This is a repost from another thread, i just wanted to get somefeedback since i couldnt post on the other thread; Can anyone decipher this?
"Hey everyone, I just discovered an amazing new source of nicotine. It is mentioned in a book called, “Solanaceae and Convolvulaceae: Secondary Metabolites:[…]” ByProf. Dr. Eckart Eich and published by Springer.
Page 91. “Both alkaloids were detected as constituents in the leaves of a large number of specimen of D. hopwoodii by Bottomley et al. (1945). A comprehensive study of root and leaf collections of this species led, […] The leaves may show large concentrations of nicotine (up to 5.3%) […] This indicates that the leaves of D. hopwoodii are qualitatively and quantitatively equivalent to those of Nicotiana tabacum with regard to the nicotinoid profile. ”
D. Hopwoodii or Dubosia Hopwoodii is the fancy name for the Austrailian Pituri shrub. The nicotine content is comparable to cultivated tobacco so nicotine is not just a tobacco related product anymore.
The FDA should know about this discovery."
