Abstract
A highly sensitive method of analyzing a sample for the presence or activity of botulinum neurotoxin (BoNT) or antibodies specific for botulinum neurotoxin is disclosed. In one embodiment, the method comprises the steps of preparing primary non-human mammalian or avian spinal cord cells, and exposing the cells to a test sample, in parallel with a control sample, and examining the extent of cleavage of the intracellular neuronal target protein in both the test and control sample.
