Brief Introduction

Salicin is a naturally occurring compound found in the bark of several species of trees, primarily North American in origin, that are from the willow, poplar, and aspen families. White willow, from whose Latin name, Salix alba, the term salicin is derived, is the most well known source of this compound, but it is found in a number of other trees, shrubs, and herbaceous plants as well being synthesized commercially. It is a member of the glucoside family of chemicals and is used as an analgesic and antipyretic. Salicin is used as a precursor for the synthesis of salicylic acid and acetylsalicylic acid, commonly known as aspirin.

A colorless, crystalline solid in its pure form, salicin has the chemical formula C13H18O7. Part of its chemical structure is equivalent to the sugar glucose, meaning it is classified as a glucoside. It is soluble, but not strongly so, in water and alcolhol. Salicin has a bitter taste and is a natural analgesic and antipyretic, or fever reducer. In large quantities, it can be toxic, and overdoses may lead to liver and kidney damage. In its raw form, it may be mildly irritating to skin, respiratory organs, and eyes.

This video was created for my Environmental Studies class about Invasive Species found in Ohio. The goal was to not only show my fellow classmates about the invasive species but give them a glimpse about the damage invasive species can cause or why they are harmful to not only the environment but our pockets as well. Below I have listed the invasive species shown and some information about them. I have included links so that you may read up more on each species.

By increasing our knowledge of the “enemy” we may then learn how to stop it. My goal is bring awareness about invasive species and how harmful they are to not only other species but us as well. The more you research on invasive species the more you will see why people are trying so hard to stop them while wondering why others are not. So please, if you can, do a little research on your own after watching this video. After all, what’s considered invasive here might not be in another state or country elsewhere.

Thanks for taking the time to read, watch, and expand your knowledge on environmental issues.

(If I miss ID, my apologies it is late and I am trying to get this up so I can sleep)

Emerald Ash Borer – Emerald ash borer (EAB), Agrilus planipennis Fairmaire, is an exotic beetle that was discovered in southeastern Michigan near Detroit in the summer of 2002. The adult beetles nibble on ash foliage but cause little damage. The larvae (the immature stage) feed on the inner bark of ash trees, disrupting the tree’s ability to transport water and nutrients. Emerald ash borer probably arrived in the United States on solid wood packing material carried in cargo ships or airplanes originating in its native Asia.
