Coniine, one of the major toxic alkaloids present in poison hemlock ( Conium maculatum), occurs in two optically active forms. A comparison of the relative potencies of (+)- and (-)-coniine enantiomers has not been previously reported. In this study, we

Coniine, an alkaloid from Conium maculatum (poison hemlock), has been shown to be teratogenic in livestock. The major teratogenic outcome is arthrogryposis, presumably due to nicotinic receptor blockade. However, coniine has failed to produce arthrogryposis in rats or mice and

Hemlock was used as an analgesic in certain ethnopharmacological traditions and there has been no record about the antinociceptive effect of coniine which is the major alkaloid compound of Hemlock. The present study was undertaken to evaluate the possible antinociceptive
