Although antivenom is often used and perceived effective to treat this type of snakebite, it is costly and associated with adverse events and specific diagnostics for this type of snakebite are lacking. We sought to improve diagnostics in <em>V. berus</em> envenomation by using currently available tools, including evaluating urinary albumin as a biomarker for snakebite-associated kidney injury. Additionally, we planned to adapt a method from human medicine for venom detection in clinical samples from bitten dogs and describe the composition of Norwegian <em>V. berus</em> venom. Serum biochemical analytes and urine albumin (ELISA) were measured in samples collected at 24 hours and two weeks after bite in 29 envenomated dogs. An adapted ELISA was applied to detect venom in urine and plasma collected from 25 cases between presentation and 24 hours after bite, using a commercial antivenom as the capture and detection antibody. Proteomic analysis of venom collected from 11 <em>V. berus</em> was performed using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. Elevated serum C-reactive protein, creatine kinase, and aspartate aminotransferase were common for the case group. Although no case dogs showed acute kidney injury with azotemia and/or reduced urine output, elevated urinary albumin concentrations may indicate early or mild kidney injury in some case dogs. The venom ELISA detected positive signals in both plasma and urine for up to 24 hours after bite. However, with false positives detected in plasma, urine seemed to be the most appropriate body fluid for this assay. The venom proteome identified L-amino acid oxidases as the dominant component. In conclusion, serum biochemical and urinary albumin analyses are useful tools for evaluating canine <em>V. berus</em> envenomation. The venom ELISA is proposed as a promising tool for studies of <em>V. berus</em> envenomation and future diagnostic test development. Venom from the studied Norwegian <em>V. berus</em> was shown to differ considerably from previous reports from other countries, implying geographical variation in composition.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":23144,"journal":{"name":"Topics in companion animal medicine","volume":"63 ","pages":"Article 100930"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2024-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142694086","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
