Kháng sinh kháng nọc rắn được sử dụng như nguyên liệu để phát triển việc phát hiện nhanh nọc rắn Naja atra

Snakebite envenomation, if not promptly treated, can lead to death or severe sequelae, which greatly affect quality of life of victims. Until now, snake venom antisera proved to be the most effective treatment for snakebite victims; prior to the therapy, however, it is essential to identify the venom, in order to select specific antiserum for therapy. In this study, the authors have successfully produced two types of antibodies against Naja atra snake venom, including rabbit IgG and chicken IgY, isolated from serum of rabbit and from egg yolk laid of hens immunized with the snake venom antigen, respectively. These antibodies can be used for the development of rapid test for detection and identification of Naja atra snake venom.
