Abstract
Some strains of Vibrio parahaemolyticus, Vibrio cholerae, and non-O1 V cholerae produce a bacterial-cell-associated, heat-stable material that is cytotoxic for hela cells. Cytotoxicity is completely neutralised by antibody to purified Shigella dysenteriae 1 (Shiga) toxin but not by antibody to purified cholera toxin.
