ISO/DIS 13136-2 is a Draft International Standard that details a horizontal method for characterizing Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) isolates. This standard, currently in the enquiry phase with ISO members, focuses on identifying and characterizing STEC strains. It covers aspects like subtyping of Shiga toxin genes, presence of virulence genes (eae, aggR), and identification of genes associated with specific STEC serogroups.
