E. coli belongs to the genus Escherichia

Taxonomically, <em>Escherichia coli </em>is categorized as belonging to the phylum Proteobacteria, class Gammaproteobacteria, family Enterobacteriaceae, order Enterobacteriales, and genus Escherichia (named after its discoverer, Theodor Escherich).

  • Escherichia coli (E. coli) are typically found in warm-blooded organisms' lower intestines. The majority of E. coli strains are not harmful, but some can seriously poison food.

  • A  Shiga toxin-producing E. coli (STEC) is capable of causing severe foodborne illness.
  • Raw or undercooked ground meat products, raw milk, and fecal contamination of vegetables are the most common causes of STEC outbreaks.
  • The illness is usually self-limiting, but it can progress to a potentially fatal condition like haemolytic uraemic syndrome (HUS), especially in young children and the elderly.
