Multiple evolutionary trajectories for non-O157 Shiga toxigenic Escherichia coli [PDF]

open access: gold, 2019
AbstractBackgroundShiga toxigenic Escherichia coli (STEC) is an emerging global pathogen and remains a major cause of food-borne illness with more severe symptoms including hemorrhagic colitis and hemolytic-uremic syndrome. Since the characterization of the archetypal STEC serotype, E. coli O157:H7, more than 250 STEC serotypes have been defined.

Genomic Profiling of Non-O157 Shiga Toxigenic Escherichia coli-Infecting Bacteriophages from South Africa. [PDF]

open access: yesPhage (New Rochelle), 2022
Non-O157 Shiga toxigenic Escherichia coli (STEC) are one of the most important food and waterborne pathogens worldwide. Although bacteriophages (phages) have been used for the biocontrol of these pathogens, a comprehensive understanding of the genetic characteristics and lifestyle of potentially effective candidate phages is lacking.In this study, 10 ...

Surveillance of Shiga toxigenic Escherichia coli in Australia

open access: hybridCommunicable Diseases Intelligence, 2005
All Australian States and Territories have low rates (= 0.32 cases per 100,000 population) of notification for Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC), except for South Australia where the rates are tenfold higher at 2.58 cases per 100,000 population.

Atypical Presentation of Shiga Toxin Haemolytic Uremic Syndrome (STEC-HUS) [PDF]

open access: yesRevista Portuguesa de Nefrologia e Hipertensão, 2022
Shiga-toxin producing Escherichia coli (STEC) infection is the most common cause of haemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS) in children. It should be noted that 5% of STEC-HUS patients have no prodromal diarrhoea, while it may be present in up to 30% of ...

Public Health Risk of Foodborne Pathogens in Edible African Land Snails, Cameroon

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2022
In tropical countries, land snails are an important food source; however, foodborne disease risks are poorly quantified. We detected Campylobacter spp., Yersinia spp., Listeria spp., Salmonella spp., or Shiga-toxigenic Escherichia coli in 57%–86% of ...
