Journal ArticleDOI
Antimicrobial resistance of Shiga toxin (verotoxin)-producing Escherichia coli O157:H7 and non-O157 strains isolated from humans, cattle, sheep and food in Spain.
Azucena Mora,Jesús E. Blanco,Miguel Blanco,M. Pilar Alonso,Ghizlane Dhabi,A. Echeita,Enrique A. González,M. Isabel Bernárdez,Jorge Blanco +8 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that the high prevalence of antimicrobial resistance detected in this study is a source of concern, and cautious use of antibiotics in animals is highly recommended.
Journal ArticleDOI
Antimicrobial resistance in salmonellae from humans, food and animals in Spain in 1998
TL;DR: Restriction of the use of antibiotics in veterinary medicine is recommended in order to reduce the selection and spread of multiresistant strains.
Journal ArticleDOI
DNA Microarray-Based Typing of an Atypical Monophasic Salmonella enterica Serovar
Javier Garaizar,Steffen Porwollik,A. Echeita,Aitor Rementeria,Silvia Herrera,Rita Mei-Yi Wong,Jonathan G. Frye,M. A. Usera,Michael McClelland +8 more
TL;DR: While the microarray data for all isolates of the new serovar were essentially identical for all LT2 chromosomal genes, the isolates differed in their similarity to pSLT, consistent with the heterogeneity in plasmid content among isolatesof the newserovar.
Journal ArticleDOI
Serotypes, virulence genes and intimin types of Shiga toxin (verocytotoxin)-producing Escherichia coli isolates from minced beef in Lugo (Spain) from 1995 through 2003
Azucena Mora,Miguel Blanco,Jesús E. Blanco,Ghizlane Dahbi,Cecilia López,Paula Justel,María Pilar Alonso,A. Echeita,María Isabel Bernárdez,Enrique A. González,Jorge Blanco +10 more
TL;DR: M minced beef in the city of Lugo is confirmed as vehicles of highly pathogenic STEC, with serotypes different from O157:H7 also play an important role in food contamination in Spain, including the highly virulent seropathotype O26:H11 stx1eae-β1.
Journal ArticleDOI
Interregional foodborne salmonellosis outbreak due to powdered infant formula contaminated with lactose-fermenting Salmonella virchow.
M. A. Usera,A. Echeita,A. Aladueña,M. C. Blanco,R. Reymundo,M. I. Prieto,O. Tello,R. Cano,D. Herrera,F. Martinez-Navarro +9 more
TL;DR: Spain's Salmonella surveillance system backed by regionally-based epidemiologists around the country made it possible to detect and halt the spread of a foodborne salmonellosis outbreak due to powdered infant formula contaminated with a lactose-fermenting strain ofSalmonella virchow.
