The laboratory methods for the detection, identification, and typing of STEC and other pathogenic E. coli developed by the EURL-VTEC are available in this section.

A report on the performance data of the ISO/TS 13136:2012 method for the detection of STEC in food, based on the results of the PTs organized by the EURL, is also available in the list. Such a report can be used as reference for the purpose of the method’s accreditation.
