background and objectives: a diverse group of escherichia coli are known as enterohemorrhagic escherichia coli (ehec) including o157:h7 and non-o157 ehec. enterohemorrhagic strains are related to severe clinical conditions in humans including hemorrhagic colitis and hemolytic uremic syndrome, and most of the recorded outbreaks occurred due to o157: h7 e. coli . the aim of the present study was ...

in this study 130 bulk tank milk samples which were delivered to the pegah pasturisation factory inmashhad were collected randomly during the summer months. samples were firstly enriched in modifiedtrypticase soy broth containing novobiocin, followed by plating onto sorbitol macconkey agar supplementedwith cefixime and potassium tellurite for isolation of escherichia coli o157:h7. consequently ...

this study was carried out to determine the prevalence of foodborne pathogens, escherichia coli, e. coli o157:h7, listeria monocytogenes and campylobacter spp. on slaughtered cattle in isfahan, iran. a total of 203 cattle carcasses were sampled by surface section of neck meat taken immediately after slaughter and analyzed using microbiological examinations. suspected colonies to e. coli o157:h7...

results the results showed that the chimeric recombinant protein induced strong humoral response as well as protection against live oral challenges using e. coli o157:h7. conclusions the rit could reduce bacterial shedding effectively. objectives the eae gene encoded intimin protein which is essential for colonization of the mucosa and a/e lesions formation by docking to the tir. materials and ...

The level of acid resistance among Escherichia coli O157:H7 strains varies, and strains with higher resistance to acid may have a lower infectious dose. The complete genome sequences belonging to two strains of Escherichia coli O157:H7 with different levels of acid resistance are presented here.

background and objectives: the most common serotype of enterohaemorrhagic esherichia coli group or shiga-toxin-producing e. coli is o157:h7. domestic and wild ruminants are regarded as the main natural reservoirs. o157:h7 serotype is the major cause of gastrointestinal infections in developed countries. in this study was conducted to survey on the toxigenic e. coli o157: h7 strains in milk of i...

enterohemorrhagic escherichia coli (ehec) of the o157:h7 serotype is a worldwide zoonotic pathogen responsible for the majority of severe cases of human ehec disease. the aim of the present study was to investigate the prevalence of e. coli o157: h7/nm in raw meat samples from two provinces of iran. during a period from march 2010 to march 2011. two hundred and ninety five raw meat samples were...
