Bacillus thuringiensis: production of endotoxin and mechanism of action
Gram positive case   on the first day back to class at the local university, a student noticed a small abscess on his right elbow but didn't think much about it. Over the next couple days, however the abscess became more swollen and painful. The student decided to visit the health centet he told the doctor it looked like a spider bite but didn't recall being bitten. The doctor took a swab of the lesion and prescribed an antibiotic cream as it looked infected. The swab was sent to the lab for testing within a few days of treatment, the student lesion was healed.   what is the overview of the etiological agent?( including basic characteristics of the organism, diseases it cause and use in industry) Broad to get a sense of what this organism is
