Exact source claims and related context are never blended together.
This hierarchy shows why a use appears beside the preparation. The strongest relationship comes first; contextual links remain explicitly labeled.
The preparation remains searchable as an archival method record without an invented indication.
Automated live-review record
This formula was extracted automatically from a historical source and published directly for live editorial inspection. It may contain OCR, title, botanical-identity, ingredient, structure or safety errors. Do not use it as treatment, dosage or self-care guidance.

Ingredients or materials as extracted
- Gauls and Germans: forms a milky opaque solution; and with alcohol a nearly transparent, somewhat gelatinous solution.1 It is decomposed by all the acids, and acidulous salts ; by alum, the muriate and the sulphate of lime, and sulphate of magnesia; thence hard water, which contains sulphate of lime, does not properly dissolve soap : nitrate of silver; ammoniated copper; tincture of muriated iron ; ammoniated iron ; acetate, submuriate
Method as extracted
- Macerate according to the source passage: forms a milky opaque solution; and with alcohol a nearly transparent, somewhat gelatinous solution.1 It is decomposed by all the acids, and acidulous salts ; by alum, the muriate and the sulphate of lime, and sulphate of magnesia; thence hard water, which contains sulphate of lime, does not properly dissolve soap : nitrate of silver; ammoniated copper; tincture of muriated iron ; ammoniated iron ; acetate, submuriate and oxymuriate of mercury ; superacetate of lead ; tartarized iron ; tartarized an- timony ; sulphates of zinc, copper, and iron ; and all astringent vegetable solutions also decompose it. According to the ex- periments of Darcet, Lelievre, and Pelletier, 100 parts of newly made soap consist of 60\94 oil, 8'56 alkali, and 30'5O water : but part of the water is lost by keeping, and the soap becomes lighter.
Live editorial status
This record was published without a human-review gate by site policy. Automated flags at publication: no primary ingredient taxon link, title ingredient mismatch, not marked promotable, critical hazard archive only. Publication makes the source extraction inspectable; it does not verify identity, completeness, efficacy or safety.
Toxic / do not self-use
Do not self-use. The record remains public for historical, botanical and hazard research.
- Unreviewed automated import: this record is public for live editorial inspection and has not passed manual identity, formula or safety review.
- Historical formula: ingredient identity, strength, contamination risk and terminology may differ from modern practice.
- Do not use this record as dosage or treatment guidance. Every ingredient, route and contraindication requires qualified editorial verification.
- The historical use wording does not establish modern clinical effectiveness.
- Automated review flags: toxic metal or mineral.
Primary wording. Visible interpretation. No borrowed certainty.
The public record separates the historical passage, structured preparation data, use relationship and modern safety boundary. Same-plant context is presented as context, never as proof that this preparation was intended for that use.
