In this paper, the nematocyst venom of jellyfish crambionella orsini were fractionated by size-exclusion and anion-exchange chromatography. crambionella orsini is famous jellyfish in Persian gulf. The results of mentioned methods has been investigated. The crambionella orsini venoms has hemolytic activity, as the other species.After extraction of nematocyst venom, the crude venom has been partially purification by sephadex G-200 gel filtration and DEAE anion exchange chromatography. Protein elution was monitored by uv detection at 280 nm. For determine the hemolytic fraction, every fraction were injected to 3 mice via the tail vein. Finally, all data from both chromatography methods were compared. The gel filtrations first pick and the first and second pick of anion exchange chromatography showed hemolytic activity.Determination the appropriate method for purification of this venom can help to find a comprehensive method for another marine venom especially jellyfish venoms and eventually may be help to find specific antidote for jellyfish stings of these species.
