tCoHaM Posted October 16, 2005 Posted October 16, 2005 I was just wondering... does anyone know if Bufotoxin is soluble in water?
Mokele Posted October 16, 2005 Posted October 16, 2005 No idea, but if this is in the context of "how do I get it off my hands?", I've found that soap and water work just fine, even after I've handled large Marine toads. Mokele
tCoHaM Posted October 18, 2005 Author Posted October 18, 2005 Yeah, ok, I'll keep that in mind, thanks. See, we have this experiment and we want to know if the toxin would still work, even just a little, when combined with water... So, you've handled Marine toads... did you uhm... say, extract the poison or something?
Mokele Posted October 18, 2005 Posted October 18, 2005 The problem is that bufotoxin, as far as I understand, is less a toxin and more a name for a family of toxins. And my experience with the toads was purely incidental; they were an invasive pest at my research site. Why do you want to know?
tCoHaM Posted October 26, 2005 Author Posted October 26, 2005 We've got a project concerning Bufotoxin...
Mokele Posted October 27, 2005 Posted October 27, 2005 "A project", very helpful. Care to give a more detailed description of your project and its goals? Mokele
