Botulism
Research reports from P. Fach and co-authors provide new insights into botulism
August 3rd, 2009
Researchers detail in 'Development of real-time PCR tests for detecting botulinum neurotoxins A, B, E, F producing Clostridium botulinum, Clostridium baratii and Clostridium butyricum,' new data in botulism. In this recently published study, investigators in Maisons-Alfort, France conducted a study "To develop real-time PCR assays for tracking and tracing clostridia responsible for human botulism. Real-time PCR assays based on the detection of the genes ntnh encoding the nontoxin-nonhaemagglutinin (NTNH) proteins or the most homologous regions of the botulinum neurotoxin (bont) genes have been developed together with four real-time PCR assays, each being specific of the genes bont/A,...
