  • Title: In vivo transduction of an Stx-encoding phage in ruminants.
    Author: Cornick NA, Helgerson AF, Mai V, Ritchie JM, Acheson DW.
    Journal: Appl Environ Microbiol; 2006 Jul; 72(7):5086-8. PubMed ID: 16820511.
    Abstract:
    We assessed the ability of a kanamycin-marked Stx phage to move into a commensal, ovine Escherichia coli strain in the ruminant gastrointestinal tract. Transduction was detected in 19/24 sheep tested, resulting in the recovery of 47 transductants. Subtherapeutic doses of the quinolone antibiotic enrofloxacin did not increase the rate of transduction.
