What Are the Health Implications of Hemolysin Exposure?
Exposure to hemolysins can cause a range of health issues, primarily due to the destruction of red blood cells. It can lead to anemia, jaundice, and in severe cases, organ failure due to the inability of the blood to transport oxygen effectively. Infections involving hemolysin-producing bacteria can also result in systemic inflammation and sepsis, which are life-threatening conditions if not treated promptly.
