EPEC lack ST and LT toxins, but they use an adhesin known as intimin to bind host intestinal cells.
The evolution of bacteria on a "Mega-Plate" petri dish A list of antibiotic resistant bacteria is provided below. These bacteria have shown antibiotic resistance (or antimicrobial resistance). Gram positive Clostridioides difficile Clostridioides difficile is a nosocomial pathogen that causes diarrheal disease worldwide. Diarrhea caused by C. difficile can be life-threatening. Infections are ...
E. coli is a chemoheterotroph whose chemically defined medium must include a source of carbon and energy. [16] E. coli is the most widely studied prokaryotic model organism, and an important species in the fields of biotechnology and microbiology, where it has served as the host organism for the majority of work with recombinant DNA.

Just how sick a dog gets can depend on the type and amount of chocolate; cocoa powder is considered the most toxic, milk chocolate less so. You can calculate risk based on how much and what was eaten.
