3.2.1.117 (R)-amygdalin + H2O Homo sapiens amygdalin is decomposed by beta-glucosidase in the digestive fluid into glucose and prunasin, which is further hydrolyzed to mandelonitrile and then to benzaldehyde and hydrogen cyanide. Amygdalin, a toxic component, can cause fatal cyanide poisonings, chronic toxicity, and death (R)-prunasin + D-glucose

3.2.1.118 prunasin + H2O Homo sapiens prunasin is taken up in the small intestine and decomposed by beta-glucosidase into glucose and mandelonitrile, which is further hydrolyzed to benzaldehyde and hydrogen cyanide. Amygdalin, the precursor of prunasin, is a toxic component and can cause fatal cyanide poisonings, chronic toxicity, and death D-mandelonitrile + beta-D-glucose
