Metabolic characteristics and genomic epidemiology of Escherichia coli serogroup O145 : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Microbiology at Massey University, Palmerston North, New Zealand [PDF]

, 2018
Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) are a global public health concern, and can cause severe human disease. Ruminants are asymptomatic reservoirs of STEC, shedding this pathogen via their faeces.

Pathogenicity assessment of Shiga toxin‐producing Escherichia coli (STEC) and the public health risk posed by contamination of food with STEC [PDF]

EFSA Journal, 2020
The provisional molecular approach, proposed by EFSA in 2013, for the pathogenicity assessment of Shiga toxin‐producing Escherichia coli (STEC) has been reviewed. Analysis of the confirmed reported human STEC infections in the EU/EEA (2012–2017) demonstrated that isolates positive for any of the reported Shiga toxin (Stx) subtypes (and encoding stx ...

Nanjing Consensus II on Washed Microbiota Transplantation: Statements From the CHINAGUT Conference

Microbiota Medicine Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The new method of fecal microbiota transplantation, based on automatic facilities and washing processes, was coined as washed microbiota transplantation (WMT). The first recommendations on WMT were released as Nanjing Consensus report by the fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT)‐standardization Study Group in 2019.

Sensitivity of lunar particle-detection experiments [PDF]

, 2016
The use of the Moon as a detector volume for ultra-high-energy neutrinos and cosmic rays, by searching for the Askaryan radio pulse produced when they interact in the lunar regolith, has been attempted by a range of projects over the past two decades. In

Management of STEC Gastroenteritis: Is There a Role for Probiotics? [PDF]

International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health, 2019
Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia Coli (STEC) infections routinely run as a common gastroenteritis, but in many cases they may evolve towards hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS). HUS is a rare disease characterized by microangiopathic hemolytic anemia, thrombocytopenia, and acute renal failure.

The influence of wildlife images on conservation intentions: Investigating the mediating role of emotion

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Human actions can not only contribute to species extinction but also offer a path towards preventing it. Therefore, it is essential for conservation communicators to identify optimal communication methods to encourage positive pro‐conservation behaviours.

Exploring Long-Read Metagenomics for Full Characterization of Shiga Toxin-Producing Escherichia coli in Presence of Commensal E. coli

Microorganisms, 2023
The characterization of Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) is necessary to assess their pathogenic potential, but isolation of the strain from complex matrices such as milk remains challenging.

Assessing National Sustainability Transitions in Europe: A Dynamic MCDA and Clustering‐Based Approach

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The study evaluates the sustainable development of 42 European countries using a multi‐criteria decision analysis (MCDA) approach, based on 29 indicators covering the economic, social, and environmental pillars. All three pillars are assessed both individually and in consolidated form to provide a comprehensive view of countries ...

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.

PLoS ONE, 2018
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.

In vivo screening platform for shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) using Caenorhabditis elegans as a model. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2018
Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) strains are the main cause of bacillary dysentery, although STEC strains generally induce milder disease symptoms compared to Shigella species.
