Fig 4. Inhibition of the hemorrhagic activity of B. jararaca (BiV) venom by extracts of K. brasiliensis (Kb) (A) and K pinnata (Kp) (B) in post-treatment protocol.

BjV was injected s.c. in the ventral region of 5 mice before treatement with extract (500 mg/kg, i.p.). Three hours after venom injection, the skin was removed and weighed. The columns represent the mean ± SEM (n = 5). ***p<0.001 compared to venom alone (one-way ANOVA followed by the Tukey’s test).

Fig 5. Inhibition of B. jararaca (BjV) venom-induced hemoglobin accumulation by extracts of K. brasiliensis (Kb) (A) and K. pinnata (Kp) (B) in post-treatment protocol.

The percentage of activity presented was calculated as: [(Hemoglobin content in animals receiving venom plus extract ÷ Hemoglobin content in animals receiving venom alone) x 100]. Values expressed as mean ± SEM (n = 5). *p<0.05 and ***p<0.001 compared to venom alone (BjV) (100% of activity) (one-way ANOVA followed by the Tukey’s test).

In the figure title of Fig 6, the word Brasiliensis should be lowercase. Please see the corrected caption here.

Fig 6. Inhibition of the edematogenic activity of B. jararaca venom (BjV) by extracts of K. brasiliensis (Kb) (A) and K. pinnata (Kp) (B) in pre-treatment protocol.

BjV was injected i.pl. in the right hind paw of mice pre-treated i.p. with different extracts. Paw thickness was measured during 120 min after venom injection. Edema was expressed as the increase in paw thickness calculated as the percentage difference between the paw thickness after (at respective time) and before (basal values) venom injection. The points represent the mean ± SEM (n = 5). *p<0.05, **p<0.01 and ***p<0.001 compared to the group receiving venom alone along with the i.p. injection of 5% castor oil in PBS (Two-way ANOVA followed by the Bonferroni test).
