Resumo: Escherichia coli O157: H7 is one of the most important foodborne pathogens nowadays, since it has been responsible for severe outbreaks worldwide. Even though this food pathogen has been isolated in many countries, Brazilian foods were considered E. coli O157:H7- free until recently. However, the presence of E. coli O157:H7 has been reported in diverse foods produced in Brazil and an increasing number of isolation from cattle feces has been observed, demonstrating that this pathogen is present in different parts of Brazil, and severe foodborne outbreaks may occur in the near future if adequate control measures are not implemented.

Even though this food pathogen has been isolated in many countries, Brazilian foods were considered E. coli O157:H7- free until recently.

Several studies evaluate numerous food samples indicating a low frequency of isolation of E. coli O157:H7 in Brazilian products. However, these data should be interpreted carefully since in Brazil there is no systematic monitoring that might indicate the true situation of the occurrence of this bacteria in food and several clinical cases of Hemolytic Uremic Syndrome (HUS),  have been recorded, including one associated with E. coli O157:H7. Moreover, numerous researches has been indicating the increasingly frequent isolation of microorganisms in animal reservoirs, mainly in cattle, suggesting the necessity of monitoring of shiga toxin-producing strains (STEC), because in a globalized world, emerging microorganisms could be rapidly disseminated. The objective of this study is to present the current situation of E. coli O157: H7 in Brazil.HCPA/FAMED/UFRGS2014-07-09info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionPeer-reviewed ArticleAvaliados por Paresapplication/pdfhttps://seer.ufrgs.br/index.php/hcpa/article/view/46639Clinical & Biomedical Research; Vol. 34 No. 2 (2014): Clinical and Biomedical ResearchClinical and Biomedical Research; v. 34 n. 2 (2014): Clinical and Biomedical Research2357-9730reponame:Clinical and Biomedical Researchinstname:Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul (UFRGS)instacron:UFRGSenghttps://seer.ufrgs.br/index.php/hcpa/article/view/46639/30853Paula, Cheila Minéia Daniel deLoiko, Márcia ReginaTondo, Eduardo Cesarinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2024-01-19T13:30:44Zoai:seer.ufrgs.br:article/46639Revistahttps://www.seer.ufrgs.br/index.php/hcpaPUBhttps://seer.ufrgs.br/index.php/hcpa/oai||cbr@hcpa.edu.br2357-97302357-9730opendoar:2024-01-19T13:30:44Clinical and Biomedical Research - Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul (UFRGS)false
