Genotypic and phenotypic evidence of extended-spectrum β-lactamase and carbapenemase-producing shigatoxigenic and intimin-producing Escherichia coli in diarrheic calves in Bangladesh: A hidden zoonotic and public health risk.

Abstract excerpt

Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) is a pathotype of E. coli associated with a wide variety of diarrhoea in neonatal calves, causing a global economic loss in the dairy industry with significant zoonotic risks via STEC and intimin-producing STEC, resulting in enteric and systemic illness, including diarrhoea, haemorrhagic colitis (HC), and haemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS) in humans. The presence of...
