Abstract

Nucleic sequences of plasmid origin are isolated from bacteria of the enterohaemorrhagic Escherichia coli group (EHEC) and used for the identification of EHEC(s), especially those possessing the genes encoding the virulence factors enterohaemolysin and intimin, and more particularly the specific detection of serotype O157:H7, and in detection kits.
