[Objective] This study aimed to investigate the outer membrane protein (OMP) patterns of Escherichia coli 038, 053 and 075 isolates from chickens. [Method] Eight pathogenic E. coil isolates with various serotypes were used as experimental materials to extract OMP by using supersonic schizolysis method and Sarcosyl. After SDS-PAGE electrophoresis, OMP patterns of the extracted products were determined based on the OMP model diagram. [Result] OMP of eight E. coil isolates with three serotypes were divided into three patterns, to be specific, 2 075 isolates respectively belonged to OMP-I and OMP-II pattern, 1 053 isolate belonged to OMP-II pattern, and 5 038 isolates belonged to OMP-I and OMP-III pattern. [Conclusion] Experimental results showed that E. coli isolates with the same serotype may belong to completely different OMP patterns, while serologically unrelated isolates may belong to the same OMP pattern. OMP of E. coil isolates with the same serotype may generate genetic differentiation; in addition, OMP of E. coli isolates with different serotypes may have different genetic correlation.
[Objective] This study aimed to explore the presence of three causative genes Colv,Stxs and HlyE of the pathogenic E.coli from chickens,pigs and food.[Method] By using 44 E.coli strains from chickens,24 from pigs and 26 from food as the experimental materials,virulence genes Colv,Stxs(stx2,stx2e) and HlyE were detected with polymerase chain reaction(PCR) method.[Result] Among all the E.coli strains,the detection rate of Colv was 25% from chickens,4.2% from pigs,and 0 from food;the detection rate of Stx2(Stx2e) from all E.coli strains was 0;the detection rate of HlyE was 2.27% from chickens,0 from pigs,and 11.5% from food.[Conclusion] Virulence gene Colv shows relatively high carrying rate in E.coli from chickens and pigs;HlyE also shows a certain degree of presence in E.coli from chickens and food.
