Insecticides derived from natural sources include nicotine, rotenone, and pyrethrum. Nicotine is obtained from the dried leaves of Nicotiana tabacum and Nicotiana rustica. It is rapidly absorbed from mucosal surfaces the free alkaloid, but not the salt, is readily absorbed from the skin. Nicotine reacts with the acetylcholine receptor of the postsynaptic membrane (sympathetic and parasympathetic ganglia, neuromuscular junction), resulting in depolarization of the membrane. Toxic doses cause stimulation rapidly followed by blockade of transmission. These actions are described in Chapter 7 Cholinoceptor-Activating Cholinesterase-Inhibiting Drugs. Treatment is directed toward maintenance of vital signs and suppression of convulsions. 

It had been noted earlier33 that nornicotine (16) formed from [2-14C]ornithine in an excised root culture of Nicotiana rustica was apparently unequally labelled at C-2 and C-5, arguing for partial incorporation of the amino-acid without intervention of a symmetrical intermediate. The validity of this conclusion is seriously questioned by the recent observation that, in N. glutinosa plants, ornithine was incorporated into nornicotine (16) in the same way as into nicotine (15), i.e. symmetrically.31...

Another important factor in the development of an in vitro culture process is the release of the metabolites into the medium. The extent of secondary product release in hairy root cultures varies between species. In hairy root cultures of solanaceous species, numerous studies have clearly demonstrated that the secondary products are generally poorly released by the cells [64 89] and are stored in the cell s vacuoles, except in Nicotiana rustica in which 76 % of the nicotine produced by the roots is released into the culture medium [90],...
