Verocytotxin producing "Escherichia coli (VTEC), " and in
particular, strains of serogroup o157, have emerged as significant
pathogens causing a range of severe and potentially fatal
illnesses. The European Union has recognised the threat posed by E.
coli O157: H7 and the need to devise control strategies based on an
understanding of VTEC pathogenicity, transmission, survival and
growth. It also acknowledges the imortance of informing farmers,
veterinarians, food producers and health authorities so that each
of these groups can act appropriately to reduce the overall hazards
posed by these organisms. To contribute to the development and
dissemination of effect control strategies, the European Commission
funded a Concerted Action Project "A European study on animal,
food, and biomedical aspects of verocytotoxigenic E. coli including
serotype O157: H7, an emerging pathogen" (CT98-3935) within the
Agriculture and Agro-industry Framework IV Research Programme
(1998-2001). This book, compiled under the auspices of the above
project, integrates contributions from project participants and
invited contributor, to provide a comprehensive overview of the
current state of research on VTEC. It will be invaluable to current
workers in this area, and those seeking an effective introduction
to research on this important pathogen
