Molecular Characterization of Enteropathogenic E. Coli (epec) and Shiga-toxin Producing E. Coli (stec) From Domestic Animals: Prevalence, Virulence, Colonization Factors and Their Antimicrobial Resistance

Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: Enteropathogenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) and Shiga toxin-producing E. coli (SPEC) are frequently found in the feces of food animals and pose greater threats to the health of human beings and livestock [1].Although healthy sheep, cattle, and pigs appear to be important EPEC reservoirs, they have also been linked to diarrhea in several different animal species, including dogs, pigs, rabbits, and cattle [2].STEC strains may also have additional virulence genes for intimin and enterohaemolysin in addition to carrying
