Production of Clostridium difficile antitoxin
Infect Immun.
1980 Jun.
Abstract
We have produced antitoxin to the toxin of Clostridium difficile in rabbits and in goats. Antitoxin dilutions of 1/8,000 and 1/5,120 were capable of neutralizing lethal doses of the toxin in mice and in tissue culture, respectively.
