Cytotoxins were revealed in 11 out of 58 samples from children with diarrhoea, nine of whom had no common enteric pathogens in their stools. A preliminary characterisation of the cytotoxins was obtained by neutralisation tests with clostridial antitoxins., UL https://www.microbiologyresearch.org/content/journal/jmm/10.1099/00222615-22-1-29
