Antibodies against toxic shock syndrome toxin No. 1 (TSST-1) in Poland
Zentralblatt für Bakteriologie, Mikrobiologie und Hygiene. Series A: Medical Microbiology, Infectious Diseases, Virology, Parasitology, 1989A total of 174 sera from healthy Polish individuals of different age groups were tested for TSST-1 antibody by the micro-ELISA method. Over 90% of sera contained the antibody with titres equal to above 1:10(2), even in children and adolescents. The data suggest that the majority of the Polish population acquires TSST-1-antibody during early childhood ...

Screening of staphylococci for the toxic shock syndrome toxin-1 (TSST-1) gene
Letters in Applied Microbiology, 1991Dot blot hybridization was used to screen 820 staphylococci for the presence of the gene coding for TSST-1. The DNA of 33 strains among 70 Staph. aureus strains isolated from suspected toxic shock syndrome (TSS) cases hybridized with the probe. These results agreed perfectly with those obtained with a phenotypic method (immunodiffusion).

Archives of Pediatrics & Adolescent Medicine, 1989
An 8-month-old infant presented with pneumonia and pleural effusion associated with clinical manifestation of toxic shock syndrome. A Staphylococcus aureus strain isolated from the pleural fluid produced enterotoxin C, but not toxic shock syndrome toxin-1 or other enterotoxins.

Clinical Infectious Diseases, 1989
Few risk factors for nonmenstrual toxic shock syndrome (TSS) have been identified. This study sought to determine at what rate and under what circumstances nongenital toxigenic Staphylococcus aureus infections led to TSS. Clinical isolates of S. aureus were examined for the production of TSS toxin 1 (TSST-1), and available sera from infected patients ...

Toxic shock syndrome toxin 1 (TSST-1), plays a significant role in the pathogenesis of TSS. TSST-1 production is subject to physiologic and environmental constraints. Thus, DNA probes that detect the chromosomal gene encoding the toxin are of value diagnostically, epidemiologically, and for studies of gene expression.

Toxicity of Staphylococcal Toxic Shock Syndrome Toxin 1 for Germ-Free and Conventional Piglets
Clinical Infectious Diseases, 1989The susceptibilities of conventional and germ-free miniature pigs to staphylococcal toxic shock syndrome toxin 1 (TSST-1) were studied and compared. TSST-1 at doses of 100 micrograms/kg evoked reactions similar to those observed in rabbits, i.e., hyperthermia, diarrhea, apathy, conjunctival hyperemia, and various changes indicating toxic damage of ...

Toxic shock syndrome (TSS) is a multisystem disease associated with S. aureus infection. Toxic shock syndrometoxin-1 (TSST-1) is implicated in the majority but not all cases. We have previously demonstrated that sero \conversion to staphylococcal enterotoxin A (SEA) is also more prevalent in TSS than in non-TSS cases, suggesting its possible role in ...

Tampons were tested for effect on growth and production of toxic shock syndrome toxin 1 by Staphylococcus aureus. Under good growth conditions, regular absorbency tampons had little effect on bacterial growth and inhibited toxin production two- to fourfold.

Effect of Trace Metals on the Synthesis of Toxic Shock Syndrome Toxin 1
Clinical Infectious Diseases, 1989The effect of 10 trace metals on the production of toxic shock syndrome toxin 1 (TSST-1) was studied in a metal-deficient chemically defined medium (CDM) with toxic shock syndrome (TSS) and non-TSS strains of Staphylococcus aureus. When individual metals were tested, only Mg++ stimulated cell growth and TSST-1 production. TSST-1 yield was responsive to
