Shiga Toxin-Producing Escherichia coli Infections during Pregnancy [PDF]
Microorganisms, 2018 Gastrointestinal infection with Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) causes diarrhea, hemorrhagic colitis, and hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS), characterized by hemolytic anemia, thrombocytopenia and acute renal failure. The main virulence factor of STEC is Shiga toxin (Stx), which is responsible for HUS development.

Shiga Toxin-Producing Escherichia coli and Milk Fat Globules [PDF]
Microorganisms, 2022 Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) are zoonotic Gram-negative bacteria. While raw milk cheese consumption is healthful, contamination with pathogens such as STEC can occur due to poor hygiene practices at the farm level. STEC infections cause mild to serious symptoms in humans.

Non-O157 Shiga Toxin–producing Escherichia coli Associated with Venison
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2012 We investigated an outbreak of non-O157 Shiga toxin–producing Escherichia coli at a high school in Minnesota, USA, in November 2010. Consuming undercooked venison and not washing hands after handling raw venison were associated with illness. E. coli O103:
