Note: Species Venom Characteristics represent general characteristics. Individual analysis may vary. Venom is collected under stringent laboratory conditions using disposable labwear for each extraction. Venom is collected into sterile plastic cups with parafilm covering. Snakes are allowed to bite into the parafilm diaphragm and venom glands are not massaged. Immediately following collection, each venom sample is clarified by centrifugation at 500 x g for 5 minutes to remove cellular debris and frozen at -90º C until lyophilized. Extracted venoms are never pooled and each venom container is labeled with the snake's scientific and common name, ID tag number and sex. The ID tag number can be traced back to the information from the Internet database at:

The NNTRC Snakebook Database

The snakes are cataloged on the Internet database along with their geographical location data, hemorrhagic and proteolytic activities, high performance liquid chromatography and electrophoretic titration profiles. Using the ID tag number, the same venom can be ordered at a later date. If pooled venom is required, the customer can select which venoms are to be pooled. Since venoms are collected over a long period, large quantities can be obtained from the same snake.
