Answer:
Clostridium botulinum is a bacterium that produces dangerous toxins (botulinum toxins) under low-oxygen conditions.
Botulinum toxins are one of the most lethal substances known.
Botulinum toxins block nerve functions and can lead to respiratory and muscular paralysis.
Human botulism may refer to foodborne botulism, infant botulism, wound botulism, and inhalation botulism or other types of intoxication.
Foodborne botulism, caused by consumption of improperly processed food, is a rare but potentially fatal disease if not diagnosed rapidly and treated with antitoxin.
Homemade canned, preserved or fermented foodstuffs are a common source of foodborne botulism and their preparation requires extra caution.
