Kwik-Stik ATCC BAA-2326 Escherichia coli, 6/PackTRUE

• E.coli ATCC BAA-2326
• Clinical laboratories are the front line in detecting Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) disease
• They are responsible for the initial detection of suspect cases by testing primary specimens
• The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) recommends that, "All stools submitted for testing from patients with acute community-acquired diarrhea should be cultured for STEC O157
• These stools should be simultaneously assayed for non-O157 STEC with a test that detects Shiga toxins or the genes encoding these toxins"
• Microbiologics is the world's first and only supplier to offer O157 and non-O157 Shiga toxin-producing E. coli (STEC) in easy-to-use, prepared formats for quality control testing
• Clinical testing laboratories can utilize STEC QC microorganisms from Microbiologics to validate, verify and perform routine quality control checks of their STEC test methods
