Sorbus arranensis rupicola") which is still found on Holy Isle. This hybrid species interbred with the rowan/mountain ash ("Sorbus aucuparia") to produce "S. arranesis". The bastard mountain ash ("Sorbus pseudofennica") arose from a further cross between "S. arranensis" and the mountain ash ("S. aucuparia"). Smart showed by using physical characteristics that the species were separate and not a result of random variation. Some overlap does however occur and this suggests that some hybridising may occur between the two species. Sorbus arranensis Sorbus arranensis, sometimes referred to as the Scottish or Arran whitebeam is a species of plant in the family Rosaceae. It
Sorbitol an enema. Sorbitol works as a laxative by drawing water into the large intestine, stimulating bowel movements. Sorbitol has been determined safe for use by the elderly, although it is not recommended without the advice of a doctor. Sorbitol is found in some dried fruits and may contribute to the laxative effects of prunes. Sorbitol was first discovered in the fresh juice of mountain ash (Sorbus aucuparia) berries in 1872. It is also found in the fruits of apples, plums, pears, cherries, dates, peaches and apricots. Sorbitol is used in bacterial culture media to distinguish the pathogenic from most other
