Abstract excerpt
The highly potent toxin cereulide is a frequent cause of foodborne intoxications. This extremely resistant toxin is produced by Bacillus cereus group strains carrying the plasmid encoded cesHPTABCD gene cluster. It is known that the capacities to produce cereulide vary greatly between different strains but the genetic background of these variations is not clear. In this study, cereulide production capacities were...
