Several of these structures have been used to generate bacterial vaccines. Toxoids are chemically inactivated toxins from bacteria like Clostridium tetani or Corynebacterium diphtheria. The infection with these bacteria itself does not cause the illness, but rather the exotoxins released from the bacteria.

Answer:

answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

Several of these structures have been used to generate bacterial vaccines. Toxoids are chemically inactivated toxins from bacteria like Clostridium tetani or Corynebacterium diphtheria. The infection with these bacteria itself does not cause the illness, but rather the exotoxins released from the bacteria.

Vaccines are made from microbes that are dead or inactive so that they are unable to cause disease. The antigen in the vaccine is the same as the antigen on the surface of the disease-causing microbe. The vaccine stimulates the body to produce antibodies against the antigen in the vaccine.
