Production and purification of Clostridium perfringens type C beta-toxin and IgG and IgY antitoxins

CONCLUSIONS: C. perfringens type C beta-toxin and sheep or chicken anti-beta toxin IgG and IgY antibodies were successfully produced and purified using a simple protocol. This protocol can be used for the production of components used in the diagnosis and research of necrotic enteritis caused by C. perfringens type C, as well as for the evaluation of existing vaccines and the development of new preventive methods against this disease.PMID:38163631 | DOI:10.1016/j.anaerobe.2023.102817
