The minimum lethal dose of quassiin for the rabbit is four 
times as great when introduced by wry of the stomach as when 
administered intravenously. It is only slightly soluble (1 
percent) and is dissolved in and absorbed from the stomach v;ith 
difficulty. The lethal doses for insects such as the silkworm 
and for the rabbit are much the same. The supposed greater 
toxicity for insects is due to an error in calculating the dose 
absorbed. The seat of action is the nervous system, torpor 
ojiA. muscular relaxation with rapid apparent death being produced 
in insects, whereas in rabbits there is muscular tremor and later 
ppjralysis
