POISON by Janet Spencer

In the 1940s there were only 60 possible poisons that could be used to kill a person. Then came the chemical explosion, and by the mid-1970s there were some 5,000 poisons which could be combined in different ways to produce perhaps a quarter of a million different deadly doses. Come along with Tidbits as we avoid poisons!

BOTULISM

• In a small town in Germany in 1735, thirteen people shared a sausage. A few hours later, they all became sick. Six died, and the other seven took months to recover. The strange illness was named after the Latin word for sausage— botulism. • The botulism toxin is seven million times more powerful than cobra venom. One ounce, properly distributed, could wipe out everyone in the U.S. The botulism organism evolved on this planet some two billion years ago. At that time, there was no oxygen on Earth. • Today botulism lives indefinitely as a dormant spore in air and dirt, surviving temperatures between absolute zero and boiling. When it finds the right conditions— plenty of food and an absence of oxygen— it multiplies, releasing toxins. Deaths from botulism are particularly worrying for home canners. If a jar has not been heated high enough or long enough, the botulism organism will thrive.
