Univ. Prof. Dr. Wolfgang Kubelka (Dept. of Pharmacognosy Univ. Vienna) took part in the project, starting fall 2006, finishing winter 2007, and went to Java in September 2006. The project was conducted among low-income households and health care staffs in two villages in West Java; Sirnarasa is a remote village and Tanjungsari in contrast is located in a sub-urban area. Figure: Map of World, Java and West Java In each village respondents were involved for interviews and wider participation during group discussions. The respondents consisted of male and female inhabitants from common village, local healers as well as official health care personnel. In both villages, lack of knowledge in medicinal plant preparation was identified. This research has demonstrated local availability and importance of medicinal plant knowledge in maintaining daily health status as well as the obstacles for its utilization in the existing rural health care system. Optimization of locally known medicinal plant use may provide an affordable 5 and accessible health care alternative for communities, which in long term contributes positively in poverty alleviation. INTRAMED documented all the medicinal plant species from both villages, and their use for treatment of more than 50 illnesses, from common cold to hypertension. Our work started with looking through the long list of collected plants, comprising appr. 160 species. The main task of our work was to search literature for knowledge of all of the plants – botanical description, chemical constituents, pharmacological activities, use as remedies, toxic properties, etc. In this way we intended to yield scientific background and support for the traditional use of the plants and the respective preparations. Considering the large number of plant species it was decided to split the work into two seperate parts, each of them dealing with 25 or 20 plant families and the species within these families. Information on each plant was obtained by searching in books, journals, and the internet. Special notice was given to recent research studies. Figure: Image taken from study presentation by Verania Hödl, INTRAMED Project Coordinator 6 2 Monographs In this chapter are the monographs of the different plants from Java used in the study from INTRAMED ordered alphabetically by plant family and then by the scientfic name of the plant (in brackets the Javanese local name of the plant). Some plants have different local names in the two rural communities Sirnarasa and Tanjungsari.

Should however a copyright infringement will be known, I would ask to notify me. 7 2.1 Alliaceae Onion family Alliaceae include 20 genera of usually bulbous perennial herbs, which are widely distributed in tropical and temperate regions. This group is closely related to the amaryllis family, Amaryllidaceae. It includes pungent culinary herbs such as onions, garlic, chives, shallots and leeks. The characteristic aroma emanates from sulfur compounds. Several species are grown for their ornamental flowers as well. Leaves are narrowly strap-shaped to linear. Flowers are funnel-shaped, with petals fused into a tube at the base. They are clustered in umbels and subtended by a dry, spathelike bract and borne at the end of a leafless stalk (scape).[1] Alliaceae are monocots, part of the order Asparagales. The family has been widely but not universally recognised; in the past, the plants involved were often treated as belonging to the family Liliaceae, and still are by some botanists. The APG (Angiosperm Phylogeny Group) II system of 2003 recognises the family and places it in the order Asparagales in the clade monocots. APG II allows two options of the circumscription of the family: Alliaceae sensu lato ("in the wider sense"), including all the plants that were assigned to the families Agapanthaceae, Alliaceae and Amaryllidaceae in the 1998 APG. Alliaceae sensu stricto ("in the strict sense"), unchanged from the 1998 APG system, excluding the plants then forming the families Agapanthaceae and Amaryllidaceae. Note that quite a few of the plants that were once included in family Alliaceae are assigned to the family Themidaceae by both APG and APG II. The most important genus is Allium, which includes several important food plants, including onions (Allium cepa), chives (A. schoenoprasum), garlic (A. [2] sativum and A. scordoprasum), and leeks (A. porrum).

(Bawang Ganda, Bawang Beureum) Allium cepa L. Occurrence and appearance Bulb solitary or clustered, applanate-globose to cylindric-ovoid; tunic purple- red, brown-red, pale brown-red, or yellow to pale yellow, papery to thinly leathery, entire. Leaves shorter than scape, 0.5--2 cm wide, terete, fistulose. Scape developed or not, if developed then to 1 m, terete, conspicuously inflated below middle, fistulose, covered with leaf sheaths only at base. Spathe 2- or 3-valved, persistent. Umbel globose, densely many flowered or with bulblets and a few flowers. Pedicels equal, ca. 5 × as long as perianth, bracteolate. Perianth chalk white or white; segments with green or pale red midvein, oblong-ovate, 4--5 × ca. 2 mm. Filaments equal, slightly longer than perianth segments, connate at base for ca. 1/5 their length, adnate to perianth segments for 1/2 of connate part; outer ones subulate; inner ones broadened at base, 1-toothed on each side. Ovary subglobose, with concave nectaries covered by hoodlike projections at base. Style slightly exserted.

