Verocytotoxin‐producing Escherichia coli: a veterinary view
2000
Synge, B.A.
This overview places verocytotoxin‐producing Escherichia coli (VTEC) in perspective with other E. coli types that cause disease in animals. VTEC O157 and other verocytotoxin‐producing serotypes cause severe disease in man but to date, although other VTEC are found in animals, zoonosis appears to be associated with E. coli O157 only. The epidemiology of E. coli O157 in cattle has been studied in Scotland, and this work is described alongside current knowledge.
