almond

Almond is rosaceae apricot seeds, divided into sweet almond and bitter apricot kernels, mainly contain protein, fat, sugar, trace laetrile. The composition of fat in the mainly oleic acid and linoleic acid.

Almond fruit length in a short distance (short spur), with the appearance of the immature. When ripe, green shell will split, and reveals the package in the rough shell nucleoli, nucleolus is yellow and there are a lot of small hole, the shell for hard wood. The almond for compressed ovoid, one end of the circle, the other end of the tip, covered with a thin brown skin. Nucleolus containing 20% protein, and do not contain starch, grinding, pressure, squeeze out the oil, about half of its weight, almond oil is light yellow, although there is no scent, but it is to soften the skin and the effect of beauty.

3. Armeniaca sibirica seeds contains about 4.84% of bitter apricot kernels glucoside.

4. The northeast apricot seeds contain bitter apricot kernels glucoside.

[pharmacological action] 1. Anti-inflammatory: almond globulin components KR - A40mg/kg, KR - B5mg KR/kg, albumin components - A0.5 mg/kg, AR - B0.5 mg/kg static pulse injection, diagonal carageen glue in rats caused by foot metatarsus swelling inhibition.

Part 2. Analgesia: almond globulin KR - A5mg/kg, KR - B5mg AR - A5mg/kg/kg, albumin component, the AR - B0.5 mg/kg intravenously, benzoquinone in mice body torsion test, shows that have analgesic action.

3. The role of hydrochloric acid in gastric juice: bitter apricot kernels glucoside enzyme hydrolysis can be stomach acid or bitter apricot kernel, produce prussic acid and benzaldehyde, ordinary about 1 g almond can produce 2.5 mg hydrocyanic acid. Hydrocyanic acid is a highly toxic substance, the person's lethal dose is about 0.05 g, benzaldehyde inhibits pepsin digestion. Taking small amounts of almond, hydrolysis in the body slowly, gradually produce trace amounts of hydrocyanic acid, does not cause poisoning, which is composed of the respiratory center, so can make breathing exercises tend to be quiet and the effect of explicit cough and asthma.

4.20% decoction 1 ml/kg for intravenous injection, cats can cause obvious sustained drop in blood pressure.

5. The almond contains bitter apricot kernels glucoside enzyme and bitter apricot kernel, after take orally, bitter apricot kernels glucoside can be enzyme hydrolysis to produce prussic acid and benzaldehyde, ordinary about 1 g almond can produce 2.5 mg hydrocyanic acid. Hydrocyanic acid is a highly toxic substances, lethal dose of about 0.05 g (potassium cyanide is about 0.2 to 0.3 g), benzaldehyde inhibits pepsin digestion function, about 50-60 adults take bitter almond, 7 to 10 children to death, death is mainly for organization suffocation, bitter almond, long time storage, bitter apricot kernels glucoside content reduces, at the same time take candy, can reduce the toxicity. Reports of almond poisoning, main symptom is difficulty in breathing, convulsions, coma, pupils are scattered, heart rate and weak, limbs cold, first aid must buy time, oral immediately activated carbon or potassium manganate (the latter) or sodium thiosulfate (5%), gastric lavage, as soon as possible and inhale nitrous acid isoamyl acetate, intravenous sodium nitrite (10 ml) 3%, followed by a sodium hyposulfite 25% (50 ml), and other symptomatic treatment such as artificial respiration, blood transfusion, etc., some people think that taking a small amount of almonds, broken down slowly by the body, gradually produce trace amounts of hydrocyanic acid, does not cause poisoning, which is composed of the respiratory center, so can make breathing exercises tend to be quiet and play cough and asthma. 1/20 minimal lethal dose of hydrocyanic acid intravenous injection can be short and strongly excited respiratory center. Directly apply the normal skin, can produce local anesthesia (such as itching, etc.).

