    nicotine
    [ noun ]
    an alkaloid poison that occurs in tobacco; used in medicine and as an insecticide
    <noun.substance>


    Nicotine \Nic"o*tine\ (? or ?), n. [F. nicotine. See
    {Nicotian}.] (Chem.)
    An alkaloid which is the active principle of tobacco
    ({C10H14N2}). It occurs in tobacco plants ({Nicotiana
    tabacum} and {Nicotiana rusticum}) to the extent of 2 to 8%,
    in combination with malic acid or citric acid. It is a
    colorless, transparent, oily liquid, having an acrid odor,
    and an acrid burning taste. It is intensely poisonous. The
    apparently addictive effects of tobacco smoking have been
    ascribed largely to the effect of nicotine, and the
    controlled administration of nicotine on various forms has
    been used as a technique for assisting efforts to stop the
    smoking habit. --Ure.
