What is gramine

  • Gramine is an indole alkaloid present in some plants such as from Phalaris, Phargmites, and Arundo spp. It has been claimed to be potentially toxic, however recent evidence shows it to have very low toxicity (relative to other alkaloids such as tryptamines) and to have potential antimutagenic effects - it is found most commonly in Avena sativa (Oats). [1] [2]

Chemical and physical properties

[Gramine (3-(dimethylaminomethyl)-indole) properties http://wiki.dmt-nexus.me/Psychedelic_Compounds_Chemical_and_Physical_Properties#Gramine]

Extractions

Gramine is not soluble in naphtha or petroleum ether, therefore extractions using these solvents will not contain gramine. It is soluble in ethanol.

Analysis
