title: [Demonstration of the toxic shock syndrome toxin (TSST-1) in S. aureus using a modified ELISA procedure and antibody demonstration in gamma globulin preparations].
abstract: A modified ELISA for the detection of toxic shock syndrome toxin (TSST-1) from staphylococcal isolates is described. It displayed 100% correlation with the procedure based on isoelectric focusing and microslide precipitation. Commercially available immunoglobulins exhibited high antitoxin titres and it is suggested that they be used therapeutically.
