Is staphylococcal toxic syndrome due to preformed toxin?
No.
What is preformed enterotoxin?
enterotoxins are toxins that target the intestines (entron). preformed enterotoxins (ex. cholera toxin) are formed in the bacteria prior to infection, ie. the toxin is being produced regardless of being in the human body or not.
Which neuromuscular disorder is caused by a bacterial toxin?
Botulism is a neuromuscular disorder caused by a bacterial toxin produced by Clostridium botulinum. This toxin can affect the nervous system and cause muscle weakness or paralysis.
A bacteriophage is necessary for toxin production in?
A bacteriophage is necessary for toxin production in certain types of bacteria. This occurs when the bacteriophage infects the bacterial cell and inserts its genetic material, which can include genes encoding toxins. The bacterial cell then produces the toxin as part of the infection process.
What is an anatoxin?
An anatoxin is a bacterial toxin whose toxicity has been weakened or suppressed.
Are there toxic proteins in vegetables?
Some proteins can indeed be toxic. However, note that it is rare for a protein to be toxic.Yes pathogens produce and secrete toxic proteins to invade their host. Bacterial toxin such as hemolysin A, neurotoxin, botulinum toxin, tetanus toxin, Shiga toxin are all proteins. They are strongly antigenic can elicit immune response.
What is preform?
enterotoxins are toxins that target the intestines (entron). preformed enterotoxins (ex. cholera toxin) are formed in the bacteria prior to infection, ie. the toxin is being produced regardless of being in the human body or not.
When bacteria produce a disease by making a chemical that is released from the bacterial cell the chemical is known as what?
toxin
What is the medical term meaning poison produced by an organism?
The medical term for poison produced by an organism is "toxin."
The development of virulent toxin producing bacterial strains due to the presence of a temperate phage can occur in?
specialized transduction
What is a toxin?
A toxin is a substance that is harmful to living organisms, often causing damage or death when it enters the body in sufficient quantities. Toxins can be produced by plants, animals, bacteria, or fungi, and they can impact various biological processes in the body.
How does bacterial diseases affect the body?
through the production of toxin, by an allergic reaction of the body to the bacteria and/or by destruction of normal tissues.
