Fax: +81-43-238-1901, E-mail: ccidsc@sea. plala.or.jp There was an outbreak of enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) on the same day (28 August 2005) in two facilities, a prison and a juvenile classification office (JCO), in Chiba City near Tokyo. The mea...
متن کاملMolecular characterization of enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli isolated from neonatal calves diarrhea
Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) produces different virulence factors allowing the bacterium to colonize and develop watery diarrhea. Proteomics studies have also introduced new protein belonging to the secretion pathways, antigen 43 (Ag43), which plays important role in E. coli pathogenesis. The objective of this study was to investigate O-types and virulence factors o...
متن کاملMolecular characterization and antibiotic resistance of enterotoxigenic and entero-aggregative Escherichia coli isolated from raw milk and unpasteurized cheeses
The aim of this study was to determine the occurrence of enterotoxigenic and enteroaggregative Escherichia coli strains and antibiotic resistance of the isolates in raw milk and unpasteurized cheese. Out of 200 samples of raw milk and 50 samples of unpasteurized cheeses, 96 and 24 strains of E. coli were isolated, respectively. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was used to detec...
متن کاملIdentification of Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli
Alkaline phosphatase-conjugated (AP) 26-base oligonucleotide DNA probes were compared with the same probes labeled with y_32p for the identification of heat-labile (LT) and heat-stable (ST) enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC). The AP oligonucleotide probes were as sensitive as the radiolabeled (RL) probes in detecting LT and STA-2 target cell DNA, but the AP ST probe, which differed from ST...
متن کاملmolecular characterization of virulence factors in enterotoxigenic escherichia coli
millions of diarrheal disease is made by enterotoxigenic e. coli (etec) each year, specifically in developing countries. in the pathogenesis of etec infections, the first phase is sticking of the bacterium to the minute intestinal epithelium, as a result of colonization factors (cfs) mediation and subsequently generate enterotoxins. these cfs in accordance with their structure are diverged into...
