Laboratory Manual for the Detection of Poisons and Powerful Drugs (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Excerpt from Laboratory Manual for the Detection of Poisons and Powerful Drugs, Authorized Translation Additional matter in Detection of Poisons has made the fourth edition considerably larger than the third. The seven chapters now comprised in the book have been entirely revised, but the first three chapters remain unchanged in arrangement. Chapter I treats of poisons volatile with steam. Organic poisons, especially the alkaloids, form the subject of Chapter II. Hydrastine and veronal, introduced into this chapter for the first time, have been incorporated into the Stas-Otto process. Chapter III deals with metallic poisons. The toxic substances included in Chapter IV find no place in the three groups just mentioned. As they seldom appear in toxicological examinations, they are of theoretical rather than of practical significance. The following members of this group have been introduced for the first time, namely, cantharidin, cytisine, ergot, papaverine, pilocarpine, saponin substances, solanine, thebaine, and the toxalbumins, ricin, abrin and crotin. Chapter Vhas to do with special qualitative and quantitative methods such as the quantitative estimation of phosphorus in phosphorated oils; the electrolytic detection and estimation of arsenic; the biological test for arsenic; the destruction of organic matter and detection of arsenic by A. Gautier and G.Lockemann; Karl Th. Momer sestimation of minute quantities of arsenic; methods of estimating alkaloids by H.Matthes, H.Thoms and A.H. Gordin. This chapter also includes A. J.J. Vandevelde sestimation of the toxic action of organic compounds by means of blood haemolysis. Chapter VI takes up the estimation of alkaloids and other active principles in raw materials (drugs) and in their preparations. Pharmacopoeial as well as other estimations such as that of nicotine in tobacco, caffeine in tea, coffee, kola preparations, etc., pilocarpine in jaborandum leaves, piperine in pepper.
