Abstract
In this study, polyacrylamide disc gel electrophoresis and densitometry analysis methods were used to analyze venom extracts of Vipera xanthina specimens of different lengths (35, 47 and 88 cm) collected from the same locality. The electropherograms of the venom protein samples showed age-dependent qualitative and quantitative variations.
Özet
Mevcut çalışmada aynı lokaliteden (Gümüldür-İzmir) toplanan üç farklı boyda (35 cm, 47 cm and 88 cm) Vipera xanthina'nın venom ekstraktları poliakrilamid jel elektroforezi ve densitometri yöntemleri ile analiz edilmiştir. İncelenen venom protein örneklerinin elektroferogramları arasında yaşa bağlı kalitatif ve kantitatif variasyonlar tespit edilmiştir.
