Plant-derived neurotoxic psychodysleptics affect peripheral neural functions and motor coordination, sometimes accompanied by delirium, stupor, trance states, and vomiting. Prominent among these toxins are the pyrollizidines from peyote. Also included are erythrionones from the coral tree and quinolizidines from the mescal bean (see Figure 19.2).

No information on the safety of Indian coral tree in pregnancy or lactation was identified in the scientific or traditional literature. Although this review did not identify any concerns for use while pregnant or nursing, safety has not been conclusively established. 

No information on the safety of Indian coral tree during pregnancy or lactation was identified. 

The LD50 of the total alkaloids of Indian coral tree intra-peritoneally administered to rats is 127.8 mg/kg (Ghosal et al. 1972).

When a new piece of a tree or a coral grows, it takes carbon (including from the atmosphere or ocean. The concentration of a tree takes in is smaller than that in the atmosphere on a per-gram of carbon basis, because of carbon isotope fractionation. In age calculation, this effect has to be accounted for. Once the piece of the tree stops exchanging carbon with the atmosphere, simply decays away (Figure 5-1). Hence, from the measured concentration in the piece of the tree at present, the age (time elapsed since the piece stopped exchange with the atmosphere) can be calculated using Equation 5-11 ... 

The green man is surprised by such a display of confidence, and asks the farmer to tell him by which feature he could pick up the living so quickly. The farmer takes two objects at random - mule and hen - and say that they are alive because are capable of movement , but the green man is not convinced. Coral and tree do not move but are definitely alive. At that point the farmer suggests irritability , or the ability to react to stimuli , but again the answer fails. It is true... 

Inspired by the beauty and efficiency with which Nature controls macroscopic three-dimensional space as seen in the branching networks of trees [58], coral [59], and physiological structures [60, 61], one of us (D.A.T.) sought to mimic such branched assemblies at the molecular level. Analysis of parameters involved in synthetically mimicking such branching included the following hypothetical steps (see Fig. 9) ... 

While a number of deckboard incubations of seawater samples show an increase in Fe(II) on irradiation [98,136,151], only a few studies have examined the change in iron speciation in situ as a function of time of day. Waite and Szymczak [152] measured the concentration of iron in waters overlying a coral reef on One Tree Island on Australia s Great Barrier Reef and observed... 

The article reports investigations of the topological properties of benzenoid molecules which the author has performed in the last 20 years. Emphasis is given on recent developments and other scientists contributions to these researches. Topics covered in recent books and reviews are avoided. The article outlines spectral properties, some aspects of the study of Kekule and Clar structures, the Wiener index as well as a number of graphs derived from benzenoid systems (inner dual, excised internal structure, Clar graph, Gutman tree, coral and its dual). 

I have not come across Black Pyrites myself, and so have been unable to test the above statement. Possibly Pliny is referring to Black Cobalt, which possesses the quality in question. Solinus corroborates Pliny, who also terms Coral Pyrites, because fire can be derived from it. On the same ground he institutes a comparison with Chalcedony and common Flint, while others identify our Cuprine Slate with Pyrites. This Stone is very susceptible to impressions when under the earth. Sometimes it has representations of fishes, serpents, and tree-crickets sometimes an elaborate picture of a cock with drooping feathers and double comb. 

I say that It touches a man that his blood is sea vrater and bis tears are salt, that the seed of his loins is scarcely different from the same cells in a seaweed, and that of the stuff like his bones are coral made. I say that physical and biologic law lies down with him, and wakes when a child stirs in the womb, and that the sap in a tree, upnishing in the spring, and the smell of the loam, where the bacteria bestir themselves in darkness, and the path of the sun in the heaven, these are feels of first importance to his mental conclusions, and that a man who goes in no consciousness of them is a drifter and a dreamer, without a home or any contact with reality. ...
