Atropine extract

[BeyondCrazy]

Hi, quick question.

If one was using acetone to extract Atropine from the belladonna plant, would the Atropine be in the acetone or the plant material?

My searches were contradictory, various sources state Atropine will extract into nonpolar solvents and other sources claim it will extract into the polar solvents.

I know Atropine extracts from the plant material into boiling water, and like water Acetone is polar but....... that’s boiling.

Appreciate any help...... Thanks.

You have to realise that tropane-threads are always received with a bit of scepticism around here.

Like i said before...deadly in mere micrograms. A deadly dose of atropine would even be hardly visible to the naked eye, and a dose that would cause permanent braindamage could be like..invisible to the naked eye.

An amateur chemist playing around with substances like tropanes or strychnine scores high on the russian-roulette scale... or darwin award potential as some put it in a less sympathetic way.

Would you please provide a link for the lethal "microgram" dose? the lethal dose was stated as "10mg" where I checked it, don't know if it was meant 10 "miligrams" or "micrograms" though.

For beauty..... It’s a girl’s thing.
I’ve got these tiny little pupils and I think they look scary.... lol. :lol:

Beauty can be a good thing to search for.

However, to use a wise mans words: when vanity is sought after by using highly dangerous extracted tropanes I think this is at odd with the theme of spiritual and personal growth that we seek her at the DMT-Nexus. For that I'm closing this thread down, I hope you understand.


Kind regards,
