pituri การใช้

• A report from Western Australia described the smoke from burning pituri leaves being used as an anaesthetic during surgical operations.
• Hodgkinson was taken aback by Bancroft's assessment of pituri's toxicity, and said it was as benign as tobacco:
• "Pituri " is one of several names used to refer to native plant matter held in the mouth for the extraction of nicotine.
• In 1872, Joseph Bancroft, a Brisbane physician, received specimens of pituri from south-west Queensland, and performed the first pharmacological investigation.
• These reports generated significant curiosity within the local scientific community about the identity of the source plant and the identity of pituri's active chemical constituent.
• Some cameleers assisted Aboriginal people by carrying traditional exchange goods, including red ochre or the narcotic plant pituri, along ancient trade routes such as the Birdsville Track.
• "' Boulia Stone House "'is a heritage-listed detached house at Pituri Street, Boulia, Shire of Boulia, Queensland, Australia.
• In traditional Aboriginal Australia there was an extensive network of trade routes across the continent and pituri was bartered for such goods as boomerangs, spears, shields and ochre.
• Joseph Bancroft, Australia's founding pharmacologist and the first to test its pharmacological properties, seems to have been the first to use the spelling " pituri ".
• "Pituriaspida " is often translated as " hallucinogenic shield . " " Pituri " is a hallucinogenic drug, made from the leaves of the Aborigine shamans for vision quests.
• The purchase of the block on the corner of Pituri and Hamilton Streets and the dissolution of the partnership with Burnell coincide with James Jones taking a mortgage on the property.
• Indigenous people have used the plant by mixing its ashes with the dried and powdered leaves of " Duboisia hopwoodii " to prepare a narcotic substance ( pituri ) for trading.
• The name Pichi Richi is believed to come from the region being a traditional centre in the production of pituri, a mixture of leaves and ash chewed as a stimulant by Australian Aborigines.
• The paleontologist Gavin Young, named the fossil agnathan " Pituriaspis doylei " after the hallucinogenic drug pituri, as he thought he might be hallucinating upon viewing the fossil fish's bizarre form.
• He reported that extract of pituri is toxic to frogs, rats, cats and dogs, with a very small dose diluted in water and injected under the skin causing death after respiratory arrest in some cases.
• Aboriginal Australians sometimes chew the nicotine-containing leaves of " Duboisia hopwoodii " ( see entry on " Pituri " ) mixed with wood ash for their stimulant and, after extended use, depressant effects.
• Bancroft received more specimens of pituri in 1877, collected on an expedition to north-west Queensland by the explorer William Hodgkinson and identified by Ferdinand von Mueller as the broken leaves and twigs of the shrub " Duboisia hopwoodii ".
• Other nineteenth century reports said chewing pituri made old men wise, induced valour in warfare and allowed Aboriginal people to walk hundreds of kilometres without food or water; and a 1901 report claimed they " will usually give anything they possess for it ".
• So, it was now clear that pituri is not one substance and the term relates to the chewing of the leaves of various plants including " Duboisia hopwoodii " and more than one species of the native tobacco genus " Nicotiana ".
• Walter Roth documented in some detail the intensity of indigenous trading passing through the Selwyn Range and Kalkatungu lands from Boulia to Cloncurry, which formed a transit point for exchanges everything from the native medical anaesthetic and narcotic stimulant, pituri, and ochre to stone knives and axes.
