Neurotoxic, cytotoxic and cardiovascular effects of some Australasian elapid venoms [PDF]

, 2017
A range of toxic components found in Australasian elapid venoms have been postulated to account for the clinical outcomes of envenoming. Depending on the species of snake, these outcomes may include neurotoxicity with flaccid paralysis, coagulopathy with

A novel in vitro potency assay of antisera against Thai Naja kaouthia based on nicotinic acetylcholine receptor binding

Scientific Reports, 2017
Snake envenomation is an important medical problem. One of the hurdles in antivenom development is the in vivo assay of antivenom potency which is expensive, gives variable results and kills many animals.
