Been using TFSE for a hour still got no answer.
Anybee know which is higher in alkaloids, nevadensis or viridis?
And is Ephedra major = E. sinica? If not what species is this referring to??
Any help appreciated, know every other fucken thing about it now except what I need to know. >:(
It will not be encouraging
in re ephedrine alkaloids and
NA species..
Cheers will go take a look at that.
It is actually an Australian supplier, I wonder if they are the same. I guess same genus species = same thing right?
Anyways its worth chasing up I guess.
i have done the work on the species you are wondering about and the results were dissappointing. these species have no useable alkaloid. as far as i know only E. Sinicia is worth messing with. i did the work on all species native to nevada and the great basin region. steam distilling in a high pH medium and alcohol exttractions do the trick on the chineese ephedra species. let us know how your work turns out.
Obelisk
Yup will post all results. Although don't expect anything anytime soon, this is side project and will be long-term thing, as SWIX currently very busy.
