Characterisation of a putative agr system in Clostridium botulinum and Clostridium sporogenes

Botulinum neurotoxin induces a potentially fatal paralytic condition in humans and various animal species collectively known as 'botulism'. It consequently poses a major problem to the food industry, due to the ability of its spores to survive in cooked foods. The incidence of wound botuli...
