Muscimol (Agarin)

Create a 3D chemical structure model of Muscimol (Ibotenate) from Authentic Molymod Components by Indigo Instruments

Muscimol is a psychoactive chemical extract of the mushroom Amanita muscaria and related species. Its molecular structure can be described as an alkaloid isoxazole derivative with alcohol & aminomethyl functional groups.

Muscimol can have psychoactive effects such as visual distortions and hallucinations and mood swings, Like many mushroom compounds there is a risk of toxicity with symptoms that include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, confusion, delirium, and in severe cases, seizures and coma.

A molecular model of Muscimol in the Molymod Hybrid Dome style uses the atoms & bonds in the parts list below. Our free 3D Molecular Model Builder shows other styles & allows for image rotation as an assembly guide.
