Escherichia coli A0 34/86 (O83:K24:H31) has been successfully used for prophylactic and therapeutic intestinal colonization of premature and newborn infants, with the aim of preventing nosocomial infections. Although E. coli A0 34/86 was described as a nonpathogenic commensal, partial sequencing revealed that its genome harbours gene clusters highly homologous to virulence determinants of different types of E. coli, including closely linked genes of the a-haemolysin operon (hlyCABD) and for the cytotoxic necrotizing factor (cnf1). A haemolysin-deficient mutant (hlyA) of E. coli A0 34/86 was generated and its colonization capacity was determined. The results show that a single dose of the A0 34/86 wild-type or hlyA strains resulted in efficient intestinal colonization of newborn conventional piglets, and that this was still considerable after several weeks
Kmen Escherichia coli A0 34/86 (O83:K24:H31) je úspěšně používán pro preventivní kolonizaci novorozenců. V této práci ukazujeme, že jeho bezpečnost lze ještě vylepšit odstraněním genu pro hemolyzín, což neovlivní kolonizační schopnosti kmene v prasečím experimentálním modelu
