Impact of microbial diversity on rapid detection of enterohemorrhagic<i>Escherichia coli</i>in surface waters
20 Jun 2006
Abstract excerpt
Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) are a physiologically, immunologically and genetically diverse collection of strains that pose a serious water-borne threat to human health. Consequently, immunological and PCR assays have been developed for the rapid, sensitive detection of presumptive EHEC. However, the ability of these assays to consistently detect presumptive EHEC while excluding closely related...
