Opium is dried and processed at these factories for export and is also used for extraction of various products like Codeine phosphate, Thebaine, Morphine sulphate, Noscapine etc.
22.
Although modification of thebaine is the most common way of making thebacon, it is not uncommonly prepared by refluxing hydrocodone with acetic anhydride, generally similar to how diacetylmorphine is produced.
23.
Through selective breeding of the " Papaver somniferum " plant, the content of the phenanthrene alkaloids morphine, codeine, and to a lesser extent thebaine has been greatly increased.
24.
He sought ways to induce seizures in animals with chemicals; after trials with the alkaloids strychnine, thebaine, coramine, caffeine, and brucin, he settled on camphor dissolved in oil as effective and reliable.
25.
Dried " Papaver somniferum " capsules and stems will, if harvested and dried by the usual protocol, contain significantly lower quantities of thebaine than opium made from latex as well as somewhat more codeine.
26.
It was announced in 1973 that a team at the National Institutes of Health in the United States had developed a method for total synthesis of morphine, codeine, and thebaine using coal tar as a starting material.
27.
A shortage in codeine-hydrocodone class cough suppressants ( all of which can be made from morphine in one or more steps, as well as from codeine or thebaine ) was the initial reason for the research.
28.
The company patented a poppy variety called " Norman " which was stated, in the 1999 " Tasmanian Alkaloids Poppy Grower s Bulletin " to be the first variety lacking morphine and codeine, while still containing thebaine and oripavine.
29.
This was because " P . bracteatum " does not contain morphine, which is converted to heroin, but is high in thebaine for legal codeine production, which was in crisis at the time because of the dwindling Turkish supply.
30.
In modern times, much of the thebaine, which often serves as the raw material for the synthesis for hydrocodone, hydromorphone, and other semisynthetic opiates, originates from extracting " Papaver orientale " or " Papaver bracteatum ".
