Determination of exotoxin in Bacillus thuringiensis cells
Abstract
The presence of exotoxin in Bacillus thuringiensis was demonstrated and its quantity in the cells determined. The concentration of exotoxin in the producing microorganism is approximately half the concentration of ATP. Exotoxin is produced at such a rate that the cell excretes 1/5 to 1/4 of its exotoxin content into the medium per minute.
