This is the first case report of imported fire ants invading a building and aggressively attacking a human being, resulting in multiple stings. This case illustrates that, although the venom has a high LD50 in mice, it does not induce toxic systemic effects in humans when the venom is introduced intradermally.
这是关于入侵建筑物并对人类发起攻击、导致多人被蜇的外来火蚁的首例病例报告。该病例表明,尽管毒液对小鼠的半数致死剂量很高,但经皮内注射时,它不会在人类身上诱发全身性毒性反应。
