The botulism toxin is synthesized during which stage of the Clostridium botulinum life cycle? a. Stationary phase b. Sporulation c. Vegetative growth d. Germination e. All of the aboveExplanation / Answer
Answer is (B) sporulation phase
Physiology of Different stages
Stationary phase---> regulation of toxin synthesis by gene expression.
Sporulation phase--> high ammount of toxin production
Vegetative phase----> vegetation of spores,small ammount of toxin production
Germination phase---> performance of enzymes by which dormant spores convert into active cell.
