[Venomous animals and their venoms].
Animal venoms have aroused great interest during the past decades. During recent years, especially substances from marine animals have been investigated, not only in regard to their chemical structures but also to their biological relevance. Neurotoxic peptides from scorpions opened new aspects of action mechanisms on cell membranes; from snake venoms also ingredients have been obtained which serve as valuable pharmaceutical drugs.
