SOLANINE History
Solanine(20562-02-1) was first isolated in 1820 by Desfosses from the berries of the European Black Nightshade, Solanum nigrum, after which it was named.
SOLANINE Uses
Solanine(20562-02-1) has both fungicidal and pesticidal properties, and it is one of the plant's natural defenses.
Solanine(20562-02-1) hydrochloride (a salt of solanine) has been used as a commercial pesticide, but never on a large scale.
Solanine(20562-02-1) has sedative and anticonvulsant properties, and has been used as a treatment for asthma, as well as for cough and cold medicines. However, its effectiveness for either use is questionable.
SOLANINE Production
Solanine(20562-02-1) can occur naturally in any part of the plant, including the leaves, fruit, and tubers.
