abrinn.

Brit.

/ˈeɪbrɪn/, U.S.

/ˈeɪbrɪn/

Origin: A borrowing from Latin, combined with an English element. Etymons: Latin Abrus , -in suffix¹.

Etymology: < scientific Latin Abrus, genus name (1763 or earlier), specific use of post-classical Latin abrus ( Prosperus Alpinus De plantis Aegypti (1592) f. 31^v; apparently < Arabic: see further Französisches etymol. Wörterbuch XIX. at abrūz), both denoting the plant jequirity + -in suffix¹. Compare French abrine abrin (1892 or earlier), and also French abrus (1721), abre (1826), both denoting the plant jequirity.

Chemistry.

A highly poisonous glycoprotein present in the seeds (jequirity beans) of the jequirity or Indian liquorice, Abrus precatorius.
