Embodiment 1

[0031] Example 1 Isolation of Prior Antibiotic Bacteria

[0032] Isolation of pre-antibiotic-resistant bacteria from livestock feces or livestock gastrointestinal tissue (small intestine and colon). Fecal samples were collected from livestock that were confirmed negative for E. coli O157:H7 by fecal testing. Use 0.1M phosphate buffer (pH7.2) [PBS] to make a 1:10 serial dilution of the stool sample, and take 0.1ml of each dilution and plate it on a sorbitol MacConkey agar (SMA) plate. Plates were incubated at 37°C for 16 hours until 10 colonies were randomly selected and each colony was transferred to a tube containing 10 ml of Tryptic Soy Broth (TSB) (BBL, Becton Dickinson, Cockeysville, MD). The culture solution was incubated at 37°C for 16 hours. Tissue samples (1 g each) were homogenized at 9,500 rpm for 1 minute (Ultra-Turrax T25 homogenizer, Janke & Kunkel IKA-labortechnik, Germany), and then 0.1 ml each was spread on the surface of an SMA plate. Plates were incubated ...

Embodiment 2

[0033] Example 2 Screening of cultures resistant to Escherichia coli O157:H7 properties

[0034] The culture supernatants were screened against E. coli O157:H7 metabolites with a mixture of 5 strains of E. coli O157:H7, including 932 (human isolate), C7927 (human isolate), E009 (meat isolate), E0018 (livestock isolate) and E0122 (livestock isolate). Roughly equalize about 10 per plant 7 E. coli O157:H7 in 0.1 ml was surface plated on duplicate plates of SMA and TSA. A disc (12 mm in diameter) was placed on the surface of each SMA and TSA plate, and 0.1 ml of the filter-sterilized supernatant of a single culture was added to the disc surface. Additionally, disks containing 70% ethanol (positive control) and PBS (negative control) were added to each plate. Cultures were incubated at 37°C for 18 hours and zones of inhibition were observed. A clear band above 1mm was regarded as a positive reaction.

Embodiment 3

[0035] Example 3 Preparation of Escherichia coli O157:H7 culture

[0036] Use the same 5-strain mixture as above. To facilitate enumeration of these bacterial isolates, tolerance to nalidixic acid (50 μg / ml) was induced in these strains. Transfer each nalidixic acid-resistant Escherichia coli O157:H7 strain to 10 ml of tryptic digested soybean broth (TSB) containing nalidixic acid (50 μg / ml), and incubate at 37°C with shaking (150rpm) for 16- 18 hours. Transfer 2 ml of the suspension of each isolate into 300 ml of TSB. After incubation at 37°C for 16-18 hours, the bacteria were pelleted by centrifugation (4,000×g, 20 minutes), and washed 3 times with PBS. Add PBS in the bacterium of precipitation, its amount is to obtain optical density (O.D.) 0.5 (10 8 CFU / ml) required amount. Before the oral inoculation of calves, 5 strains of Escherichia coli O157:H7 isolates (2 × 10 9 CFU) was mixed in 250ml of 2% sterilized skimmed milk. The number of bacterial colonies was determi...

Abstract

The superiority prior antibiotic strain was isolated. Feeding the isolated strain to ruminants prevents colonization of the animals by the pathogen E. coli 0157:H7. The strain was reisolated from the contents of the gastrointestinal tract of vaccinated animals 28 days after inoculation. Animals previously infected with E. coli 0157:H7 can be treated to reduce or eliminate the pathogen by administering any of the advantageous prior antibiotic bacteria of the present invention.

Description

field of invention [0001] The present invention relates to the control of enterohaemorrhagic Escherichia coli O157:H7 in livestock with pre-antibiotic bacteria. Background technique [0002] Escherichia coli (E. coli) O157:H7, an important human pathogen that causes hemorrhagic colitis and hemolytic uremic syndrome, has been reported with increasing frequency as a cause of human disease over the past decade (for review, see Bell, P.B. et al. (1994) JAMA 272 : 1349-1353; Griffin, P.M. et al. (1991) Epidemiol. Rev. 13 : 60-98; Padhye, N.Y. et al. (1992) J. Food Prot. 55 :555-565). Livestock (particularly young animals) have been identified as a major reservoir of E. coli O157:H7, with undercooked ground beef being the primary vector for foodborne outbreaks. Also, there has been a dramatic increase in the number of outbreaks associated with fruits, juices, vegetables (lettuce) and water (including recreational lakes) in recent years. [0003] A recent national survey by th...
