Toxicity of Ant Venom, Further Studies of the Venom from Pogonomyrmex barbatus.

open access: yesExperimental Biology and Medicine, 1965
SummaryAs previously suggested from earlier and cruder extraction procedures (2) and as now verified, the actual venom material is far more toxic than the earlier homogenized agent. The present work indicates that 1.29 mg/kg of the relatively pure material is equivalent to 24 mg/kg of the abdominal homogenate utilized previously(2). The pure extract is

Venom of the giant ant Dinoponera quadriceps attenuates inflammatory pain in mouse cutaneous wound healing model

open access: yesActa Scientiarum: Biological Sciences, 2020
Arthropod venoms are potential sources of bioactive substances, providing tools for the validation of popular use and new drugs design. Ants belonging to the genus Dinoponera are used in the folk medicine to treat inflammatory conditions.

The effect of caste, mass and colony identity on rescue priorities in the red imported fire ant

open access: yesEcological Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 6, Page 1215-1229, December 2026.
Fire ants will rescue brood when the brood becomes trapped underground. We find that rescuers may use odor cues to locate trapped rescue targets. We demonstrate that a single reproductive larva is preferentially rescued over a single worker larva, but that caches of multiple worker larvae receive equal treatment as a single reproductive larva.

The Peptide Venom Composition of the Fierce Stinging Ant Tetraponera aethiops (Formicidae: Pseudomyrmecinae)

open access: yes, 2019
International audienceIn the mutualisms involving certain pseudomyrmicine ants and different myrmecophytes (i.e., plants sheltering colonies of specialized "plant-ant" species in hollow structures), the ant venom contributes to the host plant biotic ...

Preferences and differences in the trail pheromone of the leaf-cutting ant Atta sexdens sexdens (Hymenoptera: Formicidae)

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Entomology, 2006
The amount of the trail pheromone substance, 3-ethyl-2,5-dimethylpyrazine, of the leaf-cutting ant Atta sexdens sexdens (Hymenoptera: Formicidae) increases with increasing size of the ant from 0 to 35 ng per individual. The compounds 2,5-dimethylpyrazine

A Chaos‐Driven Image Encryption Method With Möbius Transformations and Finite‐Ring Diffusion

open access: yesEngineering Reports, Volume 8, Issue 11, November 2026.
This paper presents a lightweight yet highly secure image encryption framework integrating chaotic dynamics, HKDF‐S3 key expansion, and Möbius‐Affine transformations. The proposed scheme achieves strong confusion and diffusion with minimal computational cost, demonstrating high resistance to differential and chosen‐plaintext attacks through dynamic key

Functional anatomy, jaw mechanisms, and feeding behavior of Dunkleosteus terrelli (Placodermi, Arthrodira)

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, Volume 309, Issue 10, Page 2574-2635, October 2026.
A new musculoskeletal reconstruction and revision of the cranio‐mandibular anatomy of the Devonian arthrodire placoderm Dunkleosteus terrelli from a comparative and functional anatomical perspective. Dunkleosteus is a specialized arthrodire with many specializations for feeding on large vertebrates, and many of its features are part of broader ...
