How Are Fresh and Frozen Ground Beef Products Contaminated with E. coli?

E coli HamburgersWhen meat is ground, more of the meat is exposed to the harmful bacteria. The bacteria that causes the most outbreaks linked to ground beef hamburgers is E. coli O157:H7, a strain of E. coli that produces large quantities of a potent toxin that forms in the intestine and causes severe damage to the lining of the intestine. The disease produced by the bacteria is called Hemorrhagic Colitis. In some cases, the E. coli infection causes hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS), the leading cause of kidney failure in the United States.
