| dc.description.abstract | The Ranunculaceae family contain 50 to 60 genera and 2,500
species. Some plants belonging to this family are highly poisonous and
are used as herbal medicines or spices (Bruneton, 1999; Ipor and Oyen,
1999; Heywood et al., 2007; Kokoska et al., 2012). The Consolida
regalis Gray is from family of Ranunculaceae (Bitiş et al., 2006).
Consolida regalis grow on sandy or chalky soils at about 0–1,200
metres above sea level. It grows up on about 30–80 centimetres and the
stem is erect. This plant is tolerant drought. The flowers of Consolida
regalis consist with five to eight hermaphrodite flowers. the color of the
flowers varies between dark blue and purple with five sepals
(Anonymous, 2022). As a self-fertile plant, and the flowers which
contain diterpenoid alkaloids (Anonymous, 2017). The alkaloids they
contain of Consolida species cause them to be toxic. This toxicity can
cause neurotoxic, muscle system spasms and even death (Meriçli et al.,
2001; Gonz´alez et al., 2005; Bitiş et al., 2006). Thanks to the alkaloids
it contains, consolida when used in appropriate amounts, have effects
in analgesic balms, sedatives, emetics and anthelmintics (Meriçli et al.,
2001; Ulubelen et al., 2001). | tr |
