Materials on the study of four outbreaks of alimentary toxinfections of staphylococcal etiology, carried out by the method of the identification of staphylococci by the spectra of their extracellular proteins, are presented. As the result of this study, the sources and transfer routes of infections have been established. The method of the identification of staphylococci by the exoprotein spectra has made it possible to find out the epidemiological chain with greater accuracy.

July 1987
The epidemiological and clinical features of alimentary toxinfections caused by halophilic vibrios on the Crimean coast of the Sea of Azov at the period of 1976-1984 were studied. Toxinfections were linked mainly with the use of sea-food subjected to different kinds of culinary treatment and took the course of gastroenteritis. To prevent toxinfections caused by halophilic vibrios, the technology, as well as sanitary and hygienic norms, should be strictly observed in the production of sea-food; besides, special methods of bacteriological diagnosis should be introduced into practice at laboratories of medical institutions and fish-processing plants.
