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.

Some plants have different local names in the two rural communities Sirnarasa and Tanjungsari.

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).

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.
