Article Synopsis
- Snakebite poses serious health risks in tropical and subtropical regions, leading to severe pathologies like hemotoxicity, neurotoxicity, and possibly death.
- The study focuses on understanding venom toxins and enhancing treatment methods using mass spectrometry techniques, specifically electrospray ionization (ESI-MS) and matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization (MALDI-MS).
- By utilizing advanced separation and analysis methods, such as reversed-phase liquid chromatography, the researchers aimed to correlate data from both spectrometry techniques to better identify and profile venom toxins for effective treatment development.
Worldwide, it is estimated that there are 1.8 to 2.7 million cases of envenoming caused by snakebites.
