A food-poisoning outbreak caused by Bacillus cereus occurred in a Finnish industrial plant in January 1975. Eighteen of the 36 persons who ate a lunch including boiled rice, meat and vegetables became ill. The disease pattern was similar to previously reported short incubation time B. cereus food-poisonings associated with cooked rice. The median incubation time was two hours, the main symptoms being nausea, abdominal pain and vomiting. Rice and certain seasonings were the contaminated raw materials. Gas chromatographic fatty acid analysis of a bacterial cell was used as a diagnostic method as well as to identify a certain strain of B. cereus.
1975年1月，芬兰一家工厂发生了一起由蜡样芽孢杆菌引起的食物中毒事件。36名食用了包括米饭、肉类和蔬菜的午餐的人员中，有18人患病。疾病模式与先前报道的与米饭相关的蜡样芽孢杆菌食物中毒的短潜伏期模式相似。中位潜伏期为两小时，主要症状为恶心、腹痛和呕吐。米饭和某些调味料是受污染的原材料。对细菌细胞进行气相色谱脂肪酸分析被用作诊断方法以及鉴定某种蜡样芽孢杆菌菌株。
