    Solenopsin is a lipophilic alkaloid with the molecular formula C 17 H 35 N found in the venom of fire ants (Solenopsis). It is considered the primary toxin in the venom [2] and may be the component responsible for the cardiorespiratory failure in people who experience excessive fire ant stings. [3]

    This makes many experts put some children on fire ant venom immunotherapy, while others do not. [54] [65] The recommended maintenance dose is between 0.5 mL of a 1:100 w/v 1:10 w/v WBE. [66] For fire ant venom immunotherapy, the most common maintenance dose is 0.5 mL of a 1:200 (wt/vol) dilution. [67]

    These insect alkaloids can be efficiently extracted by solvent immersion of live fire ants [7] or by centrifugation of live ants [185] followed by silica-gel chromatography purification. [186] Tracking and dosing the extracted solenopsin ant alkaloids has been described as possible based on their absorbance peak around 232 nanometers. [187]
