Snake (Naja naja) venom was introduced in different experimental groups in
different doses in Gallus domesticus. After the experimentation duration the blood serum was collected from the animals. The synthesized proteins
(antibodies) in the serum samples were identified by SDS PAGE
electrophoresis. Different protein bands such as 66, 97, 116 KDa proteins were
identified in all experimental and control groups. 18.4 KDa and 19 KDa proteins were synthesized as antibodies by the experimental animals against snake venom. |
