英文摘要	Treatment of bacterial cultures with hemolymph collected from desert hairy scorpions (Hadrurus arizonensis Ewing, 1928, Hadruridae) resulted in a time- and concentration-dependent inhibition of bacterial proliferation. The hemolymph proved effective in inhibiting growth of both Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacterial species. Incubation of E. coli bacteria with hemolymph at different temperatures (20-4(degrees C) showed that the antibacterial effects increased from 20-30 degrees C, but the hemolymph was largely ineffective in killing the bacteria at 35 and 40 degrees C. Incubation of E. coli with hemolymph at 25 degrees C for different time periods revealed that the antibacterial activities were extremely rapid and resulted in killing of bacteria within 1-2 minutes of contact. Interestingly, the hemolymph exhibited no phenoloxidase enzyme activity, hemolytic activity against sheep red blood cells, or melanization activity, which is a common mechanism of immunity among many diverse arthropods. This study is the first characterization of immune function of hemolymph from any scorpion species.
