The Botulinum toxin, also cosmetically referred to as Botox, is a biotoxin that works by paralyzing muscles in the body (there are many variations of this Toxin, Type A or B, for example). When injected in small amounts, by professionals, in strategically chosen areas of the body (such as the forehead), it paralyzes the surface muscles. This creates an appearance of smoothness/reduced wrinkles. This same toxin, which can be found in undercooked seafood such as clams, can easily kill you if ingested (the toxin paralyzes esophageal and respiratory muscles, causing difficulty in breathing and very often death). A small amount of toxin can kill a person - Botulinum toxin produced by Clostridium botulinum is unfortunately considered a potential bioweapon, as it is so potent it takes about 75 nanograms to kill a person. Poisoning someone with Botulinum toxin is against the law and falls under the charge of murder.

The botulinum toxin from the bacterium Clostridium botulinum. An amount of the purified toxin the size of a grain of salt can kill 60 people. It is a neurotoxin.
