Index of Homoeopathic Provings. by Thomas Lindsley Bradford. Orig. Edition 1901, Philadelphia (Reprint Jain Publ., Delhi 2000) Index of Homoeopathic Provings. by Thomas Lindsley Bradford. orig. edition 1901, Philadelphia (reprint Jain Publ., Delhi 2000) changes, completion of abbreviatons and adaptation of names by Jörg Wichmann 2017. For the sake of completeness many notes were kept, that are not indicating a homeopathic proving, like the quotes from Hering´s Guiding Symptoms, which to a great extent include clinical material. Please keep in mind, that in Bradford´s and Allen´s days many experiences with toxins or substances were listed and reported as “provings” that we wouldn´t call so today. So not all literature that is given or quoted by them really contains full proving material, but just some kind of primary source on that remedy. The names added first line (= Name xxx) are my personal additions of the correct current name. Everything in brackets (…..) is my addition. The abbrev. “V.” is used by Bradford for “Volume”, “Vol.”. You find the books and magazines quoted by Bradford in the end of this file. Bradford´s Addenda (p.284 of the book) are already incorporated in the regular alphabet. Currently you will have to find the desired remedy by moving within this file using “Strg+F” or scrolling down the alphabet. There you will only find literature listed, but many of the originals texts are also given on our website www.provings.info . For example Allen´s Encyclopedia as well as Hughes´ Cyclopedia are available online and you will find the respective link in the Link-list of the same remedy in our database. This file is still under construction and will contain some mistakes due to the countless typos in the old original text, which we are trying to correct or comment on by and by. We appreciate any finds and hints. ____________________________________________________________________________________ A. ABIES CANADENSIS. (= Tsuga canadensis) Pinus canadensis. Hemlock spruce.

  • 2011 NAMA Toxicology Committee Report North American Mushroom Poisonings
    2011 NAMA Toxicology Committee Report North American Mushroom Poisonings By Michael W. Beug, PhD, Chair NAMA Toxicology Committee P.O. Box 116, Husum, WA 98623 email: beugm@evergreen.edu Abstract In 2011, for North America, the reports to NAMA included 117 people seriously sickened by mushrooms. Thirteen cases involved ingestion of either “Destroying Angel” or “Death Cap” mushrooms in the genus Amanita. There was one death and two people needed a liver transplant after ingestion of a “Destroying Angel”, presumably Amanita bisporigera. Three cases, including one death, involved amatoxins from a Galerina , presumably Galerina marginata . There was one case of kidney damage after consumption of Amanita smithiana and a second case of kidney damage involving two women who consumed an unknown mushroom . The year was noteworthy for the large number of reports of problems from consumption of morels with 22 cases (18.8% of the total). A number of problems were the result of people consuming morels raw – but everyone recovered within 24 hours. The eighteen Chlorophyllum molybdites cases (15% of the total) were sometimes quite severe and often required hospitalization. While Gyromitra cases numbered only nine (eight Gyromitra esculenta and one Gyromitra montana ), four required long hospitalizations as a result of liver damage. In the Northeast, newspaper reports mention long hospitalizations from some of the mushrooms known to cause gastro- intestinal distress, but we have no information on those cases. Twenty seven reports of dogs ill after eating mushrooms included fourteen deaths of the dogs. The dog deaths were mostly attributed to ingestion of mushrooms containing α-amanitin, including probable Amanita bisporigera, Amanita ocreata and Amanita phalloides , though in at least one case the possibility of a deadly Galerina cannot be ruled out.

  • Bulgaria 17-24 June 2015
    The Western Rhodope Mountains of Bulgaria 17-24 June 2015 Holiday participants Peter and Elonwy Crook Helen and Malcolm Crowder Val Appleyard and Ron Fitton David Nind and Shevaun Mendelsohn George and Sue Brownlee Colin Taylor Sue Davy Judith Poyser Marie Watt Leaders Vladimir (Vlado) Trifonov and Chris Gibson Report by Chris Gibson and Judith Poyser. Our hosts at the Hotel Yagodina are Mariya and Asen Kukundjievi – www.yagodina-bg.com Cover: Large Skipper on Dianthus cruentus (SM); Scarce Copper on Anthemis tinctoria (RF); mating Bee-chafers (VA); Yagodina from St. Ilya and the cliffs above Trigrad (CG); Geum coccineum (HC); Red-backed Shrike (PC); Slender Scotch Burnet on Carduus thoermeri (JP). Below: In the valley above Trigrad (PC). As with all Honeyguide holidays, part of the price of the holiday was put towards local conservation work. The conservation contributions from this holiday raised £700, namely £40 per person topped up by Gift Aid through the Honeyguide Wildlife Charitable Trust. Honeyguide is committed to supporting the protection of Lilium rhodopaeum. The Rhodope lily is a scarce endemic flower of the Western Rhodopes, found on just a handful of sites in Bulgaria and just over the border in Greece, about half of which have no protection. Money raised in 2014 was enough to fund Honeyguide leader Vlado Trifonov, who is recognised as the leading authority on the Rhodope lily, for monitoring and mowing for two years at the location visited by Honeyguiders. That includes this year (2015). That work is likely to continue for some years, but other conservation needs in the future are uncertain.

