Microbiology of the food chain - Detection, isolation and characterization of Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) - Part 1: Horizontal method for the detection and isolation of Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) (ISO/DIS 13136-1:2024)
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.
