The new venom-neutralising antibody has been developed based on the approach used earlier to screen for antibodies against HIV and Covid-19. Researchers say this development takes us one step closer to a universal antibody solution that can offer broad protection against a variety of snake venoms.
The current strategy for developing antivenoms involves injecting snake venom into equines like horses, ponies and mules, and collecting antibodies from their blood
Scientists at the Indian Institute of Science (IISc) have developed a synthetic human antibody that can neutralise a potent neurotoxin produced by the Elapidae family of highly toxic snakes
Scientists at the Scripps Research Institute and the Evolutionary Venomics Lab at the Centre for Ecological Sciences (CES), Indian Institute of Science (IISc), have developed a synthetic human antibody that can neutralise a potent neurotoxin produced by the Elapidae family of highly toxic snakes. The team adapted an approach used earlier to screen for antibodies against HIV and COVID-19 to synthesize the new venom-neutralising antibody.
