Hematology and serum biochemistry of Indian spectacled cobra (Naja naja) and Indian rat snake (Ptyas mucosa)
AIM To study the hematology and serum biochemistry parameters of Indian spectacled cobra (Naja naja) and Indian rat snake (Ptyas mucosa) and to evaluate the differences in the same between captive and wild populations. MATERIALS AND METHODS Animals were categorized into four groups, viz., wild Indian spectacled cobra (n=10), wild Indian rat snakes (n=10), captive Indian spectacled cobra (n=10...
متن کاملHomology Modeling and Prediction of Catalytic Amino Acid in the Neurotoxin from Indian Cobra (Naja naja)
The neurotoxin secreted by Indian cobra (Naja naja) binds to acetylcholine receptor of nerve cells, which leads to a lump in the nerve impulse, ceases breathing, thereby causing the death of a person due to suffocation. These neurotoxins are small peptide with approximately 7 kDa. Homology modeling was performed to generate the 3D structure of neurotoxins (A, B, C and D) of N. naja, using the k...
متن کاملIsolation and Purification of L-amino Acid Oxidase from Indian Cobra Naja naja
The enzyme L-Amino Acid Oxidase (LAAO) is widely distributed in snake venoms, contributes a reasonable toxicity to the venoms. However LAAO from Indian cobra (Naja naja ) snake venom has not yet isolated previously. In the present study LAAO from Indian cobra (Naja naja ) snake venom was purified by sequential steps of cation exchange chromatography (CM-Sephadex C-25; CM-52 cellulose), followed...
متن کاملSystemic pathological effects induced by cobra (Naja naja) venom from geographically distinct origins of Indian peninsula.
Indian cobra (Naja naja) venom from different geographical locations varied in its composition and biochemical, pharmacological and immunological properties. Recently it has been shown that the variation in composition of venom from different geographical origin of Indian peninsula is due to the quantitative difference in the same components and also the presence of different biochemical entiti...
متن کاملThe Venom of Indian Cobra (Naja Naja) in Certain Painful Conditions
During the past few years a great deal of interest has been taken in the use of snake venoms in medical treatment. The results obtained in a series of cases treated in the Carmichael Hospital and School of Tropical Medicine, Calcutta, have been reported previously by the present authors (Chopra and Chowhan, 1937). Since then, the opportunity for treating a large number of patients suffering fro...
