Gerwing, Julia (The University of British Columbia, Vancouver, B.C., Canada), Claude E. Dolman, and Hardial S. Bains. Isolation and characterization of a toxic moiety of low molecular weight from Clostridium botulinum type A. J. Bacteriol. 89:1383-1386. 1965.-A toxic moiety of low molecular weight has been isolated from a type A strain of Clostridium botulinum, by a method involving ammonium sulfate precipitation and elution through diethylaminoethyl cellulose at pH 5.6. By means of electrophoresis and ultracentrifugation, the toxic substance was shown to be homogeneous; a molecular weight of 12,200 was calculated.
