چکیده

the aim of this study was to determine the occurrence of enterotoxigenic and enteroaggregative escherichia coli strains and antibiotic resistance of the isolates in raw milk and unpasteurized cheese. out of 200 samples of raw milk and 50 samples of unpasteurized cheeses, 96 and 24 strains of e. coli were isolated, respectively. polymerase chain reaction (pcr) was used to detect the genes encoding heat-stable enterotoxin a (sta), heat-stable enterotoxin b (stb), heat labile toxin (lt) and enteroaggregative heat-stable toxin1 (east1). twelve out of 120 (10.00%) isolates harbored the gene for east1, 2(1.66%) isolates were detected as producing stb and lt  toxins and 12 (10.00%) strains contained stb and east1 genes.  none of the strains contain the sta gene. all of the strains were tested for antibiotic resistance by disk diffusion method. disks included: ciprofloxacin (cfn), trimetoprim-sulfamethoxazole (tsx), oxytetracycline (otc), gentamicin (gmn), cephalexin (cpn), nalidixic acid (nda) and nitrofurantoin (nfn), ampicillin (amp), neomycin (neo) and streptomycin (stm).  among 120 isolated strains of e. coli, the resistance to each antibiotics were as follows: otc100%, cpn 86.00%, nda 56.00%, nfn 42.00%, gmn 30.00%, tsx 28.00%, cfn 20%, am 23.40% and stm 4.25%. none of the isolates were resistant to neo. the present data indicate that different resistant e. coli pathogens may be found in raw milk and unpasteurized cheese. it poses an infection risk for human and transferring the resistant factors to microflora of the consumers gut.

Molecular characterization of enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli isolated from neonatal calves diarrhea

Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) produces different virulence factors allowing the bacterium to colonize and develop watery diarrhea. Proteomics studies have also introduced new protein belonging to the secretion pathways, antigen 43 (Ag43), which plays important role in E. coli pathogenesis. The objective of this study was to investigate O-types and virulence factors o...

Molecular Characterization and Antimicrobial Resistance of Uropathogenic Escherichia coli

Background:Urinary Tract Infections (UTIs) are the most common infectious diseases in childhood. The Uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) strains account for as much as 80% of UTIs. Objective:From a clinical perspective, it is important to know which virulence factors and antibiotic resistance properties are present in UPEC strains in pediatrics. Therefore, this study was carried out...

Antibiotic susceptibility assessment of Escherichia coli isolated from traditional cheeses in Marand, Iran

Background and Aim: Dairy products, especially cheese, are a suitable environment for the growth of pathogenic bacteria that cause disease after being transmitted to humans. Escherichia coli is one of the microbial agents in traditional cheese that causes human disease. The aim of this study was to evaluate the contamination rate of traditional cheeses with E.coli and to determine their antibio...
