The lethal toxicity of the South American rattlesnake (Crotalus durissus terrificus) venom
can be attributed mainly to the presence of a pre-synaptic neurotoxin, crotoxin, with …

Enzymes with gelatinolytic activity were detected in Tityus bahiensis and Tityus serrulatus
venom. Their activity was optimal at pH 8.0 in SDS–PAGE–gelatin. They were inhibited by …

Four neurotoxic polypeptides (Tx2.1, Txt2-5, Tx2-6 and Tx2-9) were purified from the venom
of the South American ‘armed’ spider Phoneutria nigriventer (Keys) by gel filtration and …

A plasminogen activator enzyme (LV-PA) from Lachesis muta muta venom was purified to
homogeneity using gel filtration and anion exchange chromatography. SDS–PAGE under …

In the present study we report the distribution of Tityus serrulatus scorpion venom in serum
and various tissues of CF1 mice and the efficacy of antivenom in reducing venom …

We have investigated the effect of ω-PnTx3-3 (referred to in previous papers simply as Tx3-3),
