Bovine immune response to shiga-toxigenic Escherichia coli O157:H7.
Although cattle develop humoral immune responses to Shiga-toxigenic (Stx+) Escherichia coli O157:H7, infections often result in long-term shedding of these human pathogenic bacteria. The objective of this study was to compare humoral and cellular immune responses to Stx+ and Stx- E. coli O157:H7. Three groups of calves were inoculated intrarumenally, twice in a 3-week interval, with different s...
متن کاملShiga Toxigenic Escherichia coli
The Shiga toxigenic Escherichia coli (STEC) O113:H21 strain 98NK2, which was responsible for an outbreak of hemolytic uremic syndrome, secretes a highly potent and lethal subtilase cytotoxin that is unrelated to any bacterial toxin described to date. It is the prototype of a new family of AB 5 toxins, comprising a single 35-kilodalton (kD) A subunit and a pentamer of 13-kD B subunits. The A sub...

متن کاملShiga-toxigenic Escherichia coli O157 and non-Shiga-toxigenic E. coli O157 respond differently to culture and isolation from naturally contaminated bovine faeces.
AIM To quantify the effect of enrichment, immunomagnetic separation (IMS), and selective plating procedures on isolation of Shiga-toxigenic Escherichia coli O157 (STEC O157) and non-Shiga-toxigenic Escherichia coli O157 (non-STEC O157) from naturally contaminated bovine faeces. METHODS AND RESULTS Two broth enrichment times, two IMS strategies, and two selective plating media were evaluated. ...
متن کاملSurveillance of Shiga toxigenic Escherichia coli in Australia.
All Australian States and Territories have low rates (< or = 0.32 cases per 100,000 population) of notification for Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC), except for South Australia where the rates are ten-fold higher at 2.58 cases per 100,000 population. To explore possible reasons for the variation in rates we surveyed public health reference laboratories to determine the methods used...
