Environmental Microbiology, Volume 27, Issue 2, February 2025.The ecology of botulinum neurotoxin‐producing Clostridia bacteria and their non‐toxinogenic phylogenetic counterparts remains unclear. This study explored the current literature, mine > 5000 SRA samples, and provide a pilot feeding experiment in a butterfly, to propose evidence of the interconnection between Clostridia and insects.

Aptamer and DNAzyme Based Colorimetric Biosensors for Pathogen Detection
Angewandte Chemie, Volume 137, Issue 4, January 21, 2025.Pathogen detection is crucial for preventing and managing health risks. This review consolidates the selection of functional nucleic acids (FNAs) for pathogen detection and the development of cost‐effective, simple diagnostic applications. It focuses on integrating FNAs with gold nanoparticles, polydiacetylenes, protein enzymes, G‐quadruplexes, and ...

Botulism in the Highlands: Understanding the High-Altitude Effect
Journal of Epidemiology and Global HealthBotulism is a foodborne, life-threatening neuroparalytic disease caused by Clostridium botulinum, an anaerobic, gram-positive, spore-forming bacteria. Its incidence is unknown and underestimated due to missed diagnoses, especially in remote areas.

Difficulties in Diagnosing Food-Borne Botulism
Case Reports in Neurology, 2012 Botulism is a muscle-paralyzing disease caused by neurotoxins (types A–G) produced by the bacteria Clostridium botulinum. Symptoms of food-borne botulism most commonly appear 12–36 h after eating contaminated food, but the earliest neurological symptoms ...
