Biochemical comparison of venoms from young Colombian Crotalus durissus cumanensis and their parents
Journal of Venomous Animals and Toxins including Tropical Diseases, 2010 Crotalus durissus cumanensis, a rattlesnake endemic to Colombia and Venezuela, is considered one of the most lethal snake species in Latin America. The aim of the present study was to compare the protein content and biological activity of the venom ...

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.

Rapid Identification of Phospholipase A₂ Transcripts from Snake Venoms. [PDF]
Toxins (Basel), 2019 Phospholipase A2 (PLA2) is a major component in snake venoms and it is found in many different isoforms. To identify transcripts encoding different PLA2 isoforms, we developed a simple, rapid procedure.
