Brief overview - What is Tryptamine?

Chemical and physical properties

Pharmacology, toxicity and general safety

Plants containing Tryptamine

Tryptamine is widespread with occurrence in both plants and animals. It is often as a trace alkaloid Only a few representative instances of occurrence are included below:

Smith 1977b lists occurrences in 26 species in 12 genera.
