[Changes in osmotic resistance of erythrocytes of human blood caused by Vipera berus venom]. 1979

C Bruno, and R Cuppini, and N Valora

The effect of Berus viper's venom on the osmotic globular resistance of human blood, incubated for a period of 2 hours at 20 degrees C with amounts of venom in the range of 200 to 400 gamma/ml of blood, has been studied. The hemolytic effect occurs to a greater extent at NaCl concentrations higher than 0,60%.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D009996 Osmotic Fragility RED BLOOD CELL sensitivity to change in OSMOTIC PRESSURE. When exposed to a hypotonic concentration of sodium in a solution, red cells take in more water, swell until the capacity of the cell membrane is exceeded, and burst. Saline Fragility,Fragility, Osmotic,Fragility, Saline
D004912 Erythrocytes Red blood cells. Mature erythrocytes are non-nucleated, biconcave disks containing HEMOGLOBIN whose function is to transport OXYGEN.

D014757 Viper Venoms Venoms from SNAKES of the viperid family. They tend to be less toxic than elapid or hydrophid venoms and act mainly on the vascular system, interfering with coagulation and capillary membrane integrity and are highly cytotoxic. They contain large amounts of several enzymes, other factors, and some toxins.
