Study of the design and analytical properties of the lethality neutralization assay used to estimate antivenom potency against Bothrops asper snake venom
(2010-09)
The lethality neutralization assay performed in mice is the standard recommended by the World Health Organization to estimate antivenom potency. The interpretation of its results without considering its analytical capacity ...
Snake venomics and antivenomics of Protobothrops mucrosquamatus and Viridovipera stejnegeri from Taiwan: Keys to understand the variable immune response in horses
(2012-10-22)
The proteomes of the venoms of the snakes Viridovipera stejnegeri and Protobothrops mucrosquamatus from Taiwan were characterized by N-terminal sequencing, MALDI-TOF mass fingerprinting, and collision-induced dissociation ...
Proteomic and toxinological characterization of the venom of the South African Ringhals cobra Hemachatus haemachatus
(2018-06)
The protein composition and toxinological profile of the venom of the African spitting elapid Hemachatus haemachatus
(Ringhals) were characterized by bottom-up proteomics and functional in vitro and in vivo assays.
Venom ...
Preclinical assessment of the neutralizing capacity of antivenoms produced in six Latin American countries against medically-relevant Bothrops snake venoms
(2010-11)
Species of the genus Bothrops induce the vast majority of snakebite envenomings in Latin America. A preclinical study was performed in the context of a regional network of public laboratories involved in the production, ...
Impact of Regional Variation in Bothrops asper Snake Venom on the Design of Antivenoms: Integrating Antivenomics and Neutralization Approaches
(2010-10-21)
Intraspecific snake venom variations have implications in the preparation of venom pools for the generation of antivenoms. The impact of such variation in the cross-reactivity of antivenoms against Bothrops asper venom was ...
Snake Venomics of African Spitting Cobras: Toxin Composition and Assessment of Congeneric Cross-Reactivity of the Pan-African EchiTAb-Plus-ICP Antivenom by Antivenomics and Neutralization Approaches
(2011)
Venomic analysis of the venoms of Naja nigricollis, N. katiensis, N. nubiae, N. mossambica, and N. pallida revealed similar compositional trends. The high content of cytotoxins and PLA2s may account for the extensive tissue ...
Assessing the preclinical efficacy of antivenoms: From the lethality neutralization assay to antivenomics
(2013-07)
The assessment of the capacity of antivenoms to neutralize the lethal activity of snake
venoms is the gold standard in the preclinical analysis of antivenom efficacy, and is
routinely performed by manufacturers and quality ...
Método para la producción de formulaciones inyectables de productos proteicos hemoderivados y productos obtenidos utilizando dicho método
(2011-04-08)
The invention relates to a method for producing injectable pharmaceutical formulations of blood-derived protein materials, including the steps of fractioning the source material in a polymer/salt aqueous two-phasesystem ...
Preclinical assessment of the efficacy of a new antivenom (EchiTAb-Plus-ICP) for the treatment of viper envenoming in sub-Saharan Africa
(2010-02)
A preclinical assessment was performed on the neutralizing efficacy of a whole IgG polyspecific antivenom (EchiTAb-Plus-ICP®), designed for the treatment of snakebite envenomings in Nigeria. It was generated by immunizing ...
Intravenous administration of equine-derived whole IgG antivenom does not induce early adverse reactions in non-envenomed horses and cows
(2010-11)
Administration of antivenoms to treat snakebite envenomings has the potential risk of inducing early adverse reactions. The mechanisms involved in these reactions are unclear. In this study, polyspecific antivenom consisting ...
