Development of a real-time PCR assay and comparison to CHROMagar(TM) STEC to screen for Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli in stool, Cape Town, South Africa
INTRODUCTION: Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) is an emerging infectious pathogen which could lead to haemolytic uremic syndrome. Even though previous studies have compared the performance of CHROMagar(TM)STEC to real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) in Europe, no study has been don...
