Prevalence of the Multi-drug Resistance of Shiga Toxin-producing Escherichia coli Isolated from Pigs in Central Thailand
Shiga toxin-producing E. coli (STEC), a strain producing cytotoxins known as Shiga toxins (Stxs, encoded by EVS and EVC genes), can cause neonatal and post-weaning diarrhea (PWD) in pigs, leading to substantial economic loss in the form of medication costs, reduced growth rate, and increased morbidi...
