Abstract excerpt

The prevalence and genotype of Shiga-like toxins (SLTs) in Escherichia coli (O)157 strains from patients in Germany with haemolytic uraemic syndrome (HUS) were investigated. This was done by PCR amplification of the B-subunit genes with two primer pairs--one complementary to slt-IB, and the other homologous to both slt-IIB and slt-IIvB sequences. To distinguish between slt-II and slt-IIv, the amplified DNA was...
