Description
Opium is dried latex obtained from the seed capsules of the opium poppy Papaver somniferum. Approximately 12 percent of opium is made up of the analgesic alkaloid morphine, which is processed chemically to produce heroin and other synthetic opioids for medicinal use and for the illegal drug trade. The latex also contains the closely related opiates codeine and thebaine, and non-analgesic alkaloids such as papaverine and noscapine. The traditional, labor-intensive method of obtaining the latex is to scratch ("score") the immature seed pods (fruits) by hand; the latex leaks out and dries to a sticky yellowish residue that is later scraped off and dehydrated. The word meconium historically referred to related, weaker preparations made from other parts of the opium poppy or different species of poppies.
अफ़ीम अफ़ीम के पौधे पैपेवर सोमनिफेरम के 'दूध' (latex) को सुखा कर बनाया गया पदार्थ है, जिसके सेवन से मादकता आती है। इसका सेवन करने वाले को अन्य बातों के अलावा तेज नींद आती है। अफीम में १२% तक मार्फीन (morphine) पायी जाती है जिसको प्रसंस्कृत (प्रॉसेस) करके हैरोइन (heroin) नामक मादक द्रब्य (ड्रग) तैयार किया जाता है। अफीम का दूध निकालने के लिये उसके कच्चे, अपक्व 'फल' में तीन से पांच तक चीरें लगाए जाते हैं ; इसका दूध निकलने लगता है, जो निकल कर सूख जाता है। यही दूध सूख कर गाढ़ा होने पर अफ़ीम कहलाता है। यह लचिला (sticky) होता है।
