Adherence Patterns of Verotoxigenic Escherichia coli (VTEC) Non-O157 Strains Isolated from Faecal Samples in Iran
The adherence property of 70 verotoxigenicE. coli (VTEC) strains, not belonging to O157: H7 serotype (non-O157) was checked on HeLa cells adherence assay. These strains were isolated from patients with diarrhea and healthy individuals. The results obtained in this study revealed that localised adherence (LA) was manifested by 3 strains of which two belonged to serogroups O111, O127 and the thir...
متن کاملSerotypes and antibiotic resistance of verotoxigenic (VTEC) and necrotizing (NTEC) Escherichia coli strains isolated from calves with diarrhoea.
Serotypes and antibiotic resistance of 51 Verotoxigenic (VTEC) and 33 Necrotizing (NTEC) bovine Escherichia coli strains were determined and compared with those shown by 205 non-VTEC non-NTEC strains isolated from the same batch of calves. E. coli untypable for O-antigen represented 47% of the VTEC, 12% of the NTEC and 8.8% of the non-VTEC non-NTEC. Typable VTEC belonged to serotypes 02:K?, 010...
متن کاملA descriptive study of verocytotoxigenic Escherichia coli (VTEC) cases reported in Ontario, 1990-1994.
Characteristics of VTEC cases identified through routine surveillance in Ontario between 1990 and 1994 are described. Information was extracted from the Reportable Disease Information System (RDIS) of Ontario and was evaluated for its completeness and internal validity. A total of 2,441 VTEC cases were identified for the five-year study period corresponding to an average annual rate of 4.8 case...

متن کاملAntibiotic treatment of verocytotoxin-producing Escherichia coli (VTEC) infection: a systematic review and a proposal.
OBJECTIVES A consensus has existed on not to treat verocytotoxin-producing Escherichia coli (VTEC)-infected individuals with antibiotics because of possible subsequent increased risk of developing haemolytic uraemic syndrome (HUS). The aim of this systematic review is to clarify the risk associated with antibiotic treatment during acute VTEC infection and in chronic VTEC carrier states. METHO...
