Austral Ecology, Volume 51, Issue 6, June 2026.ABSTRACT Snakes are experiencing global population decline due to habitat loss, environmental degradation, pollution and climate change, yet effective conservation is often hindered by their cryptic behaviour and low detectability. In this study, we conducted targeted surveys and estimated detection probabilities for the endangered grey snake ...

Impact of Naja nigricollis Venom on the Production of Methaemoglobin
Toxins, 2018 Snakebite envenomation is an affliction currently estimated to be killing upwards of 100,000 people annually. Snakebite is associated with a diverse pathophysiology due to the magnitude of variation in venom composition that is observed worldwide.

Snake Venom Protease Detection and Inhibition in Serum
ChemMedChem, Volume 21, Issue 7, 14 April 2026.A fluorescence assay enables sensitive detection of the activities of snake venom metalloproteases (SVMP) and serine proteases (SVSP) from viper venoms in buffer and serum. In combination with effective low‐molecular‐weight inhibitors such as ilomastat and nafamostat, this approach offers new prospects for the rapid diagnosis and adjunctive therapy of ...

Occurrence and evolution of cannibal behaviour in extant snakes
Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 2, Page 644-664, April 2026.ABSTRACT Extant snakes (Serpentes) are a highly diverse group of squamate reptiles, which have independently evolved key morphological adaptations to consume a large variety of vertebrate and invertebrate prey. While these predator–prey interactions have been widely addressed by several studies, little is known regarding the occurrence of cannibal ...