  • Anti-Inflammatory and Analgesic Activity of Ethanolic Extract of Kaempferia Rotunda Rhizome in Rats
    ANTI-INFLAMMATORY AND ANALGESIC ACTIVITY OF ETHANOLIC EXTRACT OF KAEMPFERIA ROTUNDA RHIZOME IN RATS 1. INRODUCTION The inflammatory process is the response to an injurious stimulus. It can be evoked by a wide variety of noxious agents (e.g., infections, antibodies, or physical injuries)[1]. Although it is adefense mechanism that helps body toprotect itself against infection, burns,toxic chemicals, allergens or other noxiousstimuli, the complex events and mediatorsinvolved in the inflammatory reaction caninduce, maintain or aggravate many diseases [2]. Pain is a subjective experience, hard to define exactly, even though we all know what we mean by it. it is a direct response to an untoward event associated with tissue damage, such as injury, inflammation or cancer, but severe pain can arise independently of any obvious predisposing cause (e.g. trigeminal neuralgia) or persist long after the precipitating injury has healed (e.g. phantom limb pain). It can also occur as a consequence of brain or nerve injury (e.g. following a stroke or herpes infection [1]. The non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAID) are widely used to treat several inflammatory conditions, however the probability to cause many and severe adverse effects limit their use. In this regard, the traditional medicine continues to use medicinal plants as a substituent to allopathic medicines [3]. The traditional Indian system of medicine has avery long term history of usage in a number of diseases or disorders, but lacks safety and efficacy data for development of standardized safe and effective herbal formulations with proven scientific evidence provide an economical alternative in several diseases areas [7].

Both species belong to a small section A. sect. Butomissa (Salisbury 1866: 91) Kamelin (1973: 239), which is subordinated to a subgenus of the same name, A. subgen. Butomissa (Salisb.) N.Friesen in Friesen et al. (2006: 22). Native range of the species is completely Asian, and it is known to occur in Kazakhstan, Russia, China, and Mongolia (Pavlov & Poljakov 1958; Friesen 1988, 1995; Xu & Kamelin 2000). It is considered to be a relic of former cultivation in Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan (Vvedensky 1963). Allium ramosum prefers steppes, dry meadows, and petrophytic communities in the wild. In Europe, A. ramosum is a rare alien species. It was introduced into Europe as a spice plant in the last decades of the 20th century and is still regularly available in the garden trade (R.

These aliens come in the form of plants, animals and microbes that have been introduced into an area from other parts of the world, and have been able to displace indigenous species. Invasive alien species are emerging as one of the major threats to sustainable development, on a par with global warming and the destruction of life-support systems. Increased mobility and human interaction have been key drivers in the spread of Indigenous Alien Species. Invasion by alien species is a global phenomenon, with threatening negative impacts to the indigenous biological diversity as well as related negative impacts on human health and overall his well-being. Thus, threatening the ecosystems on the earth. The Millennium Ecosystem Assessment (MA) found that trends in species introductions, as well as modelling predictions, strongly suggest that biological invasions will continue to increase in number and impact. An additional concern is that multiple human impacts on biodiversity and ecosystems will decrease the natural biotic resistance to invasions and, therefore, the number of biotic communities dominated by invasive species will increase. India one of the 17 "megadiverse" countries and is composed of a diversity of ecological habitats like forests, grasslands, wetlands, coastal and marine ecosystems, and desert ecosystems have been reported with 40 percent of alien flora species and 25 percent out of them invasive by National Bureau of Plant Genetic Resource.

Historical Setting of the Guianan Plant Heritage The Guianas are embedded high in the green shoulder of northern South America, an area once known as the "Wild Coast". They are the only non-Latin American countries in South America, and are situated just north of the Equator in a configuration with the Amazon River of Brazil to the south and the Orinoco River of Venezuela to the west. The three Guianas comprise, from west to east, the countries of Guyana (area: 83,000 square miles; capital: Georgetown), Surinam (area: 63, 037 square miles; capital: Paramaribo) and French Guiana (area: 34, 740 square miles; capital: Cayenne). Perhaps the earliest physical contact between Europeans and the present-day Guianas occurred in 1500 when the Spanish navigator Vincente Yanez Pinzon, after discovering the Amazon River, sailed northwest and entered the Oyapock River, which is now the eastern boundary of French Guiana.
