Snake Venom Protease Detection and Inhibition in Serum. [PDF]
ChemMedChemA fluorescence assay enables sensitive detection of the activities of snake venom metalloproteases (SVMP) and serine proteases (SVSP) from viper venoms in buffer and serum. In combination with effective low‐molecular‐weight inhibitors such as ilomastat and nafamostat, this approach offers new prospects for the rapid diagnosis and adjunctive therapy of ...

Conservation Biology, Volume 37, Issue 4, August 2023., 2023 Abstract Inner phenomena, such as personal motivations for pursuing sustainability, may be critical levers for improving conservation outcomes. Most conservation research and policies, however, focus on external phenomena (e.g., ecological change or economic processes). We explored the factors shaping 9 conservation attitudes toward forest and wildlife

Environmental drivers of tropical forest snake phenology: Insights from citizen science
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 13, Issue 7, July 2023., 2023 We used long‐term time‐series data to investigate the environmentally driven changes in the activity patterns of 25 snake species in the Atlantic Forest region of southeastern Brazil. Overall, we found snake activity patterns were largely driven by temperature and humidity, with venomous and non‐venomous species responding differently to climate.
