Description
Tahrima Saiha Huq and coauthors survey toxin making E coli in cattle at a Dhaka market in 2026. Rectal swabs and meat cuts yielded 354 isolates from 2017 to 2018. Toxin genes showed in 64.4 percent of isolates, a high share.
Resistance was common to several older drugs, yet rare to a few key ones, and absent for imipenem. Eleven genomes lacked the classic grip gene but carried other grip and stress genes. Some cattle strains sit near human and food strains on the family tree. All made weak to mid strength biofilms. Cattle markets emerge as a watch point for food safety.
