Occurrence and Characterization of Enterotoxigenic Staphylococci Isolated from Soft Cheeses in Serbia
A total of 415 cheese samples produced with raw or cooked milk collected from local markets were analysed for the presence of coagulase-positive staphylococci. In 85 (20.48%) samples the presence of coagulase positive staphylococci was detected. The ELFA technique VIDAS SET2 (BioMerieux, France) was...
