Pulmonary hemorrhage induced by jararhagin, a metalloproteinase from Bothrops jararaca snake venom
(2003-11-15)Jararhagin is the most important hemorrhagic component in the venom of the snake Bothrops jararaca, a species of medical importance in South America. It is a P-III zinc-dependent metalloproteinase comprising catalytic, ... -
Purification and characterization of BaH4, a hemorrhagic metalloproteinase from the venom of the snake Bothrops asper
(2000-01)A hemorrhagic metalloproteinase, named BaH4, was isolated from the venom of the snake Bothrops asper by a combination of ion-exchange chromatography on DEAE-Sepharose and gel filtration on Sephacryl S-200. BaH4 is a 69 kDa ... -
Purification and characterization of myotoxin IV, a phospholipase A2 variant, from Bothrops asper snake venom
(1995)A basic myotoxic protein was purified from Bothrops asper venom. Like other basic Bothrops myotoxins, myotoxin IV induces acute muscle damage after intramuscular injection in mice and disrupts negatively charged liposomes ... -
Purification of equine whole IgG snake antivenom by using an aqueous two phase system as a primary purification step
(2015-01)There is a need to introduce innovations in the manufacture of snake antivenoms to increase the supply of these products worldwide. In this work, the fractionation of equine hyperimmune plasma with a new methodology that ... -
Purification of IgG and albumin from human plasma by aqueous two phase system fractionation
(2012-08)The current shortages in human plasma products at global levels justify the development of new, cost effective plasma fractionation methods. We have developed a fractionation process to obtain immunoglobulin G (IgG) and ... -
Quantification of snake venom proteomes by mass spectrometry-considerations and perspectives.
(2023-05-08)The advent of soft ionization mass spectrometry-based proteomics in the 1990s led to the development of a new dimension in biology that conceptually allows for the integral analysis of whole proteomes. This transition from ... -
Quantitation by enzyme-immunoassay of antibodies against Bothrops myotoxins in four commercially-available antivenoms
(1991)An enzyme-immunoassay (EIA) for the quantitation of antibodies against myotoxins present in the venoms of Bothrops asper (Costa Rica), B. atrox (Colombia) and B. moojeni (Brazil), was developed. This EIA was utilized for ... -
¿Qué es el Síndrome de Ovario Poliquístico?
