Resumo

The lethal potency of 29 toxins from scorpion, sea anemone, snake and bee venoms was studied. Lethality following intracisternal injection of these toxins is considerably higher than following i.p. injection (except for the snake neurotoxins). This is of practical interest in the determination of the concentration of active toxins in a solution when only small amounts are available, as in the case of radiolabelled toxins.
