Popis: Acute oral toxicity studies were carried out on cottonseed pigment glands, gossypol, diaminogossypol and gossypurpurin using rats as experimental animals. It was found that both diaminogossypol and gossypurpurin are considerably less toxic than pure gossypol. The pigment glands were more toxic than gossypol and it was concluded that the toxicity of pigments cannot be accounted for entirely on the basis of their gossypol content.
