Abstract:

E. coli is recognised as a major pathogen of public health significance in developing countries and represents the leading etiological agent of diarrhoea. The presence of E. coli in food or water is an indication of uncleanliness and careless handling and also implies the presence of enteric pathogens. The Shiga Toxin-Producing Escherichia coli (STEC) are public health food pathogens. STEC is responsible for human diseases ranging from mild diarrhoea to hemorrhagic colitis (HC) and life-threatening hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS), leading to kidney failure and death, both in outbreaks and intermittent events.
