The near-ultraviolet CD spectra from 260 to 300 nm of staphylococcal enterotoxins A, B and C were resolved empirically into Gaussian curves. Each spectrum contained the same six components with maximum ellipticities at virtually identical wavelengths

Multiple components in two antigenic variants of staphylococcal exfoliative toxin were demonstrated by isoelectric focusing in polyacrylamide gel. The main components had an isoionic point of pH=7.0 while other components ranged from pI=4.5 to pI=8.5

Staphylococcal entertoxin C1 is converted to a doubly cleaved molecule by trypsin digestion with one of the scissions internal to the disulfide loop and one external to it. The larger, disulfide-containing polypeptide (Mr = 22,000) exhibited excellen

The strong cross-reactions demonstrated for staphylococcal enterotoxins B (SEB) and C1 (SEC1) by measurement of antigen-binding capacity were reflected in well defined polypeptides obtained by limited tryptic digestion from SEB and SEC1. Two antigeni

Exfoliative toxin was isolated from strain DI of Staphylococcus aureus using carboxymethyl cellulose and hydroxylapatite chromatography. This purified toxin was compared with that produced by strain TA. The specific biological activity of the two tox

Four components have been demonstrated in staphylococcal enterotoxin B by isoelectric focusing in polyacrylamide gels. In a typical preparation their relative concentrations from the most to least cathodic were 6, 56, 31 and 7%. The components were n

Strong cross-reactions were demonstrated for staphylococcal enterotoxins B (SEB) and C1 (SEC1) by antigenbinding capacity and by competitive binding ability. Both SEB and SEC1 combined completely with the heterologous antibody although requiring four

Exfoliative toxin from Staphylococcus aureus was mitogenic for murine spleen cells. It was primarily active on T lymphocytes but also significantly stimulated B cells from the spleens of nude mice. The mitogenicity was not affected by simple sugar or

Staphylococcus aureus enterotoxins C1 (SEC1) and C2 (SEC2) produced from 50-liter quantities of crude culture supernatants were purified chromatographically in a neutral or acid milieu. Microheterogenity of SEC1 was markedly increased by treatment of

In contrast to early observations on crude solutions of toxin, the purified toxin from Cl. botulinum, type A, was found to be quite stable at moderate alkalinity. The rate of inactivation increased by a factor of 4 × 104 over one pH unit above pH 10
