RICIN, A CHAIN C화학적 특성, 용도, 생산
화학적 성질
Various tests for the detection of Ricin are avail-
able, including “Pro-Strips” from Avant Technologies, the
BIO-911? test strip developed by Osborn Scientific
Group, Lakeside AZ. This one-step test is reported to
detect, within minutes, the presence of minute quantities of
the toxin (less than 50 nanograms); the freeze-dried assay
kit to detect crude Ricin called Ruggedized Advanced
Pathogen Identification Device (Rapid)?, Rapid LT, and
Razor instrument developed by Idaho Technologies, Inc.
Ricin is detectable in urine, plasma, and environmental
samples. Instant Chek Abrin/Ricin Detection Kit, Catalog
Number: IC-RA-003-10 Kit Contents: 10 test units each
test contains two tests (one Abrin and one Ricin) per unit,
lyophilized reagent, reconstitution buffer, wash buffer,
transfer pipettes, instruction booklet. Ey Laboratories, Inc,

2009, researchers at Yeshiva University’s Albert Einstein
College of Medicine have developed an accurate test.
Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) can detect castor bean
DNA in most Ricin preparations. See also “Water
Detection,” below.

Purification Methods
Ricin (toxin from Castor bean Ricinus communis) [A chain 96638-28-7, B chain 96638-29-8] Mr ~30,000, amorphous. Crude ricin, obtained by aqueous extraction and (NH4)2SO4 precipitation, is chromatographed on a galactosyl-Sepharose column with sequential elution of pure ricin. The second peak is due to ricin agglutinin. [Simmons & Russell Anal Biochem 146 206 1985.] It is an inhibitor of protein synthesis. EXTREMELY DANGEROUS, USE EXTREME CARE [instructions accompany product].
비 호환성
Product is considered stable at ambient
temperature. Ricin and other protein toxins can be destroyed
by exposure to 0.1% sodium hypochlorite solution (household
bleach) for 10 minutes. The toxic portion of Ricin is heat
stable at ambient temperatures and begins to decompose at
60℃/140 ℃. At 80℃/176 ℃ most of the toxicity is lost in
about 30 minutes. When heated to decomposition, Ricin emits
toxic nitrogen oxides. Avoid contact with strong oxidizers.
폐기물 처리
Do not clean-up or dispose of
Ricin, except under supervision of a specialist.
