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 ...

shiga toxin-producing escherichia coli (stec) are food-borne pathogens primarily associated with the consumption of contaminated ground beef and are an important food safety concern worldwide. stec has been found to produce a family of related cytotoxins known as shiga toxins (stxs). shiga toxins have been classified into two major classes, stx1 and stx2. a single strains of stec can produce st...

BACKGROUND:The bacterial contamination of fertile eggs isthe most common cause of embryonic death in ostrich hatcheryunits leading to financial loss in ostrich industry. OBJECTIVES:The aim of this research was to investigate the bacterialcontamination status, with emphasis on Escherichia coli, ofostrich hatcheries and the antimicrobial resistance profile ofisolated Escherichia coli. METHODS:Ato...
