Abstract excerpt
To rapidly identify the presence of potentially virulent O157:H7 and non-O157 Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC), a PCR-based Luminex suspension assay was developed to detect the genes coding for four virulence factors (stx1, stx2, eae, and ehxA) plus the O157:H7-specific +93 uidA single nucleotide polymorphism.
