Article Synopsis
- Botulinum neurotoxins (BoNTs) from bacteria can cause lethal botulism in humans and animals, mainly through contaminated food consumption.
- Ensuring food safety is vital to prevent botulism, but there are few established guidelines for testing food products against these toxins.
- The study analyzed a mix of ten strains of BoNT-producing bacteria, finding that while some strains compete for growth, the combination still produced high levels of BoNTs.
