Description & Applications

Product Description

Deinagkistrodon acutus (Sharp-nosed Viper or Hundred Pacer) venom is characterized by its profound effects on the hemostatic system. It is a rich source of acutin, a thrombin-like serine protease that cleaves fibrinogen, and various metalloproteinases that cause hemorrhage and tissue necrosis.

Research Applications

  • Coagulation Studies: Isolation of thrombin-like enzymes for defibrinogenation assays.
  • Platelet Aggregation: Investigation of aggretin and other platelet-modulating peptides.
  • Structural Biology: Source of snake venom metalloproteinases (SVMPs) for structural characterization.

Quality Control

Venom Supplies ensures high enzymatic activity in every lot. Thrombin-like activity is verified using fibrinogen clotting assays.
