Delphinium dictyocarpum

Delphinium dictyocarpum

Delphinium dictyocarpum is a plant traditionally found in regions of Mongolia. While its specific traditional uses are not well-documented, it has been included in various ecological and botanical studies. Scientific evidence indicates that this plant can accumulate radioactive isotopes such as 137Cs and tritium, with varying degrees observed across different environmental conditions. The transfer of these isotopes from soil to the plant's tissues is also noted, though specific health implications are not extensively studied or reported. Safety concerns for Delphinium dictyocarpum appear minimal based on current data, and there are no recorded drug interactions associated with this plant.

What the science says

  • The study found that 137Cs accumulation in Giant African snails increased in their gastrointestinal tract more than other organs, with forage contributing more than soil. D PMID
  • The study found varying transfer factors for 137Cs and 241Am from soil and grass meal to broiler organs, with higher Ff for 137Cs in muscle tissue. D PMID
  • The study found varying tritium concentrations in plants across different sites, with higher levels detected near nuclear test areas. D PMID
  • The study updated the checklist of native vascular plants in Mongolia, including new species descriptions and taxonomic changes. D PMID
