Molluscicidal Activity of <i>Camellia Sinensis</i> (Green Tea) and <i>Camellia sinensis</i> var. Assamica (Purple Tea) Extracts Against <i>Biomphalaria pfeifferi,</i> the Major Vector Snail of Human Schistosomiasis in Sub-Saharan Africa. [PDF]

J Parasitol Res
Freshwater pulmonate snails are prevalent across Kenya and act as intermediate hosts for trematode parasites, some of which are snail vectors for human schistosomiasis. Chemical molluscicides have rarely been used routinely in Kenya to control snails due to high costs of manufacture and the subsequent environmental concerns associated with their use ...

Structural similarities reveal an expansive conotoxin family with a two-finger toxin fold. [PDF]

Protein Sci
Abstract Venomous animals have evolved a diverse repertoire of toxins with considerable pharmaceutical potential. The rapid evolution of peptide toxins, such as the conotoxins produced by venomous marine cone snails, often complicates efforts to infer their evolutionary relationships based solely on sequence information.

Uricotelism in the Common Indian Apple-Snail, Pila globosa (Swainson) [PDF]

Nature, 1952
NITROGEN catabolism in animals has been assessed partly by analysis of the excretory products and partly by the identification of the enzymes in the liver or hepatopancreas. Since Strohl reviewed the excretory mechanism in the Mollusca, work on a few European marine, freshwater and terrestrial gastropods has been extended1–4.
