Abstract
Botulism is a rare but serious disease caused by the anaerobic bacterium Clostridium botulinum, which produces spores and a toxin. It is very widespread in nature, in the ground and in the digestion of mice, rats and cats. The toxin is often created in rotten food, and the most common sources of infection for humans are canned goods and dried meat products. It is also possible to get the disease if an injured spot on the skin comes into contact with the causative agent of the disease. The disease is not contagious, but occurs suddenly and attacks the nerves.
