#tannin — Public Fediverse posts

Vorsicht bei Eicheln und Kastanien! Achtet jetzt im #herbst darauf, dass #hunde nicht zu viel davon verschlucken.

#Solanin in der #kastanie verursacht Bauchschmerzen und Verdauungsprobleme. Schon in kleinen Mengen lösen #Saponine lästige Verdauungsbeschwerden aus.
Gelangen ganze Früchte in den Körper, kann #Darmverschluss die Folge sein.

Bittere Gerbstoffe in #Eicheln sind giftig. Das enthaltene #Tannin führt zu Verdauungsstörungen, Erbrechen und sogar #Nierenversagen.

#Tannin Tarn

This photograph is of a branch submerged in tannin-stained water. Many Tasmanian plant species contain tannin compounds that help protect plants from herbivores, bacteria and fungi. As water moves across the landscape, it acts as a solvent to leach tannin from plant matter into the water. The characteristic rich amber colour is a feature of many lakes and rivers in #Tasmania, particularly in the highlands and West Coast regions.

More efficient #bioethanol production might be possible using #persimmon #tannin to help #yeast thrive.

@celtibot In #Gaulish, the term for 'green #oak' was tannos, which survived in Old #Cornish glastannen, and French tanin.

I imagine the "#tannin" in the wood is what makes its embers "acrid."
