RESUMO
The production of staphylococcal enterotoxin A (SEA), SEB, SEC, SED, and SEE and toxic shock syndrome toxin 1 by bovine mammary isolates of Staphylococcus aureus was evaluated. Enterotoxin secretion was detected by immunodiffusion using specific polyclonal antisera. Of 262 isolates examined, 75 (28.6%) produced one or more toxins. The most common pattern was secretion of both SEC and SED and toxic shock syndrome toxin 1. No isolates secreted SEE, one produced SEA, and seven secreted SEB.
