The metalloproteinase and neurotoxin epitopes showed to be different from each other showing a statistical dissemblance for a confidence interval of 95% for the amino acids R, K, M and Y (Table 2, column 1). Also when compared these epitopes to their respective proteins they showed differences for the amino acids R, Q, V and M for metalloproteinases (Table 2, column 4) and D and C for neurotoxins (Table 2, column 5).
