I thought you meant the decaboxylation (tryptophan->tryptamine) would have to take place in an inert atmosphere?
Then the tryptamine (and perhaps by-products) could be supplemented (not by injection!) to the mushrooms?
If so, then the tryptamine would oxidize in the substrate no?
Sorry if this sounds silly
.. just trying with my limited knowledge about organic chemistry to picture what you are suggesting.
IF the experiment was worked out (written down and suficiently validated (with help of others here at the nexus)) then i am sure there are peeps here that would love to try this scientific experiment.
Is tryptphane (or tryptamine
readily and easily avaible?
Why do i ask these questions?
Because i have the strong feeling all the knowledge, experience, materials and equipment are avaible to do some serious scientific researching the subject of psychedelics. Perhaps the university is not interest in such experiments.. but still there is allot that can be done, for us, for this community. Comparing mescaline teks per example (yield, quality). Or seriously (scientific way) tackle the problems of dmt extraction from grasses.
We as a collective can design, set-up AND fund simple experiments.
This can be arranged fairly easy. I have no doubt about it.
