ability to infect various body sites apart from the gastrointestinal tract causing several life-threatening diseases both in human and animals.

Sequence Variability of P2-Like Prophage Genomes Carrying the Cytolethal Distending Toxin V Operon in Escherichia coli O157 [PDF]

, 2013
Cytolethal distending toxins (CDT) are potent cytotoxins of several Gram-negative pathogenic bacteria, including Escherichia coli, in which five types (CDT-I to CDT-V) have been identified so far.

Antimicrobial resistant and extended‐spectrum β‐lactamase producing Escherichia coli in common wild bird species in Switzerland

MicrobiologyOpen, 2019
A total of 294 fecal swabs from 294 wild birds in Switzerland were cultivated for antimicrobial resistant (AMR) Escherichia coli. Samples were also subcultivated to detect E.

Escherichia coli isolates from extraintestinal organs of livestock animals harbour diverse virulence genes and belong to multiple genetic lineages [PDF]

, 2012
Escherichia coli, the most common cause of bacteraemia in humans in the UK, can also cause serious diseases in animals. However the population structure, virulence and antimicrobial resistance genes of those from extraintestinal organs of livestock ...

Virulence-associated genes, resistance genes and adhesion and probiotic activity tested by a new screening method [PDF]

, 2013
We established an automated screening method to characterize adhesion of Escherichia coli to intestinal porcine epithelial cells (IPEC-J2) and their probiotic activity against infection by enteropathogenic E. coli (EPEC). 104 intestinal E.

Phenotypic and genotypic characterization of Escherichia coli isolated from the chicken liver in relation to slaughterhouse conditions

Heliyon
Avian pathogenic Escherichia coli (APEC) has been identified as a sub-group of extraintestinal pathogenic E. coli (ExPEC). Recent studies indicate APEC as a potential foodborne zoonotic pathogen and a source or reservoir of human extraintestinal ...

Hemorrhagic cystitis caused by extraintestinal pathogenic Escherichia coli in a dog (Canis lupus familiaris)

Brazilian Journal of Veterinary Pathology, 2019
Escherichia coli strains that are able to colonize outside of the gastrointestinal tract are classified as extraintestinal pathogenic E. coli (ExpEC).

High frequency of hybrid Escherichia coli strains with combined Intestinal Pathogenic Escherichia coli (IPEC) and Extraintestinal Pathogenic Escherichia coli (ExPEC) virulence factors isolated from human faecal samples

BMC Infectious Diseases, 2018
Background Classification of pathogenic Escherichia coli (E. coli) has traditionally relied on detecting specific virulence associated genes (VAGs) or combinations thereof. For E.

The B subunits of cholera and Escherichia coli heat-labile toxins enhance the immune responses in mice orally immunised with a recombinant live P-fimbrial vaccine for avian pathogenic E. coli [PDF]

, 2014
This study aimed to investigate the adjuvant effect of recombinant attenuated Salmonella expressing cholera toxin B subunit (CTB) and Escherichia coli heat-labile enterotoxin B subunit (LTB) for the P-fimbriae subunit-based vaccine of avian pathogenic E.
