v. mimicus strains were divided into the following three groups on the basis of their activity in various toxin assays : ( i ) organisms which produce a heat-labile enterotoxin immunobiologically similar to cholera toxin , ( ii ) organisms which produce a heat-stable enterotoxin-like toxin , and ( iii ) organisms whose whole-cell cultures have some activity characteristic of heat-labile toxin ( e.g. , fluid accumulation in ligated rabbit ileal loops and positive permeability factor ) but are not positive by the gm1 enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay .
