title: [Enterotoxigenicity of gram-negative microorganisms isolated from the region of congenital cleft palate in children].
abstract: One hundred and ninety four stains of opportunistic gram negative bacteria were isolated from 106 children with congenital cleft palate. 83 of them (42.7 per cent) reduced enterotoxin. For comparison, microflora of the oral cavity in 32 healthy children was investigated and 40 strains of opportunistic gram negative organisms were isolated. Only 3 of them proved to be enterotoxigenic. Therefore, the frequency of the enterotoxigenic bacteria in the children with cleft palate was higher than that in the healthy children.
