Introduction of 8001-79-4 :

Castor oil is a natural triglyceride and a solvent. Castor oil has a laxative effect and induces labor in pregnant females. Castor oil can be used as a solvent, co-solvent, stabilizing agent and polyol for the formation of polymer-nanoparticle composites[1][2]. In Vitro: Castor oil (CO) is an inedible vegetable oil that has been employed extensively as a bioresource material for the synthesis of biodegradable polymers, cosmetics, lubricants, biofuels, coatings and adhesives. Castor oil is used in medicine, pharmaceuticals and biorefineries, due to its versatile chemistry[1]. In Vivo: Castor oil is a natural triglyceride which has a laxative effect and induces labor in pregnant females. When given castor oil, wild-type mice respond with a strong diarrhea, starting about 30 min after application. The laxative effect lasts for about 2 h[2].
