Food-borne Zoonoses and Bacterial Toxins
Explore the world of food-borne diseases, bacterial toxins, and infections with insights on viral and parasitic infections, bacterial endotoxins, and common pathogens causing food-borne illness. Learn about food infection, food intoxication, and toxi-infection along with characteristics of bacterial endotoxins and classic exotoxins. Dive into the details of invasive infections, toxicoinfections, and intoxication caused by pathogens like Salmonella, Bacillus cereus, and more.

BACTERIAL TOXIN ENDOTOXIN EXOTOXIN
CHARACTERISTICS OF BACTERIAL ENDOTOXINS AND CLASSIC EXOTOXIN PROPERTY ENDOTOXIN EXOTOXIN CHEMICAL NATURE LPS (mw = 10kDa) Protein (mw = 50-1000kDa) RELATIONSHIP TO CELL HEAT STABILITY ANTIGENIC Part of outer membrane Yes (600 C) Yes Extracellular, Diffusible Relatively No Yes FORM TOXOID No Yes POTENCY Relatively low (100ug) Relatively high (1 ug) SPECIFICITY Low degree High degree ENZYMATIC ACTIVITY No Often PYROGENICITY Yes Occasionally SYNTHESIS CONTROL Chromosomal gene Extrachromosomal gene
Food infection. The ingestion of viable pathogenic bacteria alongwith the food leads to their lodgement and establishment in consumers organ. This is called as Foodinfection . Food intoxication. Ingestion of toxins already produced by microorganisms in the food brings about poisoning syndromes in the consumers. This is called as Foodintoxication . Toxi-infection. A certain group of organisms which can infect intestines when ingested alongwith the food and produce toxins in situ to bring about symptoms of poisoning. This condition is called as toxi- infection . 4/9/2025 Unit 1 Lecture 12 6
Invasive Infection Toxicoinfection Intoxication o Salmonella o Bacillus cereus (Diarrhoel) o L. monocytogenes o E. coli ( enteric type) o Staph. Aureus o Cl.botulinum ( Infant) o Cl . perfringens o B.Cereus (Emetic type) o Shigella o Campylobacter o Cl. botulinum o Vibrio cholarae o Yersinia o E. Coli (Enterotoxigenic) o Vibrio parahaemolyticus o Aeromonas 4/9/2025 Unit 1 Lecture 12 7
