This strategy leads to a lack of inventory and control of the supplies, increasing the probability of patient displacement, local antivenom shortages and deaths due to lack of treatment. We propose an a...
متن کاملBradykinin-Potentiating Factors of Venom from Iranian Medically Important Scorpions

A simple and efficient DNA extraction protocol for old herbarium leaves of Bellevalia (Asparagaceae, Scilloideae)
High-quality DNA extraction plays an important role to make sharp bands in the gel electrophoresis and also produces clean chromatograms. Usually, DNA extract is delivered using the modified CTAB method but this method cannot obtain high-quality DNA for molecular analysis from old dried leaves of Bellevalia due to having different chemical compounds which inhibit to obtain a clear DNA extractio...
