What is Acacia?
Acacia, also known as chickpea, beauty bean and acacia bean, is a poisonous plant of Acacia in Leguminosae and distributed in tropical areas.
Protein (also known as acacia toxin protein) called chicken mother bead toxin is contained in the seeds of chicken mother bead. This toxin is very toxic, it will be poisoned if eaten by mistake, and even die in severe cases. But in life, we will make its seeds into beaded ornaments and percussion instruments.
How poisonous is acacia?
Sophora japonica seeds contain a deadly toxin-Sophora japonica venom protein. How toxic is this protein toxin? Let me introduce it to you.
In nature, there are many kinds of phytotoxic proteins. In terms of toxicity, the equivalent of acacia venom protein is more than 70 times that of ricin, which was once the first toxic protein and has been listed as one of the potentially important toxic protein warfare agents and biological pathogens.
According to related research, the lethal dose of acacia venom protein to adults is 0. 1 μ g/kg ~ 1.0 μ g/kg. If calculated numerically, it is said that 10- 100 micrograms of acacia venom protein can poison a person weighing 200 kilograms. The locust toxin protein in a locust seed can reach this dose, which is much more toxic than arsenic.
Acacia makes bracelets.
Of course, some friends who know acacia will say: high-purity acacia venom protein is so toxic, acacia seed coat is non-toxic, and there is no problem in contact and wearing.
Friends who know akamycin may also say: akamycin is not resistant to high temperature, and its toxicity will disappear after high temperature treatment.
The above statement is true. Although acacia is very toxic, it is wrapped in a hard shell and its toxicity will not be emitted. In addition, the toxicity of acacia seeds can be eliminated by treatment at 60℃.
But it is still very dangerous in the process of making acacia into necklaces and bracelets. Because it is often necessary to punch and thread, workers must be well protected.
