| spitting | 1. Mucus and other fluids formed in the air passages and upper food passages (the mouth), and expelled by coughing. See: sputum. 2. The act of spitting; the expelling from the mouth of saliva, mucus, and other material from the air or upper food passages. Synonym: spitting. (05 Mar 2000) |

| cobra | A genus of poisonous snakes of the subfamily elapinae of the family elapidae. There are six recognised species, all inhabiting africa except the asiatic (indian) cobra, naja naja. Some species "spit" their venom into the eyes of their "enemies". So-called spitting cobras show a high degree of accuracy in aiming for the eyes. The ringhals, the most highly specialised of the spitting cobras, is limited to southern africa. Its spray destroys eye tissue and can cause blindness; its bite can cause death. (moore: poisonous snakes of the world, 1980, p80) (12 Dec 1998) |
| cobra neurotoxins | Toxins, contained in cobra (naja) venom that block cholinergic receptors; two specific proteins have been described, the small (short, type I) and the large (long, type II) which also exist in other elapid venoms. (12 Dec 1998) |
| cobra toxin | A polypeptide of 62 residues; action on cells is similar to that of melittin in that it promotes disruption of membranes; used as an investigational antirheumatic agent. Synonym: cobra toxin, direct lytic factor of cobra venom. (05 Mar 2000) |
| cobra venom cofactor | <enzyme> A glycine-rich, heat-labile beta-glycoprotein found in blood. It is a proactivator of complement 3 in the alternate pathway of complement activation. Factor b is converted by factor d to c3 convertase. Registry number: EC 3.4.21.47 (12 Dec 1998) |
| cobra venom factor | A component of cobra venom that renders C3 proactivator (properdin factor B) susceptible to factor D of the properdin system, leading to activation of C3 and other components of complement and lysis of unsensitised erythrocytes. (05 Mar 2000) |
| cobra venoms | Venoms from snakes of the genus naja (family elapidae). They contain many specific proteins that have cytotoxic, haemolytic, neurotoxic, and other properties. Like other elapid venoms, they are rich in enzymes. They include cobramines and cobralysins. (12 Dec 1998) |
| direct lytic factor of cobra venom | A polypeptide of 62 residues; action on cells is similar to that of melittin in that it promotes disruption of membranes; used as an investigational antirheumatic agent. Synonym: cobra toxin, direct lytic factor of cobra venom. (05 Mar 2000) |

| spitting cobra |
The spitting cobra refers to a group of cobras that spit venom when defending themself against predators. The venom of the spitting cobras though not generally fatal, often causes blindness and/or facial/body scars. Despite the name these snakes don't spit. They rather spray the venom, using air expelled from the lungs to pump the toxin from their fangs (much like a squirt gun). When cornered, it can "spit" up to 2 meters. ...
