Jump to navigation Jump to search
  • Trill neurotransmitter facilitating synaptic connection between host and symbiont (DS9: "Equilibrium"; DS9 Novel: Mission Gamma: Twilight)
    • Found also in cases of bluegill takeover (DS9 Novel: Mission Gamma: Lesser Evil)
    • Because severing of the synaptic connection can be fatal to the host and/or symbiont, low levels of isoboramine can indirectly result in death (DS9: "Equilibrium")
    • Removal of the symbiont is recommended at levels below 40% of normal, to prevent death of both (DS9: "Equilibrium")
    • Standard treatment of low levels of isoboramine is benzocyatizine (DS9: "Equilibrium"; DS9 Novel: Mission Gamma: Twilight)
  • Symbiont overdose of isoboramine can result in neuroleptic shock, death if untreated (DS9 Novel: Mission Gamma: Cathedral)
    • Effect treatable by half-equivalent dose of endomethalamine (DS9 Novel: Mission Gamma: Cathedral)
  • Isomer of boramine (DS9 Novel: Mission Gamma: Cathedral)
