Antibody neutralization of a myotoxin from the venom of Bothrops asper (terciopelo)
Neutralization of biological activities of B. asper myotoxin by a monospecific anti-myotoxin rabbit serum and polyvalent antivenom was studied. Both antisera neutralized myotoxic, phospholipase A and lethal activities of myotoxin, whereas edema-forming activity of myotoxin was not neutralized by these antisera.

Crotalus atrox venom preconditioning increases plasma fibrinogen and reduces perioperative hemorrhage in a rat model of surgical brain injury. [PDF]
Perioperative bleeding is a potentially devastating complication in neurosurgical patients, and plasma fibrinogen concentration has been identified as a potential modifiable risk factor for perioperative bleeding.

Neutralization of local tissue damage induced by Bothrops asper (terciopelo) snake venom
Local tissue damage represents a serious consequence of Bothrops asper envenomations. It encompasses a complex series of alterations, including myonecrosis, dermonecrosis, hemorrhage and edema. Due to its rapid development it is difficult to neutralize by antivenoms, especially if there is a delay in serotherapy.

Termobiología de Bothrops asper (Garman, 1883) en Colombia: ensayos ecofisiológicos
Se determinó el rango de temperatura óptimo (RTO) y las temperaturas críticas (CTmax, CTMin) de la tasa respiratoria (TR) y los comportamientos de alimentación (CA) y de defensa (CD) de Bothrops asper en condiciones de cautiverio. Se usaron serpientes adultas (n=10) con una talla de 137.2±17.2 cm y peso de 829.0±378.9 g, sometidas a temperaturas ...
