Article Synopsis
- - Accidental bites from brown spiders in Brazil cause serious health issues, including severe skin damage and potential death, highlighting the need for effective antivenoms.
- - Current antivenom production relies heavily on animal testing, particularly using horse immunization after extracting venom directly from spiders.
- - The study introduces a new chimeric protein, Lil, designed to stimulate antibody production against brown spider venom, aiming to reduce animal testing by minimizing spider usage and prolonging the lifespan of horses in antivenom development.