  • Bugs & Beasties of the Western Rhodopes
    Bugs and Beasties of the Western Rhodopes (a photoguide to some lesser-known species) by Chris Gibson and Judith Poyser chrismothman@btinternet.com Yagodina At Honeyguide, we aim to help you experience the full range of wildlife in the places we visit. Generally we start with birds, flowers and butterflies, but we don’t ignore 'other invertebrates'. In the western Rhodopes they are just so abundant and diverse that they are one of the abiding features of the area. While simply experiencing this diversity is sufficient for some, as naturalists many of us want to know more, and in particular to be able to give names to what we see. Therein lies the problem: especially in eastern Europe, there are few books covering the invertebrates in any comprehensive way. Hence this photoguide – while in no way can this be considered an ‘eastern Chinery’, it at least provides a taster of the rich invertebrate fauna you may encounter, based on a couple of Honeyguide holidays we have led in the western Rhodopes during June. We stayed most of the time in a tight area around Yagodina, and almost anything we saw could reasonably be expected to be seen almost anywhere around there in the right habitat. Most of the photos were taken in 2014, with a few additional ones from 2012. While these creatures have found their way into the lists of the holiday reports, relatively few have been accompanied by photos. We have attempted to name the species depicted, using the available books and the vast resources of the internet, but in many cases it has not been possible to be definitive and the identifications should be treated as a ‘best fit’.

This is a supplement to the special issue of Toxicon. It contains the abstracts that were submitted too late for inclusion there, as well as a complete program agenda of the meeting, as well as other materials. At the time of this printing, we had 344 scientific abstracts scheduled for presentation and over 300 attendees from all over the planet. The World Congress of IST is held every three years, most recently in Recife, Brazil in March 2009. The IST World Congress is the primary international meeting bringing together scientists and physicians from around the world to discuss the most recent advances in the structure and function of natural toxins occurring in venomous animals, plants, or microorganisms, in medical, public health, and policy approaches to prevent or treat envenomations, and in the development of new toxin-derived drugs.

Weldon, Stephen P. Mackessy* School of Biological Sciences, University of Northern Colorado, 501 20th Street, CB 92, Greeley, CO 80639-0017, USA article info abstract Article history: The Puerto Rican Racer Alsophis portoricensis is known to use venom to subdue lizard prey, Received 12 August 2009 and extensive damage to specific lizard body tissues has been well documented. The Received in revised form toxicity and biochemistry of the venom, however, has not been explored extensively. We 27 September 2009 employed biological assays and proteomic techniques to characterize venom from Accepted 2 October 2009 A. portoricensis anegadae collected from Guana Island, British Virgin Islands. High metal- Available online 14 October 2009 loproteinase and gelatinase, as well as low acetylcholinesterase and phosphodiesterase activities were detected, and the venom hydrolyzed the a-subunit of human fibrinogen Keywords: Biological roles very rapidly. SDS-PAGE analysis of venoms revealed up to 22 protein bands, with masses of w Colubrid 5–160 kDa; very little variation among individual snakes or within one snake between CRISP venom extractions was observed. Most bands were approximately 25–62 kD, but MALDI- Enzymes TOF analysis of crude venom indicated considerable complexity in the 1.5–13 kD mass a-Fibrinogenase range, including low intensity peaks in the 6.2–8.8 kD mass range (potential three-finger Gland histology toxins). MALDI-TOF/TOF MS analysis of tryptic peptides confirmed that a 25 kDa band was Hemorrhage a venom cysteine-rich secretory protein (CRiSP) with sequence homology with tigrin, Mass spectrometry a CRiSP from the natricine colubrid Rhabdophis tigrinus.
