The researchers modified the Aap protein to display a harmless piece of tetanus toxin. They wanted to see if this modification would trigger an immune response and the production of antibodies ...
A fever higher than 100.4 F following an injection warrants immediate medical care. Fevers this high may be due to an infection caused by needle contamination. Fever with chills is especially ...
In a vegetative state, C. tetani is anaerobic, which means it lives in the absence of oxygen. At this stage, it produces toxins that cause tetanus infections. In a vegetative state, C. tetani is heat ...
In even better news, it seems that this mechanism can be applied to a wide range of pathogens. In another test, they swapped the tetanus toxin for diphtheria, and found it also generated a ...
"Djenet did some clever engineering," Fischbach said. "She substituted the gene encoding a piece of tetanus toxin for the gene fragment encoding a component that normally gets displayed in this giant ...
