An in vivo examination of the stability of venom from the Australian box jellyfish Chironex fleckeri
, 2007 We have previously characterised the pharmacological activity of a number of jellyfish venoms with a particular emphasis on the profound cardiovascular effects.

The in vitro vascular effects of two chirodropid (Chironex fleckeri and Chiropsella bronzie) venoms
, 2007 Clinical observations suggest a primary cardiotoxic role in fatal Chironex fleckeri stings. The limited research available indicates that Chiropsella bronzie venom acts in a similar manner although appears to be less potent.

Sources and movements of Chironex fleckeri medusae using statolith elemental chemistry
, 2012 Chironex fleckeri medusae metamorphose from sessile polyps, possibly in estuarine environments, and migrate into coastal waters. The objective of this study was to critically test the anecdotal paradigm that the medusae originate in lower salinity waters.

, 2012 An investigation into the cardiotoxic effects in human cardiomyocytes of different fractions (as produced from an FPLC) of the venom from Chironex fleckeri showed that whole venom caused cardiac cell death in minutes, measured as cell detachment using ...

One touch of venom: a box jellyfish is a killer without peer
, 2002 Found in the waters off northern Australia, the box jellyfish Chironex fleckeri is not the only marine invertebrate to use venom, but it is the possessor of arguably the most lethal venom in the ...
