Tetanus toxoid is an inactivated form of the tetanus toxin produced by the bacterium Clostridium tetani. It is used in vaccines to stimulate the immune system to produce antibodies against the toxin, providing protection from tetanus, a potentially life-threatening disease characterized by muscle stiffness and spasms.
