Abstract
This standard describes the detection and isolation of Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC). The procedure includes the detection by Real Time PCR of the major virulence genes of STEC, stx1 and stx2 (Reference [2]) in enrichment cultures. Isolation of STEC from the enrichment culture is attempted if one or both stx genes are detected in the screening. This document is applicable to — products intended for human consumption, — products intended for animal feeding, — environmental samples in the area of food and feed production, handling, and — samples from the primary production stage.
