Abstract

In Algeria and like many other countries of the world and in the absence of other effective therapeutic remedies. Antidepressant serum remains the only way to neutralize these toxins and fight these disorders despite sometimes-unsatisfactory results. In order to contribute subsidize to the improvement of these results; we considered it useful to study the factors influencing the composition and the concentration of the toxins to know the behavior of the antiscorpionic serum on these toxins. To do this, we tested the ability of polyspecific antisorpional serum and determined whether enough antivenom was administered. Comparative titrations were performed separately on the venoms of female scorpions (Androctonus australis hoctor, Buthacus arenicola and Androctonus Amoreuxi) caught in three different geographical region in El Oued: Debila, Reguiba and Hassi Khalifa.
