Long-term Effects of Snake Envenoming
Toxins, 2019 Long-term effects of envenoming compromise the quality of life of the survivors of snakebite. We searched MEDLINE (from 1946) and EMBASE (from 1947) until October 2018 for clinical literature on the long-term effects of snake envenoming using different ...

Snake fang–inspired stamping patch for transdermal delivery of liquid formulations
Science Translational Medicine, 2019 A microneedle patch that uses snake fang–inspired multiple open grooves can rapidly deliver liquid-phase drugs and vaccines under capillary action. Bioinspired drug delivery Topical formulations, transdermal patches, and microneedles can be used for drug

British Journal of Haematology, 2017 Snake venoms are mixtures of numerous proteinacious components that exert diverse functional activities on a variety of physiological targets. Because the toxic constituents found in venom vary from species to species, snakebite victims can present with ...

Ambiguity attitudes in qualitative contexts: The role of prior beliefs
Journal of Behavioral Decision Making, Volume 36, Issue 1, January 2023., 2023 Abstract Most studies of ambiguity aversion rely on experimental paradigms involving monetary bets. Thus, the extent to which ambiguity aversion occurs outside of such contexts is much less understood, particularly when the situation cannot easily be reduced to numerical terms.

Snake Robot Gait Decomposition and Gait Parameter Optimization [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 This paper proposes Gait Decomposition (G.D), a method of mathematically decomposing snake movements, and Gait Parameter Gradient (GPG), a method of optimizing decomposed gait parameters. G.D is a method that can express the snake gait mathematically and concisely from generating movement using the curve function to the motor control order when ...

Snake Venom Peptides: Tools of Biodiscovery
Toxins, 2018 Nature endowed snakes with a lethal secretion known as venom, which has been fine-tuned over millions of years of evolution. Snakes utilize venom to subdue their prey and to survive in their natural habitat. Venom is known to be a very poisonous mixture,

Lateral oscillation and body compliance help snakes and snake robots stably traverse large, smooth obstacles [PDF]
Integrative and Comparative Biology (2020), 60 (1), 171, 2020 Snakes can move through almost any terrain. Similarly, snake robots hold the promise as a versatile platform to traverse complex environments like earthquake rubble. Unlike snake locomotion on flat surfaces which is inherently stable, when snakes traverse complex terrain by deforming their body out of plane, it becomes challenging to maintain stability.

Pharmacokinetics of Snake Venom
Toxins, 2018 Understanding snake venom pharmacokinetics is essential for developing risk assessment strategies and determining the optimal dose and timing of antivenom required to bind all venom in snakebite patients. This review aims to explore the current knowledge
