Virulence genes of O149 enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli from outbreaks of postweaning diarrhea in pigs.
TL;DR: It is concluded that the recent outbreaks of PWD in Ontario pigs were associated primarily with a new serotype of O149 ETEC and that isolates of this serotype possessed the estA gene that was not present in old O 149 ETEC isolated from pigs in Ontario.

TL;DR: Temperature stress response of microbes was observed by infrared spectroscopy in polysaccharide, protein, lipid, and nucleic acid regions and was strain specific and could be predicted using cluster, discriminant function and class analog analysis models.

Combined effect of gallic acid and catechin against Escherichia coli
TL;DR: In this paper, the antimicrobial effect of gallic acid and catechin on Escherichia coli cultures was investigated by measuring the absorbance of liquid culture media at 600nm, by an agar-well diffusion method and by scoring colony forming units.

TL;DR: The presence of O157:H7 and non-O157 STEC on beef carcasses in this slaughter plant in Guadalajara, Mexico, emphasizes the importance of implementing the Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point (HACCP) system, as well as the need for implementing, evaluating, and validating antimicrobial interventions to reduce the presence of potential pathogenic microorganisms.

Extended-Spectrum Beta-Lactamase-Producing Escherichia coli in Drinking Water Samples From a Forcibly Displaced, Densely Populated Community Setting in Bangladesh

TL;DR: It is suggested that the drinking water samples analyzed herein could serve as an important source for exposure and dissemination of MDR, ESBL-producing and pathogenic E. coli lineages, which therewith pose a health risk to the displaced Rohingya people residing in the densely populated camps of Bangladesh.

Infection by verocytotoxin-producing Escherichia coli.
TL;DR: The best strategies for diagnosing human VTEC infection including testing for the presence of free VT in fecal filtrates and examining fecal cultures for VTEC by means of deoxyribonucleic acid probes that specify genes encoding VT1 and VT2 are currently confined to specialized laboratories and await commercial development for wider use.

Escherichia coli that Cause Diarrhea: Enterotoxigenic, Enteropathogenic, Enteroinvasive, Enterohemorrhagic, and Enteroadherent
TL;DR: There are four major categories of diarrheagenic Escherichia coli: enterotoxigenic (a major cause of travelers' diarrhea and infant diarrhea in less-developed countries), enteroinvasive (a cause of dysentery), enteropathogenic (an important cause of infant diarrhea), and enterohemorrhagic ( a cause of hemorrhagic colitis and hemolytic uremic syndrome).

A genetic locus of enterocyte effacement conserved among diverse enterobacterial pathogens.
TL;DR: It is reported that in EPEC a 35-kbp locus containing several regions implicated in formation of these lesions is found, which hybridize to E. coli O157:H7 and other pathogens of three genera that cause similar lesions but do not hybridized to avirulent members of the same species.

Vero response to a cytotoxin of Escherichia coli.
TL;DR: A cytotoxin was found in culture filtrates of a number of Escherichia coli strains that differed from the known heat-stable and heat-labile enterotoxins of E. coli.
