Public Health Microbiology of Shiga Toxin-Producing Escherichia coli
ABSTRACTShiga toxin-producingEscherichia coli(STEC) strains are the only pathogenic group ofE. colithat has a definite zoonotic origin, with ruminants and, in particular, cattle being recognized as the major reservoir. Most human STEC infections are food borne, but the routes of transmission include direct contact with animals and a variety of ...

New Therapeutic Developments against Shiga Toxin-Producing Escherichia coli
ABSTRACT Shiga toxin (Stx)-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) is an etiologic agent of bloody diarrhea. A serious sequela of disease, the hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS) may arise in up to 25% of patients. The development of HUS after STEC infection is linked to the presence of Stx. STEC strains may produce
