Özet
Ege Üniversitesi Fen Fakültesi Biyoloji Bölümü Zooloji Anabilim Dalı'nda yürütülmekte olan bir çalışma esnasında, kuzey Kıbrıs'tan toplanan 75 cm uzunluğunda ergin erkek bir Koca engerek, Macrovipera lebetina lebetina (Linnaeus) tarafından kazara 40 yaşındaki erkek bir araştırmacı ısırılmıştır. Isırılmadan hemen sonra ortaya çıkan klinik belirtiler, fizyolojik ve biyokimyasal değişiklikler ile hastanın plazma proteinlerinin elektroforetik separasyonları burada sunulmuştur. Bir seri önemli semptomlar (ödem, hipotansif şok, hemoraji, doku nekrozu, melanodermi) ve albumin, globulin, albumin/globulin oranlarında kantitatif açıdan önemli farklılıklar gelişmiştir. Diğer taraftan kan yayma preparasyonlarından gerçekleştirilen ölçümler ve biyokimyasal sonuçlar RBC, MCV, MHV ve kan hücrelerinin normal boyutlarında düşüş, WBC de ise artış olduğunu göstermiştir
A researcher, a 40 year-old male, was bitten on his finger accidentally by a 75 cm long, adult male blunt-nosed viper, Macrovipera lebetina lebetina (Linnaeus) that had been collected from northern Cyprus during laboratory work in the Zoology Section, Biology De-partment of the Ege University Faculty of Science. The clinical signs, physiological and biochemical changes soon after the venomous bite by the blunt-nosed viper as well as the electrophoretic separation of plasma proteins of the patient have been presented here. Serious important symptoms (edema, hypotension shock, hemorrhage, tissue necrosis, and melanoderma) developed and major quantitative differences in the fractions of albumin, globulin and albumin/globulin ratios were detected. On the other hand, the measurements carried out in blood smears and biochemical results indicated the decrease in RBC, MCV, MHV and a decrease in the diameter of red blood cells, as well as an increase in WBC.
