Detection of shiga toxin 1 and 2 (stx1 and stx2) genes in escherichia coli O157:H7 isolated from retail beef in Malaysia by Multiplex Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR)

Twenty (n=20) beef isolates of Escherichia coli O157:H7 were examined for the detection of Shiga- toxin 1 and 2 (stx1 and stx2) genes by multiplex polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and characterized using Random Amplified Polymorphic DNA-Polymerase Chain Reaction (RAPD-PCR) fingerprinting. All isolate...
