Análise morfológica da glândula de veneno de Apis mellifera L. (Hymenoptera: Apidae) em populações de Mato Grosso do Sul

Abstract: Morphologic Analysis of the Venom Gland of Apis mellifera L. (Hymenoptera: Apidae) in populations ofMato Grosso do Sul, BrazilABSTRACT -In Apis mellifera L. the venom gland (also called acid gland) is composed of secretory cells that surround a channel that opens into a reservoir devoid of musculature. This gland can present apical branching. In this study the frequency of branched venom glands in Africanized honeybee workers (A. mellifera) from eleven localities in the state of Mato Grosso do Sul was recorded… Show more

“…Em consequência disso, muita casos não são diagnosticados corretamente, ou não há compreensão do nível de comprometimento do organismo afetado (Machado et al, 2012, Maraschin, 2015. As abelhas possuem um órgão inoculador de veneno (ferrão) contendo glândulas veneníferas anexas (Arruda et al, 2007). Tais acidentes em animais domésticos podem resultar em reação de hipersensibilidade (reação alérgica) devido a picada ou em toxicose por várias picadas (reação tóxica sistêmica (Maraschin, 2015).…”

“…Among the proteins, phospholipase A2 and hyaluronidase enzymes are the main ones. Melitin is the main peptide and is the main component of bee venom, and apamin is also present, as well as phospholipids, some histamine and myoglobin, epinephrine, norepinephrine, aminobutyric acid, alpha-amino acids, glucose, fructose, complex ethers, phosphorus, calcium, and magnesium 2,6,7,8 .…”
