Similar to the Breath of Hathor, nish'ta is a biological compound employed by the Goa'uld as a powerful form of mind-control. Nish'ta is an organism delivered in a gaseous form and is absorbed by the body's tissues, rendering the subject's mind "extremely pliable" and open to suggestion.
An electrical shock, such as that delivered by a zat gun discharge, will kill the organism and free the victim from its control. Once freed, the subject is immune from repeat infection.
