Characterizing RecA-Independent Induction of Shiga toxin2-encoding Phages by EDTA Treatment [PDF]

, 2013
The bacteriophage life cycle has an important role in Shiga toxin (Stx) expression. The induction of Shiga toxin-encoding phages (Stx phages) increases toxin production as a result of replication of the phage genome, and phage lysis of the host cell also

Detection and Modeling of Co‐Seismic Ionospheric Disturbances Induced by the 2024 Mw 6.6 Deep‐Focus Earthquake in Brazil

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract On 20 January 2024, a deep‐focus earthquake (Mw 6.6, depth 607 km) struck near Tarauacá, Brazil, within the subducted South America Nazca Plate. Although it produced no surface damage, the event generated clear co‐seismic ionospheric disturbances (CSIDs) detectable in GNSS‐based Total Electron Content (TEC) data from the Brazilian RBMC network.

Cutaneous and renal glomerular vasculopathy as a cause of acute kidney injury in dogs in the UK [PDF]

, 2015
To describe the signalment, clinicopathological findings and outcome in dogs presenting with acute kidney injury (AKI) and skin lesions between November 2012 and March 2014, in whom cutaneous and renal glomerular vasculopathy (CRGV) was suspected and ...

Gaining insights into MmpL3: combining structural and computational approaches to unlock transport and inhibitor‐binding mechanisms

Acta Crystallographica Section D, Volume 82, Issue 5, Page 550-570, May 2026.
This study investigates the mycobacterial membrane protein MmpL3, a key target for new antituberculosis drugs, by combining high‐resolution crystallography and computational simulations. It reveals how the inhibitor UPAR‐1109 binds to MmpL3, providing detailed insights into the function and flexibility of the protein and supporting the rational design ...

Revisiting the STEC Testing Approach: Using espK and espV to Make Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) Detection More Reliable in Beef [PDF]

, 2016
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.

Real-Time PCR assay for detection and differentiation of Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli from clinical samples [PDF]

, 2015
Timely accurate diagnosis of Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) infections is important. We evaluated a laboratory-developed real-time PCR (LD-PCR) assay targeting stx(1), stx(2), and rfbE(O157) with 2,386 qualifying stool samples submitted to

A challenging STEC strain isolation from patients’ stools: an O166:H15 STEC strain with the stx2 gene

Microbiology Spectrum
ABSTRACT Two patients with acute gastroenteritis tested positive for Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) by polymerase chain reaction (PCR), and both strains carried the Shiga toxin 2 encoding gene. Since routine culture using CHROMagar STEC failed to recover these

Ruthenium Nanoparticle‐On‐Cavity Refractory Thermoplasmonics for Broadband and Spectral‐Selective Solar Photothermal Conversion

Advanced Photonics Research, Volume 7, Issue 4, April 2026.
We identify ruthenium as a refractory plasmonic material exhibiting dual ENZ optical topological transitions and dual plasmonic resonances spanning from visible to infrared region with high imaginary permittivity. We establish a nanoparticle‐on‐cavity (NPoC) resonance mode and realize a NPoC selective solar absorber using cost‐effective additive ...

Diversity and Molecular Characterization of Shiga Toxin-producing Escherichia coli Isolated from Ground Beef at Point of Sale in Hidalgo, Mexico

Journal of Pure and Applied Microbiology
Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) is the causative agent of several epidemic outbreaks worldwide. STEC infections range from mild diarrhea to fatal outcomes, transmission occurs mainly through the ingestion of contaminated and undercooked ...

Identification of Novel Biomarkers for Priority Serotypes of Shiga Toxin-Producing Escherichia coli and the Development of Multiplex PCR for Their Detection

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2018
It would be desirable to have an unambiguous scheme for the typing of Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) isolates to subpopulations. Such a scheme should take the high genomic plasticity of E.
