Amygdalin(29883-15-6)

Source l: Amygdalin (derived from the Greek word "almond"), also known as amygdalin, is a toxic cyanoside found in many plants, but the most striking is that it exists in the seeds of apricot, bitter almond, apple, peach and plum. Amygdalin is also found in other plum plants, including apricot and black cherry, as well as in the leaves, fruits and seeds of loquat.

Glycides The cells of many plant roots contain glycosides, which have no toxic effect when they are in the form of glycosides. The hydrolysis of glycogen releases toxic substances, which causes cell death. The amygdalin contained in peach root is a kind of carbohydrate. The amygdalin is hydrolyzed to produce two plant toxins, hydrocyanic acid and benzaldehyde. The formation and necrosis of peach root disease spots occurred in the adjacent parts that were punctured but not touched by the nematode; In addition, in vitro experiments have proved that the nematode can hydrolyze amygdalin.

Efficacy and effect: Almond contains 3% amygdalin, which is decomposed by enzyme to form hydrocyanic acid. The hydrocyanic acid is toxic but a small amount has sedative effect on the respiratory center, so the literature records that it has antitussive and antiasthmatic effect, and has the effect of killing typhoid bacillus and other bacteria. In recent years, scientific research at home and abroad has proved that hydrocyanic acid has anticancer effect, which is really a good product for human health.
