Development of an Immunofluorescence Lateral Flow Assay for Detecting Four Medically Important Snake Venoms in China

Journal of Tropical Medicine, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Snakebite envenomation requires rapid venom identification for effective treatment, a need unmet by current diagnostics in China. This study aimed to develop a rapid, multiplex immunofluorescence lateral flow assay for the simultaneous detection of four major venomous snakes: Deinagkistrodon acutus, Bungarus multicinctus, Naja atra, and Agkistrodon ...

Novel Natural History Observations on the Reproductive Biology of King Cobra (Ophiophagus hannah) From Yunnan Province, China 云南省眼镜王蛇繁殖生物学的野外观察

Integrative Conservation, Volume 4, Issue 4, Page 523-526, December 2025.
Here we report three cases of nesting behavior in Yunnan Province, China. Our observations confirmed the presence of multi‐individual participation during the nest guarding, and this behavior was associated with an exceptionally high clutch size. ABSTRACT Although the King Cobra (Ophiophagus hannah) has received considerable conservation attention ...

Acute rejection is associated with antibodies to non-Gal antigens in baboons using Gal-knockout pig kidneys [PDF]

, 2005
We transplanted kidneys from α1,3-galactosyltransferase knockout (GalT-KO) pigs into six baboons using two different immunosuppressive regimens, but most of the baboons died from severe acute humoral xenograft rejection. Circulating induced antibodies to

Animal medical systems from Apis to apes: history, recent advances and future perspectives

Biological Reviews, Volume 100, Issue 6, Page 2608-2624, December 2025.
ABSTRACTAnimal medical systems encompass a wide range of behaviours aimed at maintaining or improving health. It has become clear that these behaviours are not limited to animals treating themselves (self‐medication) but also include the treatment of group members, resulting in the adoption of the more inclusive term “animal medication”. Behaviour with
