OCA15. Annotation of the output with contextual information concerning the description of creative process and the content of the research/artistic/other activity, etc.Intraspecific variations in snake venom composition have been extensively documented, contributing to the diverse clinical effects observed in envenomed patients. Understanding these variations is essential for developing effective snakebite management strategies and targeted antivenom therapies. We aimed to comprehensively investigate venoms from three distinct populations of N. mossambica from Eswatini, Limpopo, and KwaZulu-Natal regions in Africa in terms of their protein composition and reactivity with three commercial antivenoms (SAIMR polyvalent, EchiTAb+ICP, and Antivipmyn Africa).

OCA18. Characteristics of the output's impact on socio-economic practiceThe output has a significant impact on socio-economic practice, particularly in the fields of public health, clinical medicine, and pharmaceutical development of antivenoms. In healthcare practice, it contributes to a more accurate understanding of venom composition variability among different populations of Naja mossambica, which is crucial for the correct diagnosis and treatment of patients following envenomation. The findings may help physicians better estimate the effectiveness of available antivenoms and optimize therapeutic approaches depending on the geographic origin of the venom.In public health, the research supports more efficient planning of antivenom supply and their regional targeting, which can reduce mortality and complications associated with snakebites, particularly in African countries with a high incidence of envenomation. From a pharmaceutical perspective, the results provide important information for the development and testing of both polyvalent and specific antivenoms, as well as for evaluating their efficacy against different populations of the same species. This may lead to improved quality in antivenom production and more efficient use of resources. Economically, the output contributes to reducing costs associated with ineffective treatments and hospitalizations, thereby increasing the efficiency of healthcare systems.
OCA19. Characteristics of the output and related activities' impact on the educational processThe output and related research activities have a significant educational impact, particularly in the fields of biomedicine, toxicology, veterinary medicine, and pharmaceutical sciences. First, they expand students’ theoretical knowledge of intraspecific variability in snake venoms and its clinical implications. The specific case of different populations of Naja mossambica enables a better understanding of how geographic variation influences venom composition, its biological activity, and antivenom efficacy. At the same time, the output supports the development of practical skills in interpreting proteomic data, comparing the reactivity of biological samples with commercial antivenoms, and evaluating their effectiveness. Students thus learn to connect laboratory findings with clinical and therapeutic contexts. An important educational benefit is also the strengthening of critical thinking and the ability to analyze complex biological systems, where small variations in venom composition can lead to significant differences in treatment outcomes. The related activities further promote interdisciplinary education by linking toxicology, immunology, proteomics, and public health. This contributes to the modernization of teaching and better prepares students to address real clinical and research challenges in the field of envenomation.
