Abstract(s)

Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) are foodborne pathogens that can cause serious diseases in humans, including bloody diarrhoea and kidney failure. Ruminants, such as cattle, are considered the main reservoirs and source of STEC. Human infection can occur through contaminated food and water, or direct contact with infected animals.
