Anavenom
Definition
An animal venom (from a snake, scorpion, bee) structurally modified through thermal or chemical treatment (usually with formaldehyde) to completely lose its direct destructive toxicity while keeping its antigenic power intact. This immunological substance is injected in controlled doses to stimulate the production of specific antibodies (antivenom) or for desensitizing allergic patients.
