Enhancing detection of STEC in the meat industry: insights into virulence of priority STEC
Detection of Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) presenting high risk of human infections is challenging. In France, the latest Anses opinion categorized STEC in four groups based on their association with severe forms of clinical infection. STEC strains carrying the eae gene, particularly those of serogroups O157, O26, O111, O103, O145, O121,

Genomic insights into within-farm persistence and global phylogenetic relatedness of Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli O26 in a dairy cattle farm in the UK [PDF]
BackgroundShiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) O26 is increasingly implicated in human hemolytic uremic syndrome globally. As cattle are an important reservoir, we conducted a year-long pilot study on a dairy farm in England (~200 cattle) to ...

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.
