Detection of Shiga Toxins by Lateral Flow Assay [PDF]
Toxins, 2015 Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) produce shiga toxins (Stxs) that can cause human disease and death. The contamination of food products with STEC represents a food safety problem that necessitates rapid and effective detection strategies to ...

The pathogenic mechanisms of Shiga toxin and the Shiga‐like toxins [PDF]
Molecular Microbiology, 1991 SummaryIt is now well documented that some enteric bacteria which cause diarrhoeal and/or dysenteric disease produce, at high levels, one or more of a family of protein toxins referred to as Shiga toxin and Shiga‐like toxins (SLTs; alternatively called verocytotoxins or VTs).

Shiga toxins and apoptosis [PDF]
FEMS Microbiology Letters, 2003 The enteric pathogens Shigella dysenteriae serotype 1 and Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) cause bloody diarrheal diseases that may progress to life-threatening extraintestinal complications. Although the S. dysenteriae and STEC differ in the expression of a number of virulence determinants, they share the capacity to produce one or more ...

Shiga Toxin-Producing Escherichia coli: Detection, Differentiation, and Implications for Food Safety
EDIS, 2016 Shiga toxin is a protein found within the genome of a type of virus called a bacteriophage. These bacteriophages can integrate into the genomes of the bacterium E. Coli. Even though most E. coli are benign or even beneficial members of our gut microbial

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2021 Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) is a global foodborne bacterial pathogen that is often accountable for colon disorder or distress. STEC commonly induces severe diarrhea in hosts but can cause critical illnesses due to the Shiga toxin ...
