Poisons produced by pathogenic bacteria are called bacterial toxins, endotoxins, or exotoxins.
In the context of biology, poisons are defined as substances that cause disturbances to organisms, usually by chemical reaction or other activity on the molecular scale, when a sufficient quantity is absorbed by an organism. The fields of medicine (particularly veterinary) and zoology often distinguish a poison from a toxin, and from a venom. Toxins are poisons produced via some biological function in nature, and venom are usually defined as toxins that are injected by a bite or sting to cause their effect, while other poisons are generally defined as substances absorbed through epithelial linings such as the skin or gut.

A toxin-mediated infection is caused when a living organism is consumed with food (as in the case of an infection). Once the organism is inside the human body, it produces a toxin that causes the illness. Toxin-mediated infection is different from an intoxication because the toxin is produced inside the human body. An example of an organism that causes this type of illness is Clostridium perfringens.
