Diarrheagenic Escherichia coli and Their Antibiotic Resistance Patterns in Dairy Farms and Their Microbial Ecosystems
2023, Journal of Food ProtectionThe prevalence and characteristics of Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli isolated by the enteric pathogens active surveillance network (Enter-Net) in the Republic of Korea, 2009–2018
2021, Microbial PathogenesisCitation Excerpt :Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) is a pathogenic agent that causes abdominal pain, diarrhea, and hemorrhagic colitis (HC) [1]. These diseases are caused by improper cooking of animal meat, vegetables, and sprouts, and person-to-person transmission can also occur [2–4]. Most patients with STEC infection recover within 10 days, but up to 10% of the patients can develop hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS), with a fatality rate ranging from 3% to 5% [5].

2016, ToxiconCitation Excerpt :Other sources linked to sporadic infection and outbreaks of illness in humans include lettuce, alfalfa sprouts, radish sprouts, spinach, fenugreek sprouts, and apple cider, as well as consumption or recreational use of water, direct contact with cattle or animal excreta, attendance at agricultural fairs, and recreational use of pastures (King et al., 2012; Rangel et al., 2005). Secondary person-to-person transmission, such as within families, day care centers, and healthcare institutions, has also been reported (Carter et al., 1987; Rangel et al., 2005; Rowe et al., 1993; Spika et al., 1986). A remarkable feature of STEC is its low infectious dose; approximately 50–100 bacteria are sufficient to cause disease in healthy individuals (Tilden et al., 1996).
Genotypic characterization of Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli O157:H7 isolates in food products from china between 2005 and 2010
2015, Food ControlCitation Excerpt :The verotoxin titer was expressed as the reciprocal of the highest sample dilution of culture filtrate which caused 50% cell detachment after 48 h of incubation, as judged by the dye intensity and by microscopic observation. E. coli K-12 C600 was used as a negative control (Pradel et al., 2000; Spika et al.,1986). Antimicrobial susceptibility of all STEC O157 isolates was determined by agar dilution method and interpreted according to the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute guidelines (CLSI, 2012).
