Abstract excerpt
Naturally occurring enterohemolysin negative variants were observed during studies on bovine Shiga-like toxin-producing E. coli (SLTEC). Examination of three strains (413/89-1 and 332, 026:H-, and 570/89, O111:H-) and their isogenic variants (413/89-6, 332-I and 570/89-I, respectively) showed, that in each strain loss of the enterohemolytic phenotype correlated with the loss of a large plasmid ranging from 94 to...
