[A simple method for the detection of staphylococcal enterotoxin type B in vanilla custard using the ELISA (author's transl)]. 1981

H Büning-Pfaue, and P Timmermans, and S Notermans

The ELISA for the detection of staphylococcal enterotoxin type B (SEB) was employed to demonstrate SEB in Dutch Vanilla custard. Due to the sensitivity of the ELISA the extraction procedure, which is necessary when the Ouchterlony test is used, can be abbreviated to a great extent. Two successive extractions at pH 7.4 and pH 4.5 followed by a concentration (1:20) was sufficient to detect 0.1 mcg SEB in 100 g custard.

D004768	Enterotoxins	Substances that are toxic to the intestinal tract causing vomiting, diarrhea, etc.; most common enterotoxins are produced by bacteria.	Staphylococcal Enterotoxin,Enterotoxin,Staphylococcal Enterotoxins,Enterotoxin, Staphylococcal,Enterotoxins, Staphylococcal
D004797	Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay	An immunoassay utilizing an antibody labeled with an enzyme marker such as horseradish peroxidase. While either the enzyme or the antibody is bound to an immunosorbent substrate, they both retain their biologic activity; the change in enzyme activity as a result of the enzyme-antibody-antigen reaction is proportional to the concentration of the antigen and can be measured spectrophotometrically or with the naked eye. Many variations of the method have been developed.
