Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics of Avian Egg-Yolk Derived Pure Anti-Snake Venom in Healthy and Disease Animal-Model.

The absence of Fc receptor binding, cost-effective production potential in large quantities in pure form, and better storage stability of avian immunoglobulin (IgY) advocate its therapeutic use as anti-snake venom (ASV). This study develops pure anti-neurotoxin (ANT- IgY) by immunizing White Leghorn hens with Cobra and Krait venoms for demonstrating antigen-antibody binding in vitro/in vivo. The purified IgY from immunized egg-yolk showed immunoprecipitation in Ouchterlony's Double Diffusion (ODD) experiment.
