From Bacterial Poisons to Toxins: The Early Works of Pasteurians
We review some of the precursor works of the Pasteurians in the field of bacterial toxins. The word “toxin” was coined in 1888 by Ludwig Brieger to qualify different types of poison released by bacteria.

Tetanus toxin receptor Specific cross-linking of tetanus toxin to a protein of NGF-differentiated PC 12 cells [PDF]
A subclone of rat pheochromocytoma cells expresses high affinity receptors for tetanus toxin on differentiation with NGF [Walton, K.M., Sandberg, K., Rogers, T.B. and Schnaar, R.L. (1988) J. Biol. Chem. 263, 2055–2063].

Immunogenicity test of tetanus component in adsorbed vaccines by toxin binding inhibition test
Samples from 20 lots of diphtheria-tetanus (adult use dT) vaccine and from 20 lots of diphtheria-tetanus-pertussis (DTP) vaccine were used to standardize and validate the in vitro toxin binding inhibition (ToBI) test for the immunogenicity test of the ...

Clean birth and postnatal care practices to reduce neonatal deaths from sepsis and tetanus: a systematic review and Delphi estimation of mortality effect. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Annually over 520,000 newborns die from neonatal sepsis, and 60,000 more from tetanus. Estimates of the effect of clean birth and postnatal care practices are required for evidence-based program planning. OBJECTIVE: To review the evidence for

The monoclonal antibody 26 raised against tetanus toxoid also recognizes tetanus toxin and b2-glycoprotein I – its binding properties in vitro and potential applications [PDF]
A murine monoclonal IgG1 antibody, marked as MAb26, specific for tetanus toxoid has been immunochemically characterized. By performing enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISAs) and western blot analyses, it was demonstrated that MAb26 reacted with ...

Phase I Evaluation of Siltartoxatug, a First‐in‐Class Anti‐Tetanus Monoclonal Antibody: Safety, Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics in Healthy Australian and Chinese Populations [PDF]
Siltartoxatug, a first‐in‐class monoclonal antibody targeting tetanus toxin for post‐exposure prophylaxis, was evaluated in two phase I trials in Australian and Chinese healthy adults. In these randomized, double‐blind, placebo‐controlled, dose‐escalation studies, participants received a single intramuscular injection of siltartoxatug (10–250 μg/kg) or
