Applications
Strychnine(1+) is a highly toxic natural alkaloid principally encountered in regulated rodenticide formulations as a pesticide. In scientific research, it has historically been used as a convulsant agent in neuropharmacology and toxicology studies to probe inhibitory glycine receptor pathways. It also serves as a reference standard and analyte in toxicological and analytical methods for alkaloids, supporting method development and validation. Given its toxicity, its use is restricted and subject to local regulations and formulation limits.
