Physical and Chemical Properties | The active ingredient of ergot toxin is mainly a series of alkaloid derivatives with ergotate acid as the basic structure, such as ergotamine (ergotamine), ergotine (ergonovine), ergotine (ergotoxin), ergotine (ergosine), ergotine (ergocristine), etc. It is blue with p-dimethylaminobenzaldehyde in slightly acidic liquid, red with fragrant pod blue aldehyde in sulfuric acid, and ammonia gas is released when it is heated with sodium hydroxide. It is obtained by extraction and separation of ergot powder. It can contract the uterus, vascular smooth muscle and pupil. |
