Zoologica Africana, 1978 Comparative electrophoretic studies were conducted on the venom of the rinkals (Hemachatus haemachatus). Egyptian cobra Naja haje haje) and puffadder (Bills arietans). Considerable differences in electrophoretic characteristics were found between fresh venom and commercial venom samples from the same species of snake.

Venom-related transcripts from Bothrops jararaca tissues provide novel molecular insights into the production and evolution of snake venom. [PDF]
, 2014 Attempts to reconstruct the evolutionary history of snake toxins in the context of their co-option to the venom gland rarely account for nonvenom snake genes that are paralogous to toxins, and which therefore represent important connectors to ancestral ...
