FIRE ANT VENOM. “The overall average venom dose was 0.56 mg…Thus, a typical worker contains around 32 average venom doses, each of which represents 3.1% of her total venom supply. At the initial venom synthesis rate of 1.17 mg/mm3/day, it takes a worker with a headwidth of 1 mm about 11.5 h after eclosion to generate one average venom dose (0.56 mg).”
