Foodborne Botulism: Clinical Diagnosis and Medical Treatment
Toxins, 2020 Botulinum neurotoxins (BoNTs) produced by Clostridia species are the most potent identified natural toxins. Classically, the toxic neurological syndrome is characterized by an (afebrile) acute symmetric descending flaccid paralysis. The most know typical

Wearable Temperature Sensor Enhanced Volatilomics Technique for Swift and Convenient Detection of Latrogenic Botulism. [PDF]
Adv Sci (Weinh)A wearable temperature sensor enhanced volatilomics technique is developed to facilitate the rapid and convenient prediction of potential physical discomfort following botulinum neurotoxin (BoNT) injection. Through simultaneously monitoring the variation of body temperature and breath signals, this innovative strategy achieves an accuracy exceeding 91 ...

Toxins, 2020 Clostridium botulinum Group I and Clostridium sporogenes are closely related bacteria responsible for foodborne, infant and wound botulism. A comparative genomic study with 556 highly diverse strains of C. botulinum Group I and C.

Experimental Biology and Medicine, 1916 Much that has been written about botulism is not true and truths have been so distorted as to convey false impressions. This paper presents truths plainly and without bias. Two things are important—canned foods that show any signs of spoilage must be destroyed, so that neither animals nor man can eat them, and boiling “ready to serve” canned foods ...

Adult Intestinal Toxemia Botulism
Toxins, 2020 Intoxication with botulinum neurotoxin can occur through various routes. Foodborne botulism results after consumption of food in which botulinum neurotoxin-producing clostridia (i.e., Clostridium botulinum or strains of Clostridium butyricum type E or ...

Toxins, 2020 The neurotoxin formed by Clostridium botulinum Group II is a major cause of foodborne botulism, a deadly intoxication. This study aims to understand the genetic diversity and spread of C. botulinum Group II strains and their neurotoxin genes.

Toxemia in Human Naturally Acquired Botulism
Toxins, 2020 Human botulism is a severe disease characterized by flaccid paralysis and inhibition of certain gland secretions, notably salivary secretions, caused by inhibition of neurotransmitter release.

Human Botulism in France, 1875–2016
Toxins, 2020 Botulism is a rare but severe disease which is characterized by paralysis and inhibition of secretions. Only a few cases had been reported at the end of the 19th century in France.

Bird-Area Water-Bodies Dataset (BAWD) and Predictive AI Model for Avian Botulism Outbreak (AVI-BoT) [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 Avian botulism is a paralytic bacterial disease in birds often leading to high fatality. In-vitro diagnostic techniques such as Mouse Bioassay, ELISA, PCR are usually non-preventive, post-mortem in nature, and require invasive sample collection from affected sites or dead birds.
