Clostridium BotulinumTypes A and B Toxin-Antitoxin Reactions [PDF]
SummaryC. botulinumtypes A and B toxins required larger amounts of antitoxin for neutralization when fractions of the test dose of toxin were used than would be expected.The degree of this dilution effect, i.e. the dilution ratio, varied with different sera.

Toxigenic and non-toxigenic strains of Clostridium botulinum type E : A. Differentiation by immunodiffusion : B. Attempts to induce toxigenicity by mutagenic agents [PDF]
In this study of toxigenic and non-toxigenic strains of Clostridium botulinum type E, attempts were made to induce toxin production in non-toxigenic cultures by exposure to mutagenic agents and to differentiate the organisms by immunodiffusion.

The comparative genomic analysis provides information about how C. tertium HGMC01 strain cause disease through mucin glycan degradation, colonization, multidrug resistance, and modulation of immune responses. Moreover, this analysis data suggest that this strain interacts with host cells by degrading mucin in the gut, potentially through recognition or

In-Vivo and In-Vitro Studies of the Effect of Specific Antitoxin on the Phagocytosis of Cells of Clostridium Botulinum Type A [PDF]
Summary The conversion of heat-resistant spores of Clostridium botulinum type A into germinated heat-sensitive cells in the peritoneal cavity of mice has been observed. This in-vivo germination of spores was depressed in mice passively immunised with type-A botulinal antitoxin.

Metabolic Origin, Role and Fate of the Denaturant Guanidine
The origin of metabolic guanidine is largely a mystery. We suggest it is created when guanine‐containing nucleotides are oxidised by molecular oxygen instead of being broken down into urea as purines normally would. Guanidine may act as a signal to help cells control the level of reactive oxygen species.

A severe case of iatrogenic botulism associated with COVID-19 infection
Background: The botulinum toxin is an extremely potent substance that impacts the nervous system. There has been a rise in cases of medical poisoning associated with it, particularly in the field of plastic and aesthetic procedures, in recent years. Case
