Learn about the most expensive liquid in the world
With the development of science, and the discovery of multiple and useful uses of scorpion, the liquid of this animal has become the most expensive in the world.
The "Deathstalker" scorpion is the most dangerous type of scorpion ever, and it is also the most expensive, with a price of a gallon of $ 39 million.
Many may think that "scorpion" is a profitable business, but it is actually a process that requires a lot of time and effort. The toxin is extracted manually from each scorpion.
Each time, the amount of venom that can be drawn from a single scorpion is about 2 milligrams, meaning that if a person wants to get a gallon of poison, it means that the toxin must be extracted 2.64 million times.
With the difficulty of the process, researchers in Morocco have devised a device to extract venom from scorpions, working remotely, and is able to extract the poison from 4 hands at a time, according to the site, "Business Insider."
It is noteworthy that the scorpion poison is very important, and is used in the medical field, as the use of "chlorotoxin" in the poison treatment of brain cancer and spinal cord.
