(OP) User ID: 1499647 United States 06/08/2012 11:02 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | E. coli O145 outbreaks have been more of a problem in Europe and Australia, but the O145 strain is becoming an important public health problem in the United States. Identifying E. coli O145 can be difficult1: Unlike E. coli O157:H7 strains, which generally do not ferment sorbitol or have b-glucuronidase activity, the non–O157 STEC EHEC (including E. coli O145) do not have identifiable biochemical markers to facilitate screening for these pathogens.
