Positive association study/paper
NS = none stated
The authors and their organizations are trying to be objective as possible with subjective commentary in the notes column. We are simply trying to centralize key papers in this new scientific field. The viewer is ultimately responsible for reviewing, interpreting and applying the papers listed for whatever use case is needed. (N.B., During September/October 2022, we will be adding new papers to the Biotoxin Database. As a result, some entries might not have all details filled out. Thank you for your patience.)
