This is observational analytical study describes the behavioral effect of Argemone mexicana L. seed oil and extracts on albino rats. Horizontal movement of rats affected by the plant seed oil, successive and crude ethanolic seed extracts at 250 and 500 mg/kg oral dose, and mixed dose of native alcohol and crude ethanolic extract was assessed by computerized activity cage and compared to the negative and positive control. Rat general behavior was observed during the test. The results of the study prove that Argemone mexicana L. seed oil and extracts affect the CNS and increase the narcotic potency of native alcohol drinks. It is highly recommended to inform all the concerned of the danger of using this plant and limit its use only for therapeutic purposes and under control. XII المستخلص هدفت هذه الدراسه لمعرفة األثر السلوكي لبذور نبات الخشخاش المكسيكي باستخدام فئران التجارب و اتبعت المنهج الوصفي التحليلي لرصد و تحليل البيانات. رصدت الحركه األفقيه للفئران المتأثره بجرع من زيت و مستخلصات البذور الكحوليه بتراكيز مختلفه 250 و 500 مجم/كجم ، جرعه مخلوطه من مستخلص النبات الكحولي و الخمرالبلدي (عرقي) كما رصدت التغييرات السلوكيه للفئران أثناء التجربه. قورنت النتائج بالفئران الطبيعيه و الفئران المتأثره بجرعه من الخمر البلدي كعينات مرجعيه سالبه و موجبه على التوالي. أثبتت الدراسه أن زيت بذور نبات الخشخاش المكسيكي و مستخلصاتها الكحوليه ذات أثر على الجهاز العصبي المركزي ، كما انها تزيد التأثر المخدر للخمور البلديه. يوصى بضرورة تنبيه المعنيين بخطورة األستخدام العشوائي للنبات ومنع استخدامه إال ألغراض عالجيه تحت اشإررا و المتابعه. XIII Chapter one Introduction and Literature Review 1 1.1 Introduction: Medicinal plants have been identified and used throughout human history. Plants have the ability to synthesize a wide variety of chemical compounds that are used to perform important biological functions, and to defend against attack from predators such as insects, fungi and herbivorous mammals.
