Can you get botulism . . .

[kelel01 1]

Yes, yes they were.

I sleep through Micro a lot.

Botulism is very much related to "puffed" cans, as this bacteria thrives on deprived oxygen environments. Done few courses on it for my EMT-I cert, and has been one of the bacterias named as possible usage for biological weapons.

Advice: Don't eat anything from a puffed or rusted can.

Awwe, MAN, . . .Micro, just move it around a bit more - she'll stay awake . . .

A quick question. What did you think Botulism was?

"I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher

I knew it was a bacterium. That was about it.

And bacteria can live and thrive in any environment (well, each bacterium is somewhat environment-dependent, but taking into account ALL bacteria, they can live anywhere).

So how am I supposed to know botulism can't live in an anaerobic environment such as my Diet Dr. Pepper can?

I'm surprised you even go to class. I haven't been to a Micro class since this year started. I'll occasionally show up to Path, but even then, there are some things best learned on your own.

We get graded on attendance.

Didn't make me go yesterday morning, though.

...Based on the, oh three, paragraphs I read, I think they were referring to canned FOOD.

Wait a minute...are you saying coke is not food? I thought it was a basic food group all in itself! Right up there with chips and snickers.

My reality and yours are quite different.

Damn it, I'm late.

Glad to see someone made the sexual reference, though, in my absence.

Paint me in a corner, but my color comes back.

Actually chips & Snickers ARE foods.
Coke, however, is not. It is a beverage--which amazingly some do utilize as a source of sustinence.

Who says "Pop" instead of "soda"?

Depends on what part of the country I'm in.

Good question. Maybe it should just be called "tea".

Botulism is a rare but serious paralytic illness caused by a nerve toxin that is produced by the bacterium Clostridium botulinum. There are three main kinds of botulism. Foodborne botulism, Wound botulism, Infant botulism

would too much BOTOX injection cause botulism ?? (Yes this is a serious question)

Yes. It can cause a form of botulism. In fact, it does for the injected muscle.

It should be noted that botulin toxin is the most toxic natural poison known on earth.

BOTOX actually gives the recipient a form of botulism. The serum - botulinum toxin a - is but one of the seven toxins constituents of the botulin toxin. Toxin a attacks one of the proteins that is responsible for the release of a nerutransmitter, which is why paralysis results. The other toxins affect other things, so it is much like certain snake venoms that have several different toxins that attack different things.

If properly injected directly into the muscle, BOTOX gives a form of botulism only to the muscle. For people who don't know what they are doing, they can get some of it to leak, causing that form of paralysis in other places. So, to put simply, the shit should be taken seriously.

Actually if you drink straight from the can without washing around the pull ring you can get all types of diseases transmitted by rats on mice
the warehouses where the cans are stored normally are not the most salubrios of places, I used to get called out quite a bit to the schweeps an coca cola plants to repair electrical junction boxes an cables that that had been chewed through by rats an mice.

now, have a nice day y'all

Anything that defines any particular substance as the most toxic substance, is inherently wrong.

It's a popular fact that nothing can be regarded as the most, very few things are the least, and most certainly, nothing is ever always.
