In May 2011, a virtually unknown strain of E. coli, known as O104:H4, made worldwide headlines when an outbreak in Germany sickened approximately 4,000 On 21 May 2011, Germany reported an ongoing outbreak of Shiga-toxin producing Escherichia coli (STEC), serotype O104:H4. From an initial case control study, the outbreak was associated with the consumption of fresh salad vegetables. Subsequent investigations showed that the risk of infection was significantly associated with the consumption of fresh sprouted seeds rather than with other fresh When researchers committed to first mapping E. coli genomes back at the turn of the millennium, the sequencing process was a considerable technological undertaking, requiring millions of dollars REVIEW Open Access O157:H7 and O104:H4 Vero/Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli outbreaks: respective role of cattle and humans Denis Piérard1, Henri De Greve2,3, Freddy Haesebrouck4 and Jacques Mainil5* Culture Collections - consists of four UK Culture Collections including: European Collection of Cell Cultures (ECACC), National Collection of Type Cultures (NCTC), National Collection of Pathogenic Viruses (NCPV) and the National Collection of Pathogenic Fungi (NCPF). There is an outbreak of Escherichia coli O104:H4 infection in France, south of Bordeaux, where 8 cases of haemolytic uraemic syndrome (HUS) and 8 cases of bloody diarrhoea have been reported. This rare infection is caused by the same serotype, and probably the same strain, as seen in the recent and severe outbreak in Germany, which started in May. This document is an update of the EFSA/ECDC joint rapid risk assessment of 29 June and aims to add new information to this and earlier initial rapid risk assessments (27 May and 14 June 2011). The E. coli O104:H4 Test is a rapid latex agglutination test, designed solely for the presumptive identification of Escherichia coli serogroup O104 cultured on In May 2011, public health authorities in Europe began investigating an outbreak of Shiga toxin–producing Escherichia coli (STEC) O104:H4 infections that ultimately involved more than 4,000 persons in 16 countries.

On July 27, a team led by researchers at the University of Maryland School of Medicine Institute for Genome Sciences published a paper in the New England Journal of Medicine on the completed genome AP reports a few moments ago that local German organic vegetable sprouts have been linked epidemiologically to the E. coli O104:H4 outbreak that has killed 30 people and sickened nearly 3,000 – nearly 750 with Hemolytic Uremic Syndrome. This document is an update of the EFSA/ECDC joint rapid risk assessment of 29 June and aims to add new information to this and earlier initial rapid risk assessments (27 May and 14 June 2011). The O104:H4 Shiga-toxic Escherichia coli (STEC) strain, designated NCTC 13562, responsible for the largest recorded STEC outbreak of haemolytic uraemic syndrome and bloody diarrhoea is available from PHE’s National Collection of Type Cultures (NCTC). The outbreak occurred in Germany in 2011, affecting 3900 people and resulting in 53 deaths.

The objective of this review was the characterization of 2011 Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) O104:H4 outbreak and its management. Also, a review of the literature to assess state of the art for STEC–haemolytic–uraemic syndrome (HUS) epidemiology, pathogenesis, management and prognosis, focusing on critically ill adults.

The EFSA Task Force established to coordinate investigations to track down the possible source of the French and German outbreaks of E. coli O104:H4 has concluded that one lot of fenugreek seeds imported from Egypt and used to produce sprouts is the most likely common link between the two outbreaks. By James Andrews on September 9, 2013. In May 2011, a virtually unknown strain of E. coli, known as O104:H4, made worldwide headlines when an outbreak in Germany sickened approximately 4,000 On 21 May 2011, Germany reported an ongoing outbreak of Shiga-toxin producing Escherichia coli (STEC), serotype O104:H4.

The cases recorded in Germany were 3078 EHEC and 857 HUS cases, with 48 dead; in other countries, there were 89 EHEC and 51 HUS cases. The Robert Koch Institute (RKI), the university medical center Hamburg- Eppendorf, and the health department of the Hamburg AP reports a few moments ago that local German organic vegetable sprouts have been linked epidemiologically to the E. coli O104:H4 outbreak that has killed 30 people and sickened nearly 3,000 – nearly 750 with Hemolytic Uremic Syndrome. A key event in the evolution of fully virulent E. coli O104H4 capable of causing HUS was acquisition of O104H4-G (the stx 2-containing prophage). This group of prophages exhibits relatively minimal variation (see Fig. S3G in the supplemental material), consistent with the idea that lysogenization of the ancestor of clades 1 and 2 with a Shiga toxin-encoding phage occurred relatively recently.
