  • Title: Enterotoxin production by Staphylococcus aureus related to the origin of the strains.
    Author: Olsvik O, Berdal BP, Fossum K, Omland T.
    Journal: Acta Pathol Microbiol Scand B; 1981 Dec; 89(6):423-6. PubMed ID: 7336929.
    Abstract:
    The production of enterotoxins by strains of Staphylococcus aureus of human and animal origin seems to be common. 104 out of 170 strains (61%) produced one or more of the A, B, and C enterotoxins. Strains from cow and milk often produced enterotoxin C, and enterotoxin A producing strains were mainly isolated from dogs. Human food poisoning seemed in our material to be induced by enterotoxin A producing strains.
