Russell’s Viper Venom (RVV) is a poisonous, lethal venom when injected, ingested or absorbed through broken or scratched skin. This product, as with all animal-based specimens, should be handled with proper laboratory safety procedures to minimize the risk of transmission of infectious disease. The products contain also Bovine Serum Albumin (BSA), which has been tested and found negative for Bovine IgG, Bluetongue Virus and Vesicular Stomatitis Virus. All BSA raw material was collected from animals in the USA in establishments registered with the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA). The animals received ante- and post- mortem inspections under a veterinarian’s supervision and were apparently free from infectious and contagious diseases. At no time during collection or processing was the material commingled with any other material of animal origin. During processing this material was subjected to a heat treatment at 65 ̊C for 3 hours, which meets the EU requirements for treated blood products.
