| in vitro neuromuscular activity of 'colubrid' venoms: clinical and evolutionary implications. | in this study, venoms from species in the colubrinae, homalopsinae, natricinae, pseudoxyrhophiinae and psammophiinae snake families were assayed for activity in the chick biventer cervicis skeletal nerve muscle preparation. boiga dendrophila, boiga cynodon, boiga dendrophila gemincincta, boiga drapiezii, boiga irregularis, boiga nigriceps and telescopus dhara venoms (10 microg/ml) displayed postsynaptic neuromuscular activity as evidenced by inhibition of indirect (0.1 hz, 0.2 ms, supramaximal v ... | 2004 | 15284016 |
