The Role of Escherichia coli Shiga Toxins in STEC Colonization of Cattle [PDF]
Many cattle are persistently colonized with Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) and represent a major source of human infections with human-pathogenic STEC strains (syn. enterohemorrhagic E. coli (EHEC)).

Revisiting the STEC Testing Approach: Using espK and espV to Make Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) Detection More Reliable in Beef [PDF]
Current methods for screening Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) O157 and non-O157 in beef enrichments typically rely on the molecular detection of stx, eae, and serogroup-specific wzx or wzy gene fragments.

Shiga Toxin–Producing Escherichia coli (STEC) and STEC-Associated Virulence Genes in Raw Ground Pork in Canada [PDF]
Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) O157:H7/nonmotile and some non-O157 STEC strains are foodborne pathogens. In response to pork-associated O157 STEC outbreaks in Canada, we investigated the occurrence of STEC in Canadian retail raw ground pork during the period of 1 November 2014 to 31 March 2016. Isolated STEC strains were characterized to

Investigation of prevalence of free Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC)-specific bacteriophages and its correlation with STEC bacterial hosts in a produce-growing area in Salinas, California. [PDF]
Shiga toxin-producing E. coli (STEC) causes approximately 265,000 illnesses and 3,600 hospitalizations annually and is highly associated with animal contamination due to the natural reservoir of ruminant gastrointestinal tracts.

Neutralizing antibodies in the intestinal mucosa are essential to control gastrointestinal infection by Shiga toxin‐producing Escherichia coli [PDF]
Infections with Shiga toxin (Stx)‐producing Escherichia coli (STEC) strains can result in a wide range of clinical presentations. Despite STEC O157:H7 being the serotype most frequently associated with hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS), in some patients, a
