THE ACTION OF NATURAL CONSTITUENTS WITH ALKALOIDS STRUCTURES ON THE HUMAN BODY
Abstract
Alkaloids (fr. alcali; gr eidos - aspect) has organic heterocyclic substances containing alcohol, with a vegetal origin and basic character, originating as a result of plant secondary metabolism. They give characteristic reactions and their effect on animal organisms is most often toxic. The objective of this study is represented by the systematization of data regarding natural compounds with an alkaloid structure. The paper presents the classification of alkaloids according to compound structure and the type of biosynthetic precursors. Alkaloids are obtained through extraction, identification, measurement, purification, through various physical and chemical methods. The paper also presents natural alkaloids and their actions on the human body. Through the study of pharmacologic and toxic actions, specific conclusions that limit the use of these compounds in therapy are drawn.
