We orally inoculated Rana catesbeiana tadpoles (n=23) and metamorphs (n=24) to test their suitability as hosts for Escherichia coli O157:H7. Tadpoles were housed in flowthrough aquaria and did not become infected. Metamorphs were housed in stagnant aquaria, and 54% tested positive through 14 days postinoculation, suggesting that they are suitable hosts for E. coli O157:H7.
我们对牛蛙蝌蚪(n = 23)和变态幼蛙(n = 24)进行口服接种,以测试它们作为大肠杆菌O157:H7宿主的适宜性。蝌蚪饲养在流水水族箱中,未被感染。变态幼蛙饲养在静水水族箱中,接种后14天内54%检测呈阳性,表明它们是大肠杆菌O157:H7的适宜宿主。
