The European Union has recognised the threat posed by E. coli O157:H7 and the need to devise control strategies based on an understanding of VTEC pathogenicity, transmission, survival and growth. It also acknowledges the imortance of informing farmers, veterinarians, food producers and health authorities so that each of these groups can act appropriately to reduce the overall hazards posed by these 606 $aEscherichia coli infections 606 $aEscherichia coli O157:H7 615 0$aEscherichia coli infections. 615 0$aEscherichia coli O157:H7. 676 $a616.9 676 $a616.926 701 $aDuffy$b Geraldine$0896369 701 $aGarvey$b Patricia$0896370 701 $aMcDowell$b David A$0896371 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996197278303316 996 $aVerocytotoxigenic E. coli$92002555 997 $aUNISA
