Radioimmunoassay for type A toxin of Clostridium botulinum.
A preparation of pure type A toxin of Clostridium botulinum was labeled with (131)I in the presence of chloramine-T and carrier-free isotope. The radioactive toxin ((131)I Tox) was used in a radioimmunoassay procedure similar to that of Berson and Yalow. Dilutions of antibody to the toxin, capable of binding 50% of the added (131)I Tox, were mixed with a sample of the labeled toxin and various ...
متن کاملproduction and crystallization of clostridium botulinum type a toxin
introduction: widespread medical usage of botulinum toxins has increased the need for the precise analysis of its biological activity. the aim of this study was production and crystallization of the botulinum type a toxins. methods: in this study, clostridium botulinum was grown and inoculated into the tripticase soya broth culture media, under anaerobic condition and toxin production was monit...
متن کاملCharacterization of Clostridium botulinum spores and its toxin in honey
Botulism is a serious paralytic disease caused by Clostridium botulinum toxin in foods. There are seven recognized serotypes of botulinum neurotoxins among which the principal prevalent types in humans include A, B and E. Infant botulism results from intestinal colonization and toxin production by C. botulinum spores in babies less than 1 year old. Honey is the most important food discriminated...
متن کاملPhysicochemical Properties of Crystalline Clostridium Botulinum Type a Toxin*
Interest in the chemical nature and mode of action of bacterial toxins has been renewed by the simultaneously announced crystallization of botulinal (1) and tetanal toxins (2) and the recent purification of several toxoids (3-5). Of these, crystalline Clostridium botulinurn type A toxin alone has been submitted to an apparently complete elementary and amino acid analysis (6), as well as to prel...
