Abstract
Staphylococcus intermedius was identified as the cause of an outbreak of acute adenitis of the cervical apocrine glands of neonatal mink, and the cause of vaginitis and mastitis in adults. The disease occurred with greater frequency in mutation mink with Chediak-Higashi syndrome than in pastel and dark color phases.