6. Anticancer: bitter almond extract weight is 100 mg and 200 mg/kg dose lavage for 10 days, portability has obvious inhibitory effect of liver cancer in mice. To 200 mg/kg body weight will be bitter no kernel extracts respectively to normal mice lavage for five days, ten days, 15 days, lavage five days later, mice liver P - 450 content increased, lavage 10 days and 15 days later returned to normal. Liver P - 450 content. Bitter almond extract elevated liver P - 450 have present on the normal mice. Bitter almond extract to 300 mg/kg dose to portability 14 days by intraperitoneal injection of liver cancer in mice, the tumor inhibition rate was 72% (P < o. 001), with 400 mg/kg for 10 days portability by intraperitoneal injection of liver cancer in mice, the tumor inhibition rate was 60.8% (P < 0.001), with 600 mg/kg dose for 10 days portability by intraperitoneal injection of liver cancer in mice, the tumor inhibition rate of 51. O % (P < 0.001). Portability pigment particles in mice liver cells of liver cancer P - 450 content than normal mice were significantly decreased (P < 0.001), but the bitter almond extract dose (400 mg/kg) for 10 days, P - 450 content reached the normal level in mice. Portability mouse liver cytoplasm of liver cancer with 1, 2 - dichloro - 4 nitrobenzene (DCNB) as the substrates of GST activity significantly increased (P < 0.001), while the bitter almond extract to drug group (400 mg/kg) for DCNB substrate GST activity is higher than the tumor group (P < 0.05). With 1 - chloro - 2, 4 - dinitrobenzene (CDNB) as the substrates of GST activity in tumor group and drug group compared with normal control group no significant change. Is the change of liver microsomal GST activity, portability hepatocellular carcinoma in mice with CDNB substrate microsomal GST activity is higher than normal mice (P < 0.05), but bitter no kernel extracts dosage group was no significant change in the enzyme activity. For DC - NB substrate liver microsomal GST activity, whether in the liver and bitter almond extract dose groups had no obvious change.

7. Promote the synthesis of lung surface active substances: bitter almond in normal animals can promote lung surface active substance, the synthesis of the oleic acid type RDS experimental animals not only can promote the synthesis of lung surface active substances, and can make the pathological changes of improvement.

8. Other effects: bitter apricot kernels glucoside have resistance mutation function and the prevention and treatment of antineoplastic drugs caused by alloxan diabetes. In addition, bitter almond oil (that is, the bitter almond oil) with insecticide, antiseptic effect. In vitro test of ascaris lumbricoides, earthworm and so on were killed, and can kill typhoid, paratyphoid, clinical application of worm, hookworm and pinworms are effective, and no side effects.

[toxic] an overdose of bitter almond, can happen poisoning, characterized by dizziness, suddenly fainted, palpitations, headache, nausea and vomiting, convulsions, coma, purple purple, pupil big, light reaction disappeared, slow pulse is weak, shortness of breath, or slow and irregular. If not timely rescue, but died of respiratory failure. Most internal and almond or apricot tree root decoction can save, see "almond skin", "" apricot tree root. LD50 of bitter apricot kernels glucoside, mouse, rat, intravenous injection of 25 g/kg; Intraperitoneal injection of rats for 8 g/kg. Op rats is 0.6 g/kg. MTD: mice, rabbits, dogs intravenous injection and muscle injection for 3 g/kg; Oral is 0.075 g/kg; Intravenous injection of 5 g (about 0.07 g/kg). Oral bitter almond 55 (60 g), contains about 1.8 g of bitter apricot kernels glucoside (about 0.024 g/kg), that can cause death. Bitter apricot kernels caused by a large number of oral poisoning. First applied to the medulla of vomiting, breathing, vagus and the blood vessels and other sports center, all excited, then into a coma, convulsions, and then the whole paralysis of the central nervous system, due to the respiratory center paralysis and death. The poisoning mechanism is mainly due to the almonds contain hydrocyanic acid and mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase in easily react ferric iron, cytochrome oxidase - cyanide complex formation, so that the cells of the respiratory inhibition, forming organization suffocation, lead to death. Due to intestinal flora contains beta glucose glucosidase, for normal rat oral 600 mg/kg of bitter apricot kernels glucoside, 2-5 hours lead to death. Check the blood of the CN - 2.6-4.5 mu g/ml; And with the same dose to germ-free mice suffering no kernels glucoside, mice without death; The blood of the CN - less than 0.4 mu g/ml. That the intestinal flora is the root cause of bitter apricot kernels glucoside oral poisoning, toxicity about 40 times greater than the static note. By Ames, TA100 strains, S - 9, Mix (+), bitter apricot kernels glucoside have lethal effect.
