Autonomic effects of some scorpion venoms and toxins [PDF]
Summary1. The autonomic effects of venoms and toxins from several species of scorpions, including the Indian red scorpion Mesobuthus tamulus, the Chinese scorpion Buthus martensi Karsch and the Israeli scorpion Leiurus quinquestriatus quinquestriatus, all belonging to Buthidae, and the Asian black scorpions Heterometrus longimanus and Heterometrus ...

Addressing Sustainability Challenges in Peptide Synthesis with Flow Chemistry and Machine Learning
A synthetic protocol for polypeptides 6–58 residue long, using recyclable greener solvent mixture (Anisole/DMSO) was developed and compared to traditional SPPS methods and to state‐of‐the‐art synthesizers. Abstract The high cost and the large amount of toxic waste generated during peptide production overshadow the current technology, requiring the ...
