Beschreibung

General description

Hemolytic activity of tetanolysin is determined using 2.5% rabbit red blood cells at 37 °C for 40 min.

Application

Tetanolysin has been used to analyze the formation of lytic pores in red blood cells (RBCs)¹. It has also been used to permeabilize infected RBCs².

Biochem/physiol Actions

Cholesterol-binding toxin used to permeabilize cellular membranes to enhance the entry of macromolecules into the interior of the cell. Pores induced reported to be in the range of 20-50 nm.
