  1. Investigation and Identification of Food Poisoning Caused by Clostridium botulinum Type B1 in Shenzhen, China

    • Foodborne Pathogens and Disease

    • Clostridium botulinum produces botulinum neurotoxins (BoNTs), which cause people who ingest them to become seriously ill and sometimes die.
