Venom is a toxic secretion produced by glands with special functions in animals. These glands are often connected to the bone spurs, teeth, tail spurs and other sharp organs of animals. Animal venom is mainly used to kill or anesthetize prey, and some animal venom also has digestive functions.
As a natural resource with great development and application potential, venom has strong biological activity. The composition of the venom is very complex. The venom generally includes proteins, enzymes, small molecule peptides, amino acids, biological amines, and metal ions, some of which can be developed into drugs.
The world's toxic animal resources are very rich. Most animal phylum in nature contain poisonous species, common ones are:
At present, when conducting various researches using venom, protecting researchers from the deadly toxicity of venom is still a huge challenge. The main obstacles include the cumbersome and dangerous venom collection process and the difficult-to-separate venom gland tissue. Based on an experienced research team and a professional venomics research platform, Creative Proteomics can provide you with services related to venom extraction and processing, including but not limited to:
Creative Proteomics has gradually developed into an integrated company that provides prote4mics, genomics, metabolomics, glycomics, and bioinformatics analysis services to researchers in the pharmaceutical, biotechnology, agriculture and nutrition industries, as well as academic and government organizations.
