Tropolisine
From Memory Alpha, the free Star Trek reference
Tropolisine is a psychotropic compound known for its hallucinogenic effects. Normally found in certain flowering plants, each tropolisine atom contains a stray neutron. Once it starts to break down in a humanoid's bloodstream it releases an undetectable toxin.
In 2151, while exploring an uncharted M class planet, the crew of Enterprise became affected by tropolisine that was blown down from the mountains during a windstorm. It was discovered by Dr. Phlox that inaprovaline, combined with being removed from the pollen-saturated environment would allow the effects of tropolisine to dissipate. (ENT: "Strange New World")
By the early 23rd century, a permanent cure for the hallucinogenic effects of tropolisine had been found, allowing Humans to settle the planet.
- This information was referenced in Archer's biography found in the Starfleet database, which was discovered aboard the USS Defiant in "In a Mirror, Darkly, Part II".
