The world's most exclusive spider egg wrap makes the researcher happy

Egg laying spider funnel with the most dangerous venom in the world of an Australian resident makes the serum production experts excited.

A man in the city of Newcastle, New South Wales, Australia discovered egg-wrapped spider funnel network in the yard. Instead of screaming and burning eggs, the man reacted wisely to inform Australian Reptile Park and ask them to deal with it, Science Alert reported today.

The funnel spider, the world's most toxic spider living in Australia, is very aggressive and possesses venom that can kill an adult in 15 minutes. Although there are many cases of funnel-biting spider bites every year, there have been no deaths in many decades, mostly due to poison-resistant serum available.

If the bite of the funnel spider web is not fatal, it can still make the victim seriously ill. Symptoms include throbbing pain around the mouth and tongue, goose bumps, salivation, eye swelling, vomiting, muscle spasms, pulmonary effusion, and hypertension.

The egg-covered spiders were full of wiggling funnel-web spiders that made researchers at the reptile park extremely excited because they could collect their venom and take them to the lab to produce serum. Dogs, cats, and other non-primates have higher resistance to the funnel spider's venom than humans, and can survive when the venom hit 100 times the lethal venom. .

To produce serum, the venom after harvest is injected into rabbits. The injection of venom does not kill or harm animals due to their high toxic resistance, but only stimulates their bodies to develop antibodies against venom. The antibody is then collected from the rabbit in the form of a serum and prepared into serum. When injected into the body, this serum will combine with venom and neutralize venom.

The venom of Sydney funnel spider web (Atrax robustus) is highly appreciated by scientists because they can use this kind of venom to produce the bite treatment serum of some funnel-web spiders. Large egg-coated golf balls filled with this small Sydney funnel web with an amount of about 100 very useful with a serum production project which mainly relies on donated spiders to maintain supply. Australian reptile park will raise the number of spiders until adulthood and put them into the program to extract venom.
