Genetically similar strains of Escherichia coli O157:H7 isolated from sheep, cattle and human patients

Söderlund, Robert; Hedenström, I; Nilsson, Anna; Eriksson, Erik; Aspán, Anna

Sammanfattning

Conclusions: The same pathogenic subtypes of VTEC O157:H7, including the highly virulent clade 8, appear to be present in both sheep and cattle in Sweden, suggesting strains can circulate freely between ruminant reservoirs.
