(SML PKT) Product Description A highly aromatic and exotic camphor-scented pepper native to West Africa. (SML PKT) Selim Pepper Botanical Name: Xylopia aethiopica Other Common Names: African pepper, Ethiopian pepper, Grains of Selim, Uda Pods, Guinea pepper, kimba pepper, negro pepper and Senegal pepper Description & Use: Selim pepper is possibly the rarest spice we have sourced for some time, it's bound to please the pepper fans. It also goes by the names; African pepper, Ethiopian pepper, Grains of Selim, Guinea pepper, kimba pepper, negro pepper and Senegal pepper. This little pod, about the same size as a long pepper, comes to us from Western Africa and this pepper is generally used in the same way as black pepper, Sichuan pepper or grains of paradise. Like Sichuan pepper, most of the camphor-like, numbing, medicinal flavor is in the pod itself and the seeds actually have very little flavor by comparison. For this reason the whole or ground pod is most commonly added to cooking to get the most out of the taste. Although Selim pepper tastes quite medicinal on its own, when combined with rich, gamey or very fatty ingredients, it has the effect of cutting the rich, cloying flavors of these foods. Produce of Sierra Leone packed in Australia.

Antifungal Activity of Xylopia Aethiopica on Some Clinical Organisms in Nigeria
Hamdard Medicus Vol. 55, No. 1, 2012 Antifungal Activity of Xylopia aethiopica on Some Clinical Organisms in Nigeria U.C. Kanife*, F. Doherty, N.M.C. Nwakanma and G.O.L. Adamu Department of Biological Science, School of Science, Yaba College of Technology, Yaba, Lagos, Nigeria. The antifungal properties of water, ethanol and chloroform extracts of the fruits of Xylopia aethiopica were investigated using agar well diffusion method. Aqueous extract was not potent against all the organisms tested. Chloroform and ethanol extracts were active against Candida albicans and Aspergillus niger at different concentrations (50 mg/ml, 75 mg/ml and 100 mg/ml) with varying zones of inhibition. The chloroform extracts of Xylopia aethiopica had the highest zone of inhibition of 5.4 mm at 75 mg/ml which is comparable to that of Nystatin. Ethanol extract also had strongest inhibition at 75 mg/ml with 5.0 mm mean zone of inhibition against Aspergillus niger. The crude extracts of Xylopia aethiopica contained Saponins, Flavonoids, Phenol, Alkaloids and Terpenoids. Keywords: Antifungal activity, Crude extract, Xylopia aethiopica. Introduction Xylopia aethiopica is an angiosperm belonging to the family Annonaceae used mainly as spices and in traditional medicine. A tree of 20 m height or more with a clear straight bole in 75 cm girth, often with short prop roots, smooth grey bark and scented when fresh (Boakye-Yiadom et al., 1971). The fruit is the most important part of the tree, it is narrow, dark brown or black about 2 inches long with separate carpel on a stout peduncle. The plant is distributed in all forest regions of Senegal to Zaire and has been located in Gambia, Nigeria, Gabon, Ivory Coast, Togo and Tanzania (Day et al., 1990).

