Abstract

Fibrin sealant comprises two components: the first is a serine proteinase extracted from snake venom (Bothrops neuwiedi pauloensis or Crotalus durissus terrificus); and the second is a fibrinogen-rich cryoprecipitate extracted from the blood of buffaloes, cattle or sheep. These two components are combined at the time of application making up fibrin with adhesive properties. A similar product with medical and veterinary applicability has been imported and is described in the review article attached (1). Three projects in partnership have been developed. The first is dedicated to the study, standardization and structural and functional characterization of serine proteinase molecules extracted from snake venom. The second is concerned with the certification of animals, which have never consumed animal protein, to produce cryoprecipitate. The third is dedicated to its applicability in the experimental glueing of nerves in the presence or absence of stem cells. A major problem is that the sealant production is not enough to supply basic, clinical, and experimental research. In addition, the complementary projects will attempt to extract bioactive anti-snake venom components from medicinal plants for experimental tests in animals. The institutional and multidisciplinary projects will allow the definitive certification of the two components of the fibrin sealant. (AU)
