Interaction of Escherichia coli and soil particles in runoff

Article Abstract:

A laboratory-scale model is developed to study the mechanism involved in the horizontal transport of Escherichia coli under saturation-excess flow conditions, focusing on the potential for E. coli to attach to soil particles during transport. The results have shown that in runoff generated by saturation-excess conditions, bacteria are rapidly transported across the surface and have little opportunity to interact with the soil matrix.

Sensitivity of an immunomagnetic-separation-based test for detecting Escherichia coli O26 in bovine feces

Article Abstract:

A study estimated the sensitivity of a test for cattle shedding Escherichia coli serogroup O26 using several fecal pats artificially inoculated at a range of concentrations with different E. coli O26 strains. Results suggest that the test is useful for identifying individuals shedding a large number of E. coli O26 organisms or, if an appropriate number of individuals in a herd are sampled, for identifying affected herds.

Advantage provided by iron for Escherichia coli growth and cultivability in drinking water

Article Abstract:

The presence of iron, used as a nutrient and as an electron acceptor, was demonstrated to give an iron to Escherichia coli bacteria in drinking water. Slight additions of ferrous sulfate to water with initial low iron concentrations led to a significant increase in the number of Escherichia coli bacteria.
