E. coli: Research Prevention
Escherichia coli or E. coli is a common bacterium. Most strains are harmless, but some strains, can cause serious - sometimes life threatening - food poisoning in humans, and are occasionally responsible for product recalls. Dr. James Kaper, professor and chairman of the Department of Microbiology and Immunology at the University of Maryland School of Medicine is researching one of the most dangerous E. Coli strains: O157:H7, which has been tied to a number of deadly outbreaks. Researchers are studying how the bacterium colonizes and investigating possible vaccines. Consumers should be careful to thoroughly cook meat and avoid cross contamination of uncooked foods to avoid E. coli contamination. http://www.medschool.umaryland.eduFrom:schoolofmedicineViews:8 0ratingsTime:03:27More inEducation
