Bordetella Pertussis Toxin
The inactivated toxin produced by Bordetella pertussis bacteria and included in acellular pertussis vaccines to induce protective immunity against whooping cough. The toxin plays a central role in the disease process, and antibodies against it are important for protection. Inactivation ensures it is safe for use in vaccines while retaining immunogenicity.
