BIOLOGICAL ASSAY OF THE TOXIN FROM SHELLFISH
Canadian Journal of Biochemistry and Physiology, 1955A conventional quantal response assay procedure was employed to determine the LD50 of shellfish extracts. The slope of the log dose – response line obtained with butter clam extracts was not significantly different from that found with scallop liver extracts.

Biological Toxins: Safety and Science
2014Biological toxins may be classified according to the microorganisms from which the toxin is derived: bacterial, fungal, algal, plant, or animal. Toxins may also be classified according to their mode of action. With an increase in the use of biological toxins in biomedical research, there is a growing need for information on working safely with these ...

Chemistry and Biological Activity of AAL Toxins
1996AAL toxins and fumonisins comprise a family of highly reactive, chemically related mycotoxins that disrupt cellular homeostasis in both plant and animal tissues. Two critical issues to resolve are the detection of the entire family in food matricies and the mode of cellular disruption.

Therapy and prophylaxis of inhaled biological toxins
Journal of Applied Toxicology, 2003AbstractThis review highlights the current lack of therapeutic and prophylactic treatments for use against inhaled biological toxins, especially those considered as potential biological warfare (BW) or terrorist threats. Although vaccine development remains a priority, the use of rapidly deployable adjunctive therapeutic or prophylactic drugs could be ...

[Biological significance of animal toxins].
Die Naturwissenschaften, 1975Animal toxins are not to be understood as substances of random occurrence; they are of great importance in ecology. The venom-secreting organs have developed in a wide variety of ways and serve either as an offensive weapon or for protection against enemies. Accordingly, we may distinguish between actively venemous and passively venemous animals. There

[Shiga toxin and tetanus toxin as a potential biologic weapon].
Polski merkuriusz lekarski : organ Polskiego Towarzystwa Lekarskiego, 2015Toxins produced by the bacteria are of particular interest as potential cargo combat possible for use in a terrorist attack or war. Shiga toxin is usually produced by shiga toxigenic strains of Escherichia coli (STEC - shigatoxigenic Escherichia coli). To infection occurs mostly after eating contaminated beef.
