Escherichia coli and Sudden Infant Death Syndrome
This review examines the association of strains of Escherichia coli with sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) and the possible role these bacteria play in this enigmatic condition. The review addresses evidence for E. coli in SIDS infants, potential sources of E. coli in the environment, colonization by commensal and pathogenic strains, the variety of currently accepted pathotypes, and how these...
متن کاملThymineless death in Escherichia coli.
There is little doubt that thymine starvation af fects the DNA of thymine requiring bacteria1-5. However, the process of killing is fairly complicated and remains to be clarified. The genes responsible for the control of sensitivity to thymine starvation have not been identified, even though claims have been but forward for at least one gene6. Besides, whether the cells die when still in incub...
متن کاملExperimental Induction of Escherichia coli Diarrhoea in Weaned Piglets
Escherichia coli diarrhoea is a multifactorial condition which usually occurs during the post-weaning and is responsible for economic losses in pig production. One approach, to evaluate if substitute of antibiotic in vivo is effective in controlling postweaning diarrhea in the gastrointestinal tract ecosystem, is to use an appropriate disease model. However, there are still many criticisms rela...
متن کاملVirulence plasmids of enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli isolates from piglets.
Virulence plasmids of 68 ETEC isolates from piglets belonging to different pathotypes and six ETEC isolates from calves with pathotypes typical of porcine ETEC were identified with seven virulence probes for the heat-stable (STa and STb) and heat-labile (LT) enterotoxins, for the F4, F5, F6, and F41 fimbrial adhesion subunit, and also with five Rep probes for the RepFIA and RepFIB basic replico...
متن کاملSudden death in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy with normal left ventricular mass.
An active, healthy, and symptom free 16 year old boy with a family history of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy died suddenly while walking home from school. Necropsy showed absence of left ventricular hypertrophy (that is, normal heart weight), though the characteristic histological abnormalities of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, such as cardiac muscle cell disorganisation and abnormal intramural coro...
