Prevalence, Molecular Characterization and Serology of Shiga toxin-Producing Escherichia coli Isolated from Buffaloes in West Azerbaijan, Iran
This present study is the first to report the presence of Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) in buffaloes in Iran. A total of 360 fecal samples were collected from buffaloes from different regions in the west Azerbaijan province of Iran and cultured for the isolation of E. coli using routine biochemical tests. From the fecal samples, 340 E. coli were isolated and, of these, 26 STEC i...
متن کاملPrevalence and molecular characterization of verotoxin-producing Escherichia coli O157:H7 in cattle and sheep in Shiraz-Iran
Shiga toxin producing Escherichia coli have been associated with HUS, HC and TTP in human. We found recto-anal mucosal sample in sheep as well in cattle is the main site for E. coli O157 localization. 1246 E. coli isolates from 872 both healthy and diarrheic animals were analyzed, by screening for the presence of Shiga toxin-producing (VT 1 and VT 2) and intimin (eae) genes used Multiplex PCR. ...
متن کاملPrevalence, Antimicrobial Resistance, and Molecular Characterization of Escherichia coli Isolated from Food Contact Surfaces in Seafood Pre-Processing Plants (India)
Background: The survival of pathogens in biofilms poses a threat to food safety. The aim of this study was to determine prevalence, antimicrobial resistance, and molecular characterization of Escherichia coli strains. Methods: Swab samples (n=144) were collected from biofilm formed on food contact surfaces in seafood pre-processing plant in India. E. coli was isolated and identified using uid ...
متن کاملAn outbreak of water-borne gastroenteritis caused by diarrheagenic Escherichia coli possessing eae gene.
From July 19 to July 23, 2005, an outbreak of gastroenteritis occurred among the students and teaching staff at a high school in Fukuoka City, Japan. A total of 409 persons, including 393 students and 16 staff members, went camping at a town in Oita Prefecture, from July 18 to 20. Among them, 174 students and 2 staff members showed symptoms such as watery diarrhea, abdominal pain, vomiting and ...
متن کاملIsolation and identification of Escherichia albertii from a patient in an outbreak of gastroenteritis.
A microbial strain harboring the eae gene, which is known as the virulence gene of enteropathogenic Escherichia coli (EPEC) and most enterohemorrhagic E. coli, was isolated from a patient in a gastroenteritis outbreak that occurred in 22 patients in Akita Prefecture, Japan, in November 2011. The biochemical characteristics of the isolate were more similar to those of a novel Escherichia sp....
