Abstract excerpt
Shiga toxin (Stx)-producing Escherichia coli O157 isolates (n = 123) were divided into groups according to origin, genotype (pulsed-field gel electrophoresis [PFGE] type, or ribotype), type of Stx produced, or phage type (PT). The survival rate ([number of CFU after 24 h of drying/number of CFU before drying] x 100) for each isolate was determined in triplicate after drying on concrete for 24.0 h. The overall...
