Occurrence of Escherichia coli O157 in raw material and food in Czech Republic

Original language description

The study was carried out to investigate the incidence of Escherichia coli O157 in raw materials, foodstufs and the agricultural environment. Of a total of 987 samples examind, 22 strains (2.2%) were identified as E. coli O157 and 10 of them as E. coli O157:H7. The virulence factors (stx1, stx2, eae and ehxA genes) were identified by polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Sensitivity to the antimicrobial drugs was tested using the standard dilution technique and disc diffusion test. Resistance against one ormore antibiotics was found in 95.4% of E. coli O157. Only one strain was sensitive to all tested antibiotics.
