Description:

Described are a series of nineteen outbreaks of gastroenteritis occurring during a one-month period among school children. Epidemiologic study and a human volunteer experiment implicated spray-dried milk solids. Though bacteriologic and toxicologic tests were negative, clinical and epidemiologic evidence indicated that staphylococcal enterotoxin was the probable agent.
