Title: International comparison of clinical, bovine, and environmental Escherichia coli O157 isolates on the basis of Shiga toxin-encoding bacteriophage insertion site genotypes. Author: Whitworth JH, Fegan N, Keller J, Gobius KS, Bono JL, Call DR, Hancock DD, Besser TE. Journal: Appl Environ Microbiol; 2008 Dec; 74(23):7447-50. PubMed ID: 18849446. Abstract: Escherichia coli O157:H7 genotypes in the bovine reservoir may differ in virulence. The proportion of clinical genotypes among cattle isolates was weakly (P = 0.054) related to the international incidence of E. coli O157:H7-associated hemolytic-uremic syndrome, varied among clinical isolates internationally, and also differed along the putative cattle-hamburger-clinical case transmission chain.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
