| Abstract Background Snakes of the genus Bothrops, popularly known as pit vipers, are responsible for most cases of snakebite in Brazil. Within this genus, Bothrops jararacussu and B. jararaca deserve special attention due to the severity of their bites and for inhabiting densely populated areas. Regarding the treatment of snakebites by Bothrops jararacussu, questions have been raised about the effectiveness of the specific bothropic antivenom in neutralizing myotoxic effects; however, there are no accurate data for humans. Thus, the development of a differential diagnostic kit for this species would be of great interest because it provides, for healthcare professionals, a tool that would allow us to determine whether the accident was caused by B.... |

| A capture enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), which detects LT-I toxin produced by enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli strains, has beendeveloped. This capture assay was performed using the IgG enriched fraction of anti-LT-I antiserum and IgG2b anti-LT-I monoclonal antibody and allowed a clear distinction between E. coli LT-I - producing and non-producing strains. The estimated accuracy of the assay is 78% for sensitivity, 94% for specificity and 92% for efficiency. Thus, the capture immunoassayis a sensitive tool for detection of E. coli, which produces heat-labile enterotoxin, and is suitable for use in clinical laboratories and epidemiological surveys in developing world. |

| Apresentam-se os resultados preliminares do levantamento da flora vascular que ocorre em lugares rochosos do Morro Sapucaia e Morro do Cabrito, Rio Grande do Sul, Brasil. O trabalho em andamento inclui observações sobre o hábito, habitat, fenologiae distribuição geográfica das espécies, e uma descrição sucinta da vegetação. Foram encontradas, até novembro de 1986, 71 espécies de plantas vasculares, sendo 28 de pteridófitas e 43 de angiospermas |
