Another caritoxin, CTX III, has also been isolated using controlled autolysis of the tentacles through a nylon sieve, and separated using gel chromatography. This had a molecular weight in the range 20,000 to 25,000 daltons. The hemolytic activity of all three caritoxins was permanently and irreversibly inhibited by
