[92] [65] Ammonia reduces stomach acidity, allowing the bacteria to become locally established. Arginase promotes the persistence of infection by consuming arginine; arginine is used by macrophages to produce nitric oxide, which has a strong antimicrobial effect. [91] [93] The ammonia produced to regulate pH is toxic to epithelial cells. [94]
The T-2 toxin was an outbreak and made humans develop symptoms like food poisoning, chills, nausea, dizziness, etc. [38] The trichothecenes mycotoxin affects animals by decreasing plasma glucose, red blood cell and leukocyte counts. [38] Pathological changes in the liver and stomach, as well as weight loss has been accounted for. [38]
The BRAT diet (bananas, rice, applesauce and toast) can work well.Try a little food and see how you feel, then eat a little more as you can tolerate it. “Avoid aggravating GI symptoms by not ...

[1] [2] Complications may include stomach bleeding, stomach ulcers, and stomach tumors. [1] When due to autoimmune problems, low red blood cells due to not enough vitamin B12 may occur, a condition known as pernicious anemia. [3] Common causes include infection with Helicobacter pylori and use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs . [1]
T-2 mycotoxin is a trichothecene mycotoxin.It is a naturally occurring mold byproduct of Fusarium spp. fungus which is toxic to humans and other animals. The clinical condition it causes is alimentary toxic aleukia and a host of symptoms related to organs as diverse as the skin, airway, and stomach.
The major virulence factor of C. perfringens is the CPE enterotoxin, which is secreted upon invasion of the host gut, and contributes to food poisoning and other gastrointestinal illnesses. [3] It has a molecular weight of 35.3 kDa, and is responsible for the disintegration of tight junctions between epithelial cells in the gut. [6]
A large animal reservoir is present as well, with up to 100% of poultry, including chickens, turkeys, and waterfowl, having asymptomatic infections in their intestinal tracts. Infected chicken feces may contain up to 10 9 bacteria per 25 grams, and due to the animals' close proximity, the bacteria are rapidly spread to other chickens. This ...
