Clostridium botulinum neurotoxin* - antibodies
LABOKLIN Service ID: 1424
Botulism is regarded as pure intoxication, in which only the toxin is absorbed, reabsorbed via the intestine and spread haematogenously. If, in exceptional cases, botulism progresses as a toxin infection, the toxins are formed in the intestine (visceral botulism) or in wounds (wound botulism). The absorption of botulinum toxin leads to paralysis of the motor nerves.
