A study of myonecrosis induced by the venom of the scorpion tityus serrulatus.
Histology and histopathology, 1987 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

Developmental effects of Tityus serrulatus scorpion venom on the rat offspring
Brain Research Bulletin, 2008 Scorpion envenomation is a public health problem. Extensive research has been conducted to describe the systemic effects of scorpion venoms and their toxins, however, few reports are available about their effects on pre- and post-natal periods. Whole venom of the Tityus serrulatus scorpion was administered to rats on the 10th and 16th days of pregnancy

Inter- and intrapopulational genetic variability of Tityus serrulatus (Scorpiones, Buthidae)
Acta Tropica, 2009 In Brazil, there are near 20 genera and almost 120 species of scorpions of which 95% reproduce sexually. Parthenogenetic reproduction, however, may also take place. To gain insight into useful molecular markers in parthenogenetic scorpion species, we studied DNA polymorphism using two molecular approaches: simple sequence repeat anchored polymerase ...
