Figure 1 PCR analysis of the VT1 and VT2 genes in stool samples. Lane 1: O157:H7 VT1 + VT2-producing E. coli. Lanes 2 to 5, stools of HUS patients: lane 2, VT1 gene; lanes 3 and 4, VT2 gene; lane 5, no VT genes. Lane 6: stools of a healthy child. Lane 7: DNA size marker V (Boerhinger Mannheim, Mannheim, FRG). IC = internal control.
