Course objective Narcotic, hallucinogenic and toxic chemical structure of the compounds found in plants and fungi, the recognition (color reactions and TLC), the pharmacological effects. Classification of plant and fungal poisoning, symptoms of poisoning, mechanisms of action, treatment. Poisonous plants and fungi species grown in Turkey to be taught and used as an ornamental plant aims to introduce poisonous plants.
Course description Poisonous plants that grow naturally in our country and families to promote fungal species, they contain toxic substances is committed to understanding the structure and effects.
