  • Title: Simultaneous detection of Escherichia coli heat-stable and heat-labile enterotoxin genes with a single RNA probe.
    Author: Sáez-Llorens X, Guzman-Verduzco LM, Shelton S, Nelson JD, Kupersztoch YM.
    Journal: J Clin Microbiol; 1989 Jul; 27(7):1684-8. PubMed ID: 2671025.
    Abstract:
    A single RNA probe was synthesized and used to detect simultaneously the methanol-soluble heat-stable enterotoxin and heat-labile enterotoxin genes in Escherichia coli strains. The results with the biotinylated or radioactive probe correlated 100% with the biological assay results for both toxins. The RNA probe detected the three known heat-stable enterotoxin A alleles.
