Ephedra (sea grape, ma-huang, yellow horse) ephedra sinica Relieves colds, improves respiratory function, headaches, diuretic effects 3heart rate, psychosis l hedra should only be used after consulting with the physician. Many restrictions apply and the herb can cause serious reactions. Do not use with cardiac glycosides, monoamine oxidase inhibitor halothane, guanethidine, (MAOIs) or oxytocin. Do not use with 3. John s wort or in weight loss formulas. [Pg.660]

Ephedra has also been called Brigham tea, desert tea, herbal fen-phen, joint fir, Mexican tea. Mormon tea, natural ecstasy, popotillo, sea grape, squaw tea, teamster tea, and yellow horse. The active component, ephedrine, was isolated in the 19th century and was... [Pg.74]

Prehistoric cave painting of a red horse from Lascaux. The colours used in the painting were obtained from the local deposits of red and yellow ochres, i. e. iron oxides. Similar ochre deposits in Southern France are still mined for pigment production today. As colouring agents, iron oxides have served man more or less continuously for over 30,000 years. A major, modern technological application of these compounds (mainly in synthetic form) is as pigment. [Pg.687]

Berberine inhibits oxidative decarboxylation of yeast pyruvic acid (310) the same dose has, however, no effect upon aerobic glycolysis, Warburg s respiratory enzymes, indophenol oxidase, etc. Berberine and tetrahydroberberine have an inhibitory effect on oxidation of (+ )-alanine in rat kidney homogenates (498). Berberine and palmatine show a specific inhibitory effect upon cholinesterase in rabbit spleen and on pseudocholinesterase in horse serum (499). Berberine inhibits cellular respiration in ascitic tumors and even in tissue cultures (500-502). The specific toxic effect of berberine on the respiration of cells of ascitic tumors in mice was described (310). The glycolysis was not found to be affected, but the uptake of oxygen was smaller. Fluorescence was used in order to demonstrate berberine in cellular granules. Hirsch (503) assumed that respiration is inhibited by the effect of berberine on the yellow respiratory enzymes. Since the tumorous tissue contains a smaller number of yellow respiratory enzymes than normal tissue it is more readily affected by berberine. Subcutaneous injections of berberine, palmatine, or tetrahydropalmatine significantly reduce the content of ascorbic acid in the suprarenals, which is not affected by hypophysectomy (504). [Pg.234]

Mutations have been exploited by man for commercial purposes. Animal and plant breeders use mutations to produce new or improved species of crops and livestock. Careful breeding in this manner has spawned all the different species of dogs and horses we know today. It has resulted in crops that are resistant to drought or insecta and whose yield is improved. Controlled mutation and breeding has produced goldfish, yellow roses, and Concord grapes. [Pg.474]

The tetracyclines are amphoteric antimicrobial agents that can form salts with bases or acids (see Chs 1 and 2). Oxytetracycline is a bitter, yellow, odorless crystalline powder. The base is slightly water soluble and the hydrochloride is readily water soluble and is typically administered to horses by slow i.v. injection. It is effective at 5.5 mg/kg once daily for 2 days or more in the treatment of B. equi but is unlikely to completely clear this infection. It is, therefore, used for premunition. Rapid i.v. injection may cause a precipitous drop in blood pressure and collapse owing to the effects of calcium chelation on the myocardium. Intramuscular injection causes objectionable local reactions in horses and should be avoided. Oral administration may be more... [Pg.52]

A characteristic of some Horse mushrooms (Agaricus species) is that they turn yellow when bruised. Examination of the yellow-staining mushroom Agaricus xanthoderma has yielded the azaquinone agaricone (7.36), which is formed by aerial oxidation of a leucophenol in the damaged tissue. [Pg.136]

The naturally occurring llavones are yellow and are very widely distributed in plants. They accumulate in almost any part of a plant, from the roots to the flower petals. Unlike the anthocyanins, which are too reactive and short-lived, the much more stable llavones have, from time immemorial, been used as dyes, for they impart various shades of yellow to wool. As an example, the inner bark of one of the North American oaks, Quercus velutina, was a commercial material known as quercitron bark and much used in dyeing it contains quercetrin. The corresponding aglycone, quercetin, is one of the most widely occurring flavones, found, for example, in Chrysanthemum and Rhododendron species, horse chestnuts, lemons, onions and hops. [Pg.642]

The earliest report seen in Western literature for the use of soybean seed for animal feed was by Le Comte (1697). All the Northern and Western Provinces (in China) bear wheat, barley, several kinds of millet, and tobacco, with black and yellow pease, with which they feed horses as we do with oats. Bretschneider (1898) concurs that black and yellow peas to which Le Comte refers are varieties of the soybean. [Pg.23]
