Cross-protection of acid-adapted Escherichia coli O157:H7 against inimical stresses is mediated by the glucose-repressed sigma factor RpoS. However, many food systems in which E. coli O157:H7 occurs are complex and contain ...

Survival of Escherichia coli O157:H7 in fermented dairy products has been attributed to acid-adaptation. Acid-adaptation enhances resistance to extreme acid pH and confers cross-protection to heterologous stresses. This ...
