Animal Toxins de Herve Rochat

Animal Toxins: Facts and Protocols: Methods and Tools in Biosciences and Medicine

Herve Rochat

Marie-France Martin-Eauclaire

This manual surveys toxins from insects, spiders, mollusks, fish, and snakes which have biotechnological applications. It reviews aspects of toxin origin, their molecular mechanism, and their cellular and pathogenic effects. It also provides methodology for the application of these toxins in the research laboratory. This includes a description of the extraction methods, biochemical characterization, and applications in pharmacological studies.