Grains of Selim) As Additive
DOI: 10.2478/ats-2014-0017 AGRICULTURA TROPICA ET SUBTROPICA, 47/4, 124-130, 2014 Original Research Article Performance, Antimicrobial Effect and Carcass Parameters of Finisher Broilers Given Xylopia aethiopica Dried Fruits (Grains of Selim) as Additive Jonathan Ogagaoghene Isikwenu, Ifeanyi Udeh, Bernard Izuchukwu Oshai, Theresa Ogheneremu Kekeke Department of Animal Science, Delta State University, Asaba Campus, Nigeria Abstract The effect of graded levels of grains of selim on the performance, gut microbial population and carcass characteristics of finisher broilers was investigated. Two hundred and four (204) 28 days old broiler chicks (Marshal breed) were randomly allotted to four treatments with each treatment having three replicates of 17 chicks each in a completely randomized design. Finely blended grains of selim was administered through drinking water on treatments 2, 3 and 4 at concentrations of 0.5, 0.7 and 0.9 g per litre while chicks on treatment 1 (control) received 1.0 g per 1.5 litre of antibiotics (Gendox). Chicks were fed ad libitum with isonitrogenous and isocaloric diets containing 20% crude protein and 3000 Kcal/kg metabolisable energy for four weeks. Results showed no significant (P > 0.05) differences among treatments in the final body weight, total weight gain, daily weight gain, total feed intake, daily feed intake and feed:gain ratio. There were differences in the microbial population of the gastro-intestinal tract with colony count decreasing as the concentration of grains of selim increases. Carcass characteristics and organ weights were similar (P > 0.05) except for thigh and spleen weights, and large intestine lengths where differences (P < 0.05) exist.

Childs, Department of Linguistics, University of the Witwatersrand, Johannesburg, South Africa Abstract: This paper presents some of the issues involved in preparing a bilingual dictionary for Kisi, an underdocumented language spoken in West Africa. Because the language possesses little in the way of literacy materials, fundamental issues as to orthography, word division, etc., had to be considered. In addition, no grammar of the language (or its closest congeners) was avail able and thus basic grammatical analysis had to be performed simultaneously. I briefly consider some of these problems, discussing the use of the lexical data base programs known as LEXW ARE. I then focus on the specific problems raised by the expressive word class known to Africanists as ) .

Trends in Preventing Medicinal Plants from Extinction in Ado Local Government Area of Ekiti State, Nigeria
Journal of Environmental Issues and Agriculture in Developing Countries Volume 10, Number 1, April 2018 ISSN: 2141-2731 Trends in Preventing Medicinal Plants from Extinction in Ado Local Government Area of Ekiti State, Nigeria M. A. Adeniran M. A. Daramola ABSTRACT This study examines how the medicinal plant species in Ado Local Government Area of Ekiti State, Nigeria could be rescued from further ecological genocide due to human socio and agro-economic development. Combination of social survey and direct field observations are carried out. Semi-structured questionnaire matrix and conversational interviews (two-way communication) based on human exploration of the environment in the last 10 years are employed. The results show that a total of 48 medicinal plant species belonging to 25 different families are discovered to be at risk extinction in the study area. Thirteen (13) medicinal plant species are considered to be endangered, 17 medicinal plant species are threatened, while 18 are considered scarce. The scientific and local names and families of the plants are identified with clues on their medicinal significance. The overall population of medicinal plants species in the study area is on the decline. This work reveals that the extinction agents are mostly humans, consequent upon economic and social development such as agricultural development, urbanization, lumbering and logging, assaultive herb grazing, bush burning and habitat distortions and deforestation. Ex situ conservation (protecting endangered plant species outside its natural habitat) should be introduced in form of botanical gardens, arboretums and parks in the local government area by the Ministry of Environment. Keywords: Forest, imminent extinction, medicinal plants INTRODUCTION The indiscriminate and wanton destruction of tropical forests is alarming and has been a matter of grave concerns to all stakeholders.

The aim of this study was to compare the antibacterial activities of the ethanolic extracts of fruits of X. aethiopic a with ethanolic extracts of bulb of C. jagus. Agar well diffusion method was used against the following organisms: K. pneumonia, E. coli, Ps. aeruginosa, S. aureus, and B. subtilis. Both plant extracts demonstrated concentration dependent activities again st all the bacteria tested. Fruits of X. aethiopica was observed to be more active against S. aureus while bulb of C. jagus showed greater activities against E. coli, K. pneumonia and Ps. aeruginosa. The two plant extracts showed almost the same level of a ctivity against B. subtilis. Phytochemical screening revealed the presence of tanins and cardiac glycosides in X. aethiopica which were absent in C. jagus. In conclusion X. aethiopica showed greater activity against Gram - positive bacteria while C.
