Figure Lengend Snippet: ClustalW alignment of the stx1 (A), stx2 (B), and eae (C) genes from STEC strains is presented. Target sequences for stx1 , stx2 , and eae from E. coli O157:H7 (strain EDL933*) were retrieved from the GenBank database (accession number CP008957.1). Annotation labels indicate the binding regions for the primers, including outer primers (F3, B3), loop primers (LF, LB), forward inner primer (FIP; F1c, F2), and backward inner primer (BIP; B1c, B2). Shading indicates sequence similarity as follows: black (100%), dark gray (80–100%), light gray (60–80%), and white (<60%). Sequence logos, generated using Geneious 2019.2.1 software, display the consensus across the sequences.
Article Snippet: Furthermore, three non-pathogenic reference E. coli strains (ATCC 43745, 25922, and K12), and four non- E. coli bacteria ( Salmonella cholerasuis ATCC BAA 664 , Salmonella typhimurium ATCC 14028, Pseudomonas aeruginosa , and Staphylococcus aureus ) were provided by Department of Animal Science, University of Tennessee.
