Conduct an experiment to demonstrate how proteins such as venoms can be denatured.
Toxicologists report that venoms represent some of the most complex chemical compounds in nature.
There are many fish species with spines capable of injecting venom. This ability is nearly always a protective mechanism, but is occasionally used for incapacitating prey. The spines may be concealed, as in the stonefish, or displayed, as in the lionfish, as a warning to predators. Many venoms are actually proteins and as such can be denatured through special techniques including heat treatment. Save the white in the beaker.
