“…The top aqueous layer from each tube was then removed and placed in a 10-ml beaker. A 3-mi volume of IN NaOH solution was added and the pH was adjusted to 10 with 10°/o sodium carbonate. The contents of each iO-mi beaker was poured into a clean i5-ml screw-cap glass test tube.…”

“…in the goats an increase in the specific activityof tr>'psin suggested an increase in the production of digestive enzv-mes (10) hours. In dairy cattle a decrease in milk production and body weight is also associated with slaframine toxicity.…”

“…This conformation provides a necessary requisite for binding to muscarinic acet\'!choiine receptors; resuuing in ptnasy mpathomimctic action (10,31,35). Evidence that acuvated slaframine might have an action similar to acet\-lcholine is provided by the obser\'ation that atropine counteracts the effects of both the toxin and acetylcholine.…”

“…However, when atropine was given before slaframine metabolite no contraction occurred; reinforcing the similarity to cholinergic action. The binding of slaframine to these receptors must be greater than atropine, because high levels of atropine will not displace slaframine either in vitro or in vivo (10,34,36).…”

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
