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

Engineered Probiotics: The Next‐Generation Therapeutics to Combat Antibiotic‐Resistant Bacterial Infections

Food Frontiers, EarlyView.
Engineered probiotics secretes fusion proteins which potentially neutralized the toxins secreted by other microbial communities. ABSTRACT On a global scale, the escalating burden of infectious diseases, predominantly attributed to bacterial pathogens, especially drug‐resistant strains, has progressed into a critical concern for clinical management and ...

Enhancing detection of STEC in the meat industry: insights into virulence of priority STEC

Frontiers in Microbiology
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,

Improved flux limits for neutrinos with energies above 10$^{22}$ eV from observations with the Westerbork Synthesis Radio Telescope [PDF]

, 2009
Particle cascades initiated by ultra-high energy (UHE) neutrinos in the lunar regolith will emit an electromagnetic pulse with a time duration of the order of nano seconds through a process known as the Askaryan effect.

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.

The return of metabolism: biochemistry and physiology of glycolysis

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Glycolysis is a fundamental metabolic pathway central to the bioenergetics and physiology of virtually all living organisms. In this comprehensive review, we explore the intricate biochemical principles and evolutionary origins of glycolytic pathways, from the classical Embden–Meyerhof–Parnas (EMP) pathway in humans to various prokaryotic and ...

Characterisation of STEC and other diarrheic E. coli isolated on CHROMagar™STEC at a tertiary referral hospital, Cape Town

BMC Microbiology, 2018
Shiga toxin producing E. coli (STEC) is an emerging zoonotic pathogen that can cause acute renal failure, especially in children. Clinical microbiology laboratories may fail to detect STEC and other diarrhoeic E.

Transitions between homes in parenting plans: A Canadian perspective on legal considerations

Family Court Review, EarlyView.
Abstract Children and adolescents can experience a wide range of emotions when transitioning between their parents' homes after separation and divorce, including anticipation, distress, and fear. Even when they enjoy spending time at each parent's residence, changeovers can expose them to interparental conflict and loyalty conflicts.
