    Summary

    Rat serum contains a heat-sensitive endotoxin inhibitor (LPSI) that neutralizes lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Tolerant rats exhibit significantly higher LPSI activity, which is not dependent on complement.

    Botulism

    Botulism is a life-threatening neuroparalytic condition caused by botulinum neurotoxin, which is produced by the bacterium Clostridium botulinum, a Gram-positive, spore-forming, obligate anaerobe.In adults, the toxin enters the body in different ways: in foodborne botulism, the preformed toxin is absorbed in the intestine. In wound botulism, spores grow in injured tissue and release the toxin into the blood. Infant botulism differs mechanistically from adult forms. In infants, botulism commonly...
