Tellurite Resistance in Shiga Toxin-Producing Escherichia coli
Potassium tellurite (K2TeO3) is an effective selective agent for O157:H7 Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC), whereas tellurite resistance in non-O157 STEC is variable with information on O45 minimal. High-level K2TeO3 resistance in STEC is attributable to the ter gene cluster with terD an indicator of the cluster's presence. Polymerase chain

Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli infection in South India [PDF]
Infection with Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) is a recognized cause of diarrhoeal illness, and can be followed by life-threatening complications such as haemorrhagic colitis and/or haemolytic uraemic syndrome (HUS) (Tozzi et al., 2003). The key virulence factors associated with complications are Shiga toxins, Stx1 and Stx2, with variants

Shiga Toxin–Producing Escherichia coli (STEC)
Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) are important enteric pathogens worldwide, causing diarrhea with or without blood visibly present and hemolytic uremic syndrome. STEC are unique among diarrheogenic E coli in producing Shiga toxin type 1 and type 2, the virulence factors responsible for bloody diarrhea and hemolytic uremic syndrome.

Shiga Toxin-Producing Escherichia coli Infections in Germany
A prospective study was carried out in collaboration with two children's hospitals in Würzburg, Germany to assess the incidence and clinical manifestations of infections due to Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) in children. Between 1991 and 1995, stool samples from 2788 children with enteritis were investigated for the occurrence of STEC ...

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

Gene‐specific double‐stranded RNAs effectively silence essential genes in the invasive citrus pest Delottococcus aberiae, leading to significant mortality through both microinjection and oral delivery. These results provide proof of concept for RNA interference‐based biopesticides as selective and sustainable tools for citrus integrated pest management.
