What's the difference between nonpoisonous and venomous?
Nonpoisonous
Definition:
Example Sentences:
(1) The purified protein inhibits papain and bromelain, does not correct the clotting time of a kininogen-depleted human plasma, and does not affect the clotting time of plasma from Waglerophis merremii, a nonpoisonous snake; the same type of inhibitor was found in this nonpoisonous snake.

(6) Similarly, the linear relationship between dye fluorescence and psi p was not altered by depolarization of psi m. Valinomycin, a K+ ionophore, caused a psi p-dependent increase in fluorescence in control (nonpoisoned) synaptosomes, but did not alter fluorescence of poisoned synaptosomes except when the extracellular concentration of K+ ([K+]e) was 2 mM, in which case valinomycin hyperpolarized psi p by about 5 mV.
(7) Conversely, when the PCP vehicle was given prior to the saccharin-LiCl pairing and PCP prior to a nonpoisoned exposure to saccharin, other subjects avoided saccharin consumption following the vehicle injection and readily consumed saccharin after an injection of PCP.
(8) Change of residence during the last 6 months was much commoner among families of poisoned children than of nonpoisoned.
(9) Dietary vitamin E status had no significant influence on the increased mechanical fragility of erythrocytes from nonpoisoned rats caused by exposure to lead in vitro.
(10) When PCP was given prior to the pairing of saccharin with LiCl (and the PCP vehicle prior to a nonpoisoned exposure to the same saccharin solution), rats rapidly acquired the discrimination, avoiding saccharin consumption following PCP and consuming saccharin following the vehicle after only three conditioning trials.
(11) The most common situation resulting in snakebite was erroneous identification of the snake as the nonpoisonous scarlet king snake.
(12) There were 45 injuries among the 190 children in the poison control group and 31 injuries among 209 children in the nonpoison control group.
(13) For a 6-year period of time from January 1st, 1980 to December 31st, 1985, 503 adult patients presented to a prehospital system in non-traumatic, nonpoisoned, cardiorespiratory arrest with an initial rhythm of electromechanical dissociation.
(14) Thus, the depolarization of psi(mc) might not account for the entire Deltapsi(ms), observed in nonpoisoned tissue.
(15) To determine if children from households that call a poison center are at increased risk of nonpoisoning injury.
Venomous
Definition:
(a.) Full of venom; noxious to animal life; poisonous; as, the bite of a serpent may be venomous.
(a.) Having a poison gland or glands for the secretion of venom, as certain serpents and insects.
(a.) Noxious; mischievous; malignant; spiteful; as, a venomous progeny; a venomous writer.
Example Sentences:

(2) Four new monochain phospholipases were purified from the Oxyuranus scutellatus (taipan) venom.
(3) The antibodies were used for identifying cross-reacting proteins in individual C. s. scutulatus and other Crotalus venoms and to isolate Mojave toxin.
(4) Analysis of the product by equilibrium density centrifugation and processive hydrolysis with snake venom phosphodiesterase suggested that the noncomplementary nucleotides were present in phosphodiester linkage.
(5) The structure of the oligonucleotide-adenylate was determined by enzymatic digestion with base-nonspecific nuclease and venom phosphodiesterase.
(6) Admission venom levels also correlated with the extent of local swelling and the occurrence of tissue necrosis at the site of the bite.
(7) omega-Conotoxin GVIA is a peptide purified from the venom of the marine snail, Conus geographus, that specifically blocks voltage-sensitive calcium channels in neurons.
(8) The potential use of ancrod, a purified isolate from the venom of the Malaysian pit viper, Agkistrodon rhodostoma, in decreasing the frequency of cyclic flow variations in severely stenosed canine coronary arteries and causing thrombolysis of an acute coronary thrombus induced by a copper coil was evaluated.
(9) We developed a continuous spectrophotometric assay of the phospholipase A2 activity specific for choline plasmalogen using rat liver lysoplasmalogenase and horse liver alcohol dehydrogenase as coupling enzymes and Naja naja venom phospholipase A2 as a source of the phospholipase A2 activity.
(10) Two polypeptides (protein S5C1 and toxin S5C10) were purified from Dendroaspis jamesoni kaimosae venom.
(11) Weighed amounts of lyophilized venom from each snake were compared chronologically for variation in isoelectric focusing patterns, using natural and immobilized gradients.
(12) The presence of proteins antigenically related to Bothrops asper myotoxins in various snake venoms, mainly from South America, was investigated by using polyclonal and monoclonal antibodies.
(13) Phospholipase A2 from cobra venom (Naja naja naja) is a homogeneous, heat-stable enzyme that has a monomer molecular weight of only 11,000 and contains one histidine and one tryptophan residue.
(14) Surprisingly, whole-rat envenomation, using very large doses of venom, produced little dye leakage even though obvious symptoms of neurotoxic action were observed.
