Staphylococcus aureus controls interleukin-5 release in upper airway inflammation [PDF]
Staphylococcus aureus is a frequent colonizer of the upper airways in chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps, but also resides intramucosally, it has been shown that secreted staphylococcal proteins such as enterotoxins and serine proteases induce the ...

Detection of Staphylococcal Enterotoxin in Food [PDF]
Methods are described for the extraction and serological detection of trace amounts of enterotoxins A and B in foods incriminated in outbreaks of staphylococcal food poisoning. Evidence is presented for the probable applicability of the methods for the detection of unidentified enterotoxins.

Staphylococcus aureus is a gram-positive bacterium, commonly found in the nostrils, on the skin and on the hair of warm-blooded animals, including humans. It can produce a wide variety of virulence factors, including staphylococcal enterotoxins (SEs). In

Production of Antiserum for Staphylococcal Enterotoxin [PDF]
Immunization of rabbits with approximately 95% pure enterotoxin B and approximately 20 and 50% pure enterotoxin A yielded specific antisera which required no and little absorption, respectively, when used in the slide double-diffusion test. Methods for purifying enterotoxin A and for the production and absorption of antisera are presented.

How Should Staphylococcal Food Poisoning Outbreaks Be Characterized?
Staphylococcal food poisoning is one of the most common food-borne diseases and results from the ingestion of staphylococcal enterotoxins (SEs) preformed in food by enterotoxigenic strains of Staphylococcus aureus.

Contribution of natural milk culture to microbiota, safety and hygiene of raw milk cheese produced in alpine malga [PDF]
Processing of alpine milk in malga farms is carried out under conditions that can favor contamination by coliforms, coagulase-positive staphylococci, or pathogens such as Listeria monocytogenes.

Enterotoxigenic Potential of Coagulase-Negative Staphylococci from Ready-to-Eat Food
Although coagulase-positive staphylococci are considered to be the main factor responsible for food poisoning, an increasing role for the coagulase-negative staphylococci in the production of enterotoxins has been observed in recent years. This study was
