Tasmanian Alkaloids
    #5466204 - 04/01/06 01:43 AM (17 years, 9 months ago)

What are the Tasmanian alkaloids? I heard it doesn't contain morphine and other alkaloids like other opium poppies do. Is Norman the same as Tasmanian or did I just get things mixed up, I think Norman is a morphine-free poppy used for pharms. I know someone who is getting Tasmanian pods sometime for decoration and he would like to know whats exactly in them. He cannot find anything on the search-engine and also wants to know if anyone likes these for their alkaloid content in brews. If he were to use 2-3 pods for a tea for the first time would anything happen that he should be aware of?

taz poppies are full of morphine, codeine and the other opiates poppies normally have. its concideret to be one of the best for opium production.

Tasmanian Alkaloids or TasAlk is one of the two companies in Tasmania that produces poppy alkaloids. The other being GlaxoSmithKline. See the TasAlk web page.
They process dried poppy pods to either M-CPS or T-CPS, Morphine concentrate of Poppy Straw and Thebaine CPS. About 20% of the Tasmanian poppies grown are the "Norman" strain which produces the T-CPS. This mutated stain stops the biosynthesis of morphine at the thebaine stage.
So your friend has a 1 in five chance of getting the T-strain. My advise would be to start really low and stop when you get a-typical effects like a racing hard, stimulation etc. Search for thebaine effects on the net, it is pretty distinct from m-poppies.

As far as I know Tasmania is the only region that grows this lousy T-strain. Turkish or Dutch pods should always be the M-strain. But, hey, what is in a name? They can call any pod any name...

I hope this clears things up a bit.

Photo of a tasmanian poppy that a buddy grew from some seed I received from Tasmania. Too bad we can't tell which strain it is by lookig at it. MOD EDIT: please read and follow the rules!

Tasmania Alkaloids (the company that genetically engineered and produces "norman" strain morphine-free poppies, does not sell this strain or its seeds, nor do they sell the low morphine strains. they only sell their high morphine strain poppies. the low moprhine and thebaine strains they keep and grow for themselves to use thebaine in making painkillers like oxycodone, buprenorphine, oxymorphone, and another drug naloxone.

so any pods called tazzies will be VERY high in morphine. the morphine content is usually, on average, twice as much than in other varieties.
