Abstract One hundred and twelve dried fish samples collected from markets in and around Cochin city were examined for coagulase positive Staphylococci employing Baird Parker agar medium. Twenty six samples (23.2%) revealed coagulase positive Staphylococci which were then tested for enterotoxigenicity employing cello-plane-over-agar method followed by optimum sensitivity plate (OSP) method. Twenty three out of twenty six (88.46%) coagulase positive isolates produced enterotoxin A, B, C, D and E either singly or in combination. Enterotoxin A was detected more often than others.
