Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli Infections
Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) is a subset of pathogenic E. coli that can cause diarrhea or hemorrhagic colitis in humans. Hemorrhagic colitis occasionally progresses to hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS), an important cause of acute renal failure in children and morbidity and mortality in adults. In the elderly, the case fatality rate for HUS can be as high as 50%. E. coli O157:H7 (EHE...

متن کاملEnterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC).
Enterohaemorrhagic Escherichia coli has since the last 2 decades been known to cause severe and bloody diarrhoea as well as haemorrhagic colitis (HC) and haemorrhagic uraemic syndrome (HUS) especially among children. The importance of screening for EHEC among children and older patients with severe symptoms is apparent. Production of the verocytotoxins VT1 and VT2 are the main features of EHEC,...

متن کامل[Evaluation of a new chromogenic medium for isolation of MRSA].
Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is responsible for an increasing number of serious nosocomial and community-acquired infections, and accurate methods to detect such strains are needed. We tested the susceptibility of 3 kinds of MRSA isolation medium, MRSA Screen Agar, Oxacillin Resistance Screening Agar and CHROMagar MRSA. Both sensitivity and specificity of CHROMagar MRSA we...
