Authors: Ceyda Caliskan, Deniz Simsek, Charlotte Leese, Ciara Doran, Elizabeth Seward, Andrew A Peden, Bazbek Davletov Abstract: Botulinum neurotoxin type A (BoNT/A) is a widely used biopharmaceutic for the treatment of neurological diseases and aesthetic medicine, allowing months-long paralysis of target muscles and glands. Large numbers of mice are used for multiple botulinum applications including batch release potency testing, antitoxin testing, countermeasure development and basic research. The mouse bioassay (MBA) has historically been the industry gold-standard in the botulinum field and is still heavily used for... Citation: ALTEX PubDate: 2024-07-29 DOI: 10.14573/altex.2312071
