title: [The occurrence of cytotonic and cytotoxic enterotoxins in Salmonella].
abstract: A survey is given on the presence and the detection of entero- and cytotoxin production of Salmonella. Their role in the pathogenesis of Salmonellosis has not yet been clarified completely. The standardization of the terms of toxins according place and modus of action is proposed. Cytotonic and cytotoxic enterotoxins were demonstrated in Salmonella strains. Toxins, like the Verotoxin of E. coli, acting in enterocytes as well as in other cells of organisms have not been detected in Salmonella strains. For detection cell culture assays are preferred, DNA-hybridization will be of importance in the near future.
