title: Detection of staphylococcal enterotoxigenicity. II. Field strains.
abstract: The immunodiffusion micromethod was used to detect enterotoxin production in 5974 staphylococcal strains isolated during 1972-1978 from food, human milk and various specimens of clincial material. Of a total number of examined strain there were identified 3001 staphylococcal strains that produced the following enterotoxins or enterotoxin combinations: A, B, C, D, E, A + B, A + C, A + D, A + E, B + D, C + E and A + C + E.
