“…Although this prevalence is relatively low, it should be pointed out that serogroup O111 has been involved in most non-O157 STEC infections (2). Besides, STEC O111 has been reported as responsible for outbreaks (6,8,9,23,37) and also sporadic cases (15,18,19,46). STEC strains carrying the eae gene are considered more virulent for humans than strains lacking eae (1).…”

“…Entretanto, embora a presença de STEC possa ser minimizada através de medidas de higiene e controle, é impossível sua erradicação do ambiente, uma vez que os animais são colonizados de forma assintomática e pelo fato de sobreviverem por longos períodos nas fezes, pasto e água (Caprioli et al, 2005).…”

“…Tendo em vista que existe uma forte associação entre a presença de Stx2 e o desenvolvimento de SHU (Caprioli et al, 2005) e que a combinação de stx 2 e eaeA contribui para o desenvolvimento de infecções mais severas, assim como a presença de ehxA (Beutin et al, 1998;Boerlin et al, 1999;Welinder-Olsson et al, 2002;Eklund et al, 2002;Friedrich et al, 2002;Vaz et al, 2004;Prager et al, 2005;Bastos et al, 2006;Souza et al, 2007;Possé et al, 2007) (Erickson e Doyle, 2007). Sendo assim, a grande maioria dos estudos sobre STEC é direcionado apenas à pesquisa deste sorotipo (Chapman et al, 2001;Cagney et al, 2004;Arthur et al, 2007;Shriver-Lake et al, 2007;Varela-Hernández et al, 2007;Roldán et al, 2007;Brichta-Harhay et al, 2008;Hiko et al, 2008;Sarimehmetoglu et al, 2009;Arthur et al, 2009;Bosilevac et al, 2009;Dodd et al, 2010;Jacob et al, 2010b (Cerqueira et al, 1997;Bergamini et al, 2007;Rodolpho e Marin, 2007).…”
