Clinical effectiveness of hymenoptera venom immunotherapy [PDF]
, 2013 Treatment failure during venom immunotherapy (VIT) may be associated with a variety of risk factors. Our aim was to evaluate the association of baseline serum tryptase concentration (BTC) and of other parameters with the frequency of VIT failure during ...

Envenomation Leads to Venom Protein Reduction and a Recovery Period in Bumblebee Workers. [PDF]
Ecol EvolThe evolution and deployment of venom systems in social bees have been central to their ecological success, though not without costs. However, for species such as bumblebees, where stinging is not apparently fatal, it raises the question of what, if any, are the consequences associated with venom usage (envenomation).

Effects of the Argentine ant venom on terrestrial amphibians [PDF]
Conservation Biology, 2020 Abstract Invasive species have major impacts on biodiversity and are one of the primary causes of amphibian decline and extinction. Unlike other top ant invaders that negatively affect larger fauna via chemical defensive compounds, the Argentine ant ( Linepithema humile ...

Hydration‐Gated Photoinduced Electron Transfer in BODIPY Dyes
Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.Hydration switches photoinduced electron transfer (PET) ON in alkoxy‐coordinated BODIPY dyes via specific hydrogen bonding. This gating yields a fluorescence lifetime span of ∼6 ns, enabling fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy (FLIM) contrast in live cells and organoids. ABSTRACT Fluorescent probes based on photoinduced electron transfer (PET) are
