Question
Chapter 13, Problem 23P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The transition that is blockedby BTX needs to be determined.
Concept introduction:
BTX is found in some frog species and beetles etc. which is a cardiotoxic and neurotoxic steroidal alkaloid. In Colombian frog, BTX is found on the skin. It is used as poison and as a pain killer in some ointments.
