Journal of Venomous Animals and Toxins including Tropical Diseases, 2006 Laboratory profile of young ovines was studied in order to evaluate and compare their antiserum production from natural and Cobalt-60 irradiated Crotalus durissus terrificus (C.d.t.) venoms. The parameters analyzed included complete blood count, and urea,

EVALUATION OF THE ANTIBACTERIAL ACTIVITY OF Crotalus durissus terrificus CRUDE VENOM [PDF]
Ciência Animal Brasileira, 2018 Abstract Snake venoms are recognized as a promising source of pharmacologically active substances and are potentially useful for the development of new antimicrobial drugs. This study aimed to investigate the antimicrobial activity of the venom from the rattlesnake Crotalus durissus terrificus against several bacteria.

International Wound Journal, Volume 16, Issue 3, Page 788-792, June 2019., 2019 The overall quality of evidence of autologous platelet‐rich plasma (PRP) for treating chronic wounds remains low. While further well‐designed clinical studies are clearly required to convincingly demonstrate the efficacy of autologous PRP in improved healing of venous leg ulcers (VLUs) and other chronic wounds, there is also an increasing need to ...

Journal of Neurochemistry, Volume 170, Issue 2, February 2026.The ventral root avulsion (VRA) model provides an excellent experimental paradigm for studying injuries at the Central/Peripheral Nervous Systems (CNS/PNS) interface. By physically disconnecting motoneurons (MNs) from the spinal cord surface, VRA induces profound cellular, molecular, and functional deficits with limited spontaneous recovery.

Polymeric Nanoparticles for the Diagnosis and Treatment of Snakebite
Macromolecular Chemistry and Physics, Volume 227, Issue 1, 15 January 2026.Snakebite envenomation affects between 1.8 and 5.5 million people annually, many of whom suffer disabilities or even death. Current antivenoms are composed of plasma‐derived antibodies. However, there remains an underexplored opportunity to utilise polymer‐based nanoparticles.
