Distribution of Shiga toxin genes subtypes in B phylotypes of Escherichia coli isolated from calves suffering from diarrhea in Tehran suburb using DNA oligonucleotide arrays

Background and Objectives: Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) have emerged as human pathogens and con- tamination via animal origin has been a major public health concern. We compared the distribution of phylogenetic groups and prevalence of stx gene variants among the pathogenic strains...
