The Fixation of Tetanus Toxin by Ganglioside [PDF]

Journal of General Microbiology, 1961
SUMMARY: The fixation of tetanus toxin by brain ganglioside has been confirmed. A method has been developed for assaying the toxin-fixing capacity of ganglioside in the analytical ultracentrifuge. Under appropriate conditions ganglioside will fix many times its own weight of toxin. Ganglioside preparations from brain contain at least three gangliosides;

Antibody kinetics against tetanus toxoid before and after primary vaccination of foals

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Vaccination recommendations for foals against Clostridium tetani vary. Available studies assessing foal immune responses, maternal antibody interference, or individual variation often used small foal numbers. Objectives To quantify antibody responses after tetanus vaccination in foals and explore associations with passively ...

The tetanus toxin light chain inhibits exocytosis [PDF]

, 1989
Tetanus toxin is one of the most poisonous substances known. It is first produced by Clostridium tetani as a single-chain protein [1,2]. Subsequent proteolytic processing leads to a pharmacologically more active [3], two-chain form consisting of ...

Tetanus initially diagnosed as cervical spinal cord injury due to jaw contusion

Journal of Hospital General Medicine, 2023
Tetanus is a disease caused by a toxin produced by Clostridium tetani that presents with muscular spasm and autonomic nervous system disturbance. Thanks to the initiation of regular vaccination since 1968, tetanus has become rare in Japan.

Botulinum toxin A for trismus in cephalic tetanus

Arquivos de Neuro-Psiquiatria, 1994
Cephalic tetanus is a localized form of tetanus. As in generalized forms , trismus is a prominent feature of the disease, leading to considerable difficulty in feeding, swallowing of the saliva and mouth hygiene.

Determination of low tetanus or diphtheria antitoxin titers in sera by a toxin neutralization assay and a modified toxin-binding inhibition test

Brazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2007
A method for the screening of tetanus and diphtheria antibodies in serum using anatoxin (inactivated toxin) instead of toxin was developed as an alternative to the in vivo toxin neutralization assay based on the toxin-binding inhibition test (TOBI test).

The Action of Tetanus Toxin in Frogs [PDF]

Journal of General Microbiology, 1961
SUMMARY: The development of tetanus intoxication in the frog is dependent on the environmental temperature being above about 15". The incubation period and time to death become shorter as the environmental temperature is raised. Cooling below about 15° prevents both the fixation of the toxin and its action after fixation but does not increase the speed
