I'm so not feeling the whole let's read a couple of papers and write a sweet-ass blog post vibe this evening, so instead I've decided to compile a list of comprehensive, well written, and most importantly, free review articles covering different sorts of toxins (poisons produced by living things). Think of it as if I've expertly written a whole crapload of posts, while avoiding any attempts at wit

Botulinum Toxin is the world's deadliest poison and the most poisonous naturally occurring substances. It is a neurotoxin protein produced by the bacterium Clostridium botulinum. Though it is highly toxic, it is used in minute doses both to treat painful muscle spasms, and as a cosmetic treatment in some parts of the world. It is sold commercially under the brand names Botox, Dysport, and Myobloc for this purpose. The terms Botox, Dysport, and Myobloc are trade names and are not used generically to describe the neurotoxins produced by C. botulinum. Link
Overview Botox injections are the fastest growing cosmetic procedure and considered as the ultimate fountain of eternal youth. Though considered a dangerous neurotoxin, when injected in miniscule amounts, it can treat several medical conditions.

After reports of high dioxin levels in Italian buffalo mozzarella cheese, Japan has suspended imports. South Korea also halted imports.
Amid fears that some cheese had been made with milk contaminated with the carcinogenic chemical compound, the European Commission has asked Italy for urgent information and police are investigating whether feed given to herds near Naples was tainted.
The problem may be connected to the fact that the Naples area has become inundated with trash in the streets, as the garbage disposal system has ground to a halt. The Naples mafia, or Camorra, is heavily involved with waste disposal in the region.
New findings support the controversial ''hygiene hypothesis''Children whose homes contain high levels of endotoxin, a bacterial compound that collects in house dust, may be less likely to develop eczema during their first year of life, according to a study led by Dr. Wanda Phipatanakul, a pediatric allergist and immunologist at Children's Hospital Boston and assistant professor of Pediatrics at Harvard Medical School.The study corroborates other recent work that supports the ''hygiene hypothesis'' -- speculation that early exposure to infectious or inflammatory agents causes changes in babies' immune systems that reduce their risk of developing allergy-related conditions later in life.Various studies have looked at the relationship between endotoxin and allergies, but this is the first U.S

Scientists have long been interested in wrapping proteins around carbon nanotubes, and the process is used for various applications in imaging, biosensing, and cellular delivery. But this new study at Rensselaer is the first to remotely control the activity of these conjugated nanotubes. A team of Rensselaer researchers led by Ravi S. Kane, professor of chemical and biological engineering, has worked for nearly a year to develop a means to remotely deactivate protein-wrapped carbon nanotubes by exposing them to invisible and near-infrared light. The group demonstrated this method by successfully deactivating anthrax toxin and other proteins. "By attaching peptides to carbon nanotubes, we gave them the ability to selectively recognize a protein of interest -- in this case anthrax toxin -- from a mixture of different proteins," Kane said. "Then, by exposing the mixture to light, we could selectively deactivate this protein without disturbing the other proteins in the mixture." By conjug

Detoxification is a popular treatment offered by many spas. In fact, as more and more people begin to believe and appreciate in holistic living, the practice of detoxification or detox for short is gaining rapid popularity.
Detox is the process of ridding the body of toxins and other impurities. It is believed that there are much toxins and impurities in the food we eat and the air we breathe. Our body is not able to purge our body of all the toxins that we ingest everyday. As a result, too much toxins in the body can lead to tiredness, listlessness, general lethargy and pains in the body and joints.
In severe cases, buildup of toxins in our body in the long term can lead to liver and kidney problems as well as cancer and other major ailments. Hence, advocates of healthy living and holistic lifestyle actively advise that detoxification is built into part of a health living concept that we can put into daily living.
Detox treatment offered in spas are commonly mud or wrap treatments. It
Today's post is compliments of Toaster, who knows a whole lot about bacterial toxins. Check out his website, Mad Scientist, Jr.Background:Bad-ass hexameric molecule produced by some strains of your friendly neighborhood bacteria, most notably Shigella dysenteriae (named after Kiyoshi Shiga, who discovered them in 1898: "Hmm...I wonder what this bloody diarrhea looks like under my microscope?") and Escherichia coli.Structure:Once again, hexameric (although this a picture of SLT-1, which warrants a discussion on nomenclature)Nomenclature:This terminological mess once confused me, I hope this will make it clearer for you. True Shiga toxin is made by S. dysenteriae, although several strains of E. Coli (collectively termed STEC, which includes EHEC, the stuff that was on spinach recently) also make very closelyrelated toxins. Shiga-like toxin 1 is made by STECs and differs from S. dysenteriae by only 1 amino acid, while Shiga-like toxin 2, also made by STECs, has ~60% sequence homology w
BOTOX and Scar TreatmentMayo Clinic researchers have found that treating a facial wound in the early healing phase with botulinum toxin (BOTOX) improves the appearance of a scar later. The findings are published in the August issue of Mayo Clinic Proceedings."Our findings show that botulinum toxin offers an additional tool in preventing the formation of bad scars," says Holger Gassner, M.D., lead study researcher and former Mayo Clinic ear, nose and throat surgical resident who is now a fellow in Facial Plastic Surgery at the University of Washington in Seattle. "It will give us the option to optimize healing of forehead wounds in the first place and possibly allow us to avoid later surgeries to improve the scar's appearance."Adds David Sherris, M.D., study investigator and former Mayo Clinic ear, nose and throat specialist who is now professor and chair of Otolaryngology at the University of New York at Buffalo, "This is the first medication found to minimize scarring. This is of sub
There are 2 mechanisms used by liver to release toxin / poison. Part of first at detox, referred as by phase 1, is altering toxin become fat dissolve form. Naturally the fat will immediately fasten toxin which come into body. In consequence, toxin has to be discharged first from fat network.
Part of second, referred as [phase 2, altering toxin become dissolve form irrigate in order to the toxin can be released through channel of intestine and urine. With this mechanism, there will be no toxin / poison will be got stuck or left behind at network, inclusive of network of brain and central nerve. Toxin will be released slowly through blood stream. At this time, generally the symptom felt like disease, namely symptom of healing crisis that emerge.
In each phase which must be passed by, execution of this detox better be assisted with certain and herbal food to strengthen cell of vital organ and the gland which sharing detox process.
That's right. I've been working away at this little beauty, and it's time to share. It's still in early development, but hopefully it will soon grow into something that will make it worthy of it's namesake. Want to contribute? drugsandpoisons [at] gmail [dot] comCheck it out.
