Lactic acid bacteria reduce the toxicity of tetrodotoxin through peptidoglycan mediated binding by Chang Liu, Jingqin Ye, Chang'e Wang, Hengliang Wang, Ying Lu

“…In addition, peptidoglycan (PG) of three strains of LABs was found to be a key component in the removal of TTX, which could decrease the toxicity of TTX by more than 87.0 %. By analyzing the changes of functional groups of PGs, zeta-potential and binding effect between PG and TTX before and after the masking of carboxyl or amino groups of PGs, it was found that the removal effect of PG to TTX was significantly decreased (>55.0%) when the carboxyl or amino groups of PGs were masked. …”
