Atropine Use inCentruroidesScorpion Envenomation
Journal of Toxicology: Clinical Toxicology, 2001Systemic scorpion envenomation may be associated with hypersalivation and respiratory distress. Atropine can dry secretions, but is not recommended for stings from many foreign scorpions, since it exacerbates adrenergic toxicity to the cardiopulmonary system. Serious adrenergic effects, however, are rare with Centruroides sculpturatus envenomation.Five

Incidence of Immediate and Delayed Hypersensitivity to Centruroides Antivenom
Annals of Emergency Medicine, 1999To assess the incidence and course of immediate and delayed hypersensitivity to Centruroides antivenom.We performed a 12-month prospective observation study, with telephone follow-up, evaluating the incidence of anaphylaxis or anaphylactoid reactions and serum sickness after Centruroides antivenom administration.

Abstract Margatoxin (MgTX) and noxiustoxin (NxTX) are 39 amino acid peptides which share with charybdotoxin (ChTX) significant sequence homology and such structural motifs as three disulfide bridges, a mid-chain {a-helix), and a C terminal antiparallel β-sheet. MgTX and NxTX comprise the best-studied members of a second class of scorpion

Oxygen consumption of the scorpion centruroides sculpturatus
Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology, 1969Abstract 1. 1. Rhythmic fluctuations in oxygen consumption and the effects of sex, body size, age and temperature on respiratory rates were investigated for the scorpion, Centruroides sculpturatus . 2. 2. A nocturnal rhythm in oxygen consumption was not observed except for an initial increase in response to the change from light to dark. 3.

The Genus Centruroides (Buthidae) and Its Venom
1978In North America scorpions of medical importance belong to the genus Centruroides Marx (1889) of the family Buthidae (Simon, 1879) and the superfamily Buthoidea (Birula, 1917). The name Centururus is a synonym for Centruroides but the latter is correct as explained by Pocock (1920f), who is also quoted by Stahnke (1971).
