Product Description
Mechanism of action
Bezlotoxumab is a fully human monoclonal antibody that binds and neutralises *Clostridioides difficile* toxin B. It prevents toxinmediated cell rounding, cytoskeletal disruption and epithelial damage by blocking toxin interaction with hostcell receptors. Its mechanism targets recurrence rather than acute infection control.
Benefits and advantages
Used in microbiology research, toxinhost interaction studies, neutralisingantibody development, gastrointestinal pathophysiology modelling and C. difficile recurrenceprevention investigations. A key tool for studying toxinmediated colonic injury.
Side effects and risks
Risks include infusion reactions, hypersensitivity, heartfailure exacerbation in predisposed individuals and mild GI effects. Handle under biologicagent containment with temperaturecontrolled storage.
Only GMP materials will be supplied, logistics all according to GDP.
