novobiocin/hemorrhage

The ability of enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli O157:H7 to grow and survive during the manufacture of Cottage cheese was determined. Pasteurized skim milk artificially contaminated with E. coli O157:H7 was used to make Cottage cheese by the washed curd method. E. coli O157:H7 was enumerated by

A newly revised enrichment and agar-plating system was tested for selectivity and sensitivity in recovery of unstressed and cold-stressed Escherichia coli O157:H7 from foods. Various foods inoculated with known levels of enterohemorrhagic E. coli O157:H7 (EHEC) were tested by enrichment for 6 h at

Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) are responsible for human infections, ranging from mild watery diarrhea to hemorrhagic colitis (CH) that may be complicated by hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS). The main STEC virulence factor is Shiga toxin encoded by the stx gene, located in the genome

Aeromonas hydrophila was recovered from fish living in lake Vrana on the Croatian island of Cres. The occurrence of the bacterium in the fish was assessed and related to gross signs of disease and findings at necropsy as a potential health hazard for fish. Isolated bacteria were subjected to

Chlorate kills E. coli O157:H7 and has been proposed as a feed additive to be included in cattle rations immediately prior to slaughter to reduce E. coli O157: H7 populations in the gut. Antibiotic usage is not recommended in cases of E. coil O157:H7-induced hemorrhagic colitis because some

OBJECTIVE The main objective of this study was to emphasize on histopathological examinations and molecular identification of Streptococcus agalactiae isolated from natural infections in hybrid tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) in Temerloh Pahang, Malaysia, as well as to determine the susceptibility

The Difco EZ Coli Rapid Detection System was compared to the 3M Petrifilm method for detection of Escherichia coli O157:H7 in raw ground beef. Raw meatballs (25 g) were inoculated with 10 to 15 cells of Escherichia coli O157:H7, stored for various times and at different temperatures, and then

Escherichia coli O157:H7 is an emergent pathogen associated with food transmitted diseases. In 1982, Escherichia coli O157:H7 was for the first time identified as the cause of two hemorrhagic colitis outbreaks in the United States. It is now well known that most cases of hemolytic uremic syndrome

Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) strains belonging to serogroup O145 are an important cause of hemorrhagic colitis and hemolytic uremic syndrome worldwide. Cattle and other animals are potential reservoirs for this pathogen. To develop PCR assays for detection and identification of E.

The ability of enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli O157:H7 to survive a standard Cheddar cheese manufacturing process and subsequent curing was determined. Two treatments with added E. coli O157:H7 were designed with target levels 1 × 10³ CFU/ml and 1 CFU/ml of cheese milk. Cheese samples

Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) are an important cause of haemorrhagic colitis and the diarrhoea-associated form of the haemolytic uraemic syndrome. Of the numerous serotypes of E. coli that have been shown to produce Shiga toxin (Stx), E. coli O157:H7 and E. coli O157:NM (non-motile)
