A general review of saponin chemistry, bioactivities and of chemical aspects of saponin-associated hepatogenous photosensitization of ruminants (sheep, goats, and cattle) is presented. A field trial was undertaken to explore the genin dose/response hypothesis that saponins produced by the plant Nart...
