  1. haemolysin

    Haemolysin is a substance, typically produced by bacteria, that causes destruction or lysis (rupture) of red blood cells, thus releasing hemoglobin into the surrounding medium. This process is often used by microorganisms to obtain nutrients such as iron from the hemoglobin. Hemolysins can also contribute to the virulence of certain pathogenic microorganisms by damaging host tissues and supporting the spread of the bacteria.
