Toxicology and Applied Pharmacology, 1996
The immunoreactivity and pharmacokinetics of a new horse F(ab')2 scorpion antivenom and its effect on Buthus occitanus mardochei venom plasma disposition in the rabbit were studied. The scorpion venom-specific F(ab')2 affinity constant determined by immunoradiometric assay was 1.6 +/- 0.6 10(8) M-1. One group received a F(ab')2 bolus dose of 9.57 mg.kg-

Venomous snake bites, scorpions, and spiders
2014Neurologic dysfunction due to natural neurotoxins is an important, but neglected, public health hazard in many parts of the world, particularly in the tropics. These toxins are produced by or found among a variety of live forms that include venomous snakes, arthropods such as scorpions, spiders, centipedes, stinging insects (Hymenoptera), ticks ...

Distribution of scorpion venom in locusts
Journal of Insect Physiology, 1965Abstract Redissolved freeze dried venom of Leiurus quinquestriatus H. & E. was labelled with I131, and injected into adults of Locusta migratoria migratorioides R. & F. which were dissected at intervals of 5 min to 216 hr following injection.

On the Toxicity of Scorpion Venom
The American Journal of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 1954Summary The toxicity of the venoms of the Brazilian scorpions Tityus bahiensis and T. serrulatus is extremely variable at different times. The properties of venom extracted from triturated glands are different from those of the pure toxin obtained by milking the live scorpions. Mean lethal doses of from about 0.5 to more than 2.0 mg./kg.

Modern Venom Profiling: Mining into Scorpion Venom Biodiversity
2014Scorpions and their sting are infamous for causing pain, morbidity, and, in some cases, death. However, research into scorpion venoms has revealed the presence of components that potentially have beneficial properties for humans. Such components may be developed into therapeutics or bioinsecticides.

Neurotoxins from Scorpion Venoms
2002Scorpions have been classified into six families: Bothriuridae, Scorpionidae, Buthidae, Vejovidae, Chlaerilidae, and Chactidae. Only the venoms of Buthidae scorpions have been described as potentially dangerous for humans. This Buthidae family is divided into subfamilies on the basis of geographic and morphological criteria: Isometrinae, which is of ...
