More than 1,000 students have been affected since November. They have suffered respiratory problems, nausea, dizziness and fatigue.
Many Iranians suspect the poisonings are a deliberate attempt to force girls' schools to close.
But the government has not said whether it believes they are premeditated.
Interior Minister Ahmad Vahidi, who has been tasked by the president with finding the "root cause" of the poisonings, on Wednesday dismissed as "false" a report by Fars news agency that three people had been arrested.
He also accused foreign-based and "mercenary groups" of taking advantage of the situation to wage psychological war and worry people.
Some pupils and parents suggested that schoolgirls may have been targeted for taking part in recent anti-government protests.

"In each of the incidents, girls have reported smelling rotten fruit, mint or rotten eggs before the symptoms set in. Some students had to stay in the hospital for extended care and were ill still sick weeks after the incidents.

A mother from Borujerd told Hammihan, a local media outlet, that her daughter is now dependent on machines to breathe. “The girl’s blood oxygen levels drop to dangerous levels when the machine is disconnected,” she said.

A doctor who spoke to the Guardian said that the students may have been poisoned with a “weak, organophosphate agent”, which can be used in agricultural pesticides.

So far, only one death has been reported: Fatemeh Rezaei, an 11-year-old girl, died in Qom on February 26. According to Iranian activists, she died after being poisoned at school, but authorities deny these reports.

The attacks have sparked fear and desperation in parents and schoolchildren alike, with many parents keeping their children home from school. A teacher in Qom told Radio Farda that only 50 out of the 250 students have been attending classes since the poisonings spiraled.

Activists in contact with families whose children were victim of the poisonings told the FRANCE 24 Observers team that parents have been pressured by security forces not to talk about these incidents, either on social media or with the mainstream media.

Many Iranians speculate that the wave of poisonings are directly linked to the largest protest movement in the history of the Islamic Republic, over the death of 22-year-old Mahsa Amini in custody of the morality police. A number of young girls and women joined the protests across Iran, removing their headscarves and chanting slogans against the regime."
