A study of myonecrosis induced by the venom of the scorpion tityus serrulatus.
Histology and histopathology, 1992 The pathogenesis of skeletal muscle necrosis produced by Tityus Serrulatus venom was studied by means of light microscopy and electron microscopy. Wistar rats were inoculated subcutaneously, at some distance from the muscles under study, with a sublethal dose of scorpion venom. Samples were taken of the tibialis anterior muscles of both rear legs, 2, 7

Immunological studies with the venom of the scorpion Tityus serrulatus.
Brazilian journal of medical and biological research = Revista brasileira de pesquisas medicas e biologica, 1992 1. We describe a "sandwich" enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) sensitive to quantities of scorpion (Tityus serrulatus) venom (TsV) in the range of 1-3 ng/ml sample. 2.
