How do the white blood cells try to protect you from getting the tetanus bacteria?
Neutrophils are active in phagocytizing (eating) bacteria and are present in large amount in the pus of wounds. But this bacteria makes a toxin which really causes the disease. The toxin is produced during cell growth, sporulation and lysis (break down). The white cells actually help to increase the toxin formation by eating them (lysis).Tetanus toxin is one of the three most poisonous substances known, the other two being the toxins of botulism and diphtheria. The vaccine is the most important form of prevention.
