Chapter 24, Problem 24.53P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
Describe the mechanism of working of the botulinum toxin.
Concept Introduction:
The neurotoxins are the molecules, which can cause the change in the activity of the synapse and hence, blocks the neural activity. The botulinum toxin also blocks the neural activity.
