hydrogen cyanide and Plant Poisoning

hydrogen cyanide has been researched along with Plant Poisoning in 12 studies

Hydrogen Cyanide: Hydrogen cyanide (HCN); A toxic liquid or colorless gas. It is found in the smoke of various tobacco products and released by combustion of nitrogen-containing organic materials.
hydrogen cyanide : A one-carbon compound consisting of a methine group triple bonded to a nitrogen atom

Plant Poisoning: Poisoning by the ingestion of plants or its leaves, berries, roots or stalks. The manifestations in both humans and animals vary in severity from mild to life threatening. In animals, especially domestic animals, it is usually the result of ingesting moldy or fermented forage.
