  • Ethnobotanical Survey of Medicinal Plants Used by Ayta Communities in Dinalupihan, Bataan, Philippines
    Pharmacogn J. 2018; 10(5):859-870 A Multifaceted Journal in the field of Natural Products and Pharmacognosy Original Article www.phcogj.com | www.journalonweb.com/pj | www.phcog.net Ethnobotanical Survey of Medicinal Plants used by Ayta Communities in Dinalupihan, Bataan, Philippines Ourlad Alzeus G. Tantengco*1, Marlon Lian C. Condes2, Hanna Hasmini T. Estadilla2, Elena M. Ragragio2 ABSTRACT Objectives: This study documented the species of medicinal plants used by Ayta communities in Dinalupihan, Bataan. The plant parts used for medicinal purposes, preparations, mode of administration of these medicinal plants were determined. The most important species based on use values and informant consensus factors were also calculated. Methods: A total of 26 informants were interviewed regarding the plants they utilize for medicinal purposes. Free and prior informed consents were obtained from the informants. Taxonomic identification was done in the Botany Division of the National Museum of the Philippines. Informant consensus factor (FIC) and use values (UV) were also calculated. Results: Ayta communities listed a total of 118 plant species classified into 49 families used as herbal medicines. The FamilyFabaceae was the most represented plant family with 11 species. Leaves were the most used plant part (43%). Majority of medicinal preparations were taken orally (57%). It was found that Psidium guajava L. and Lunasia amara Blanco were the most commonly used medicinal plants in the Ourlad Alzeus G. Tan- three communities with the use value of 0.814. Conclusion: This documentation provides tengco1*, Marlon Lian C. a catalog of useful plants of the Ayta and serves as a physical record of their culture for the 2 education of future Ayta generations.

  • Chemical Composition of Cyanthillium Cinereum (L.) H. Rob Essential Oil and Its Molecular Docking Study Against Bacterial Proteins
    J. Dharani et al /J. Pharm. Sci. & Res. Vol. 10(9), 2018, 2216-2220 Chemical Composition of Cyanthillium Cinereum (L.) H. Rob Essential Oil and its Molecular Docking Study against Bacterial Proteins J. Dharani, R. Sripathi, S. Ravi* Department of Chemistry, Karpagam Academy of Higher Education, Coimbatore- 641 021, Tamilnadu, India. Abstract Cyanthillium cinereum is known for its medicinal values in different places of the world and gets recognition in traditional medicines like ayurveda. The essential oil composition of the aerial parts of C. cinereum was analysed by GC-MS. Caryophyllene oxide (16.7 %) was the major compound followed by n-hexadecanoic acid (8.9 %) and phytol (7.1 %). Molecular docking study was carried out for the identified compounds against the bacterial proteins (1UAG, 3UDI, 3TYE, 3TTZ, 1JZQ and 2VEG) to study the mechanism of action of antibacterial activity. Ciprofloxacin was used as a standard drug. Caryophyllene oxide showed high scores -6.8, -6.8, -6.4, -6.5, -7.9 and -6.0 K Cal/mol against 1UAG, 3UDI, 3TYE, 3TTZ, 1JZQ and 2VEG proteins respectively. It is concluded that the essential oil components act as antibacterial agents by inhibiting the cell wall synthesis and protein synthesis. Keywords: Asteraceae; Cyanthillium cinereum; Docking; Essential oil; Plant parts. INTRODUCTION GC-MS analysis of C. cinereum was carried out using Agilent In Traditional Medicine plants cure various diseases and so the technologies GC systems (GC-7890A/MS-5975C model) having a analysis and characterization of plant constituents are gaining HP-5MS column (30 m in length x 250 µm in diameter x 0.25 interest among researchers [1].

Abstract. Salamah A, Oktarina R, Ambarwati EA, Putri DF, Dwiranti A, Andayani N. 2018. Chromosome numbers of some Asteraceae species from Universitas Indonesia Campus, Depok, Indonesia. Biodiversitas 19: 2079-2087. Asteraceae is the largest plant family, comprising of more than 1,600 genera and 23,000 species with a worldwide distribution. Many species of Asteraceae are found to be very significantly abundant in a range of habitats and are used as sources of medicines, food, forage, and other useful products. Many cytological studies have been carried out on Asteraceae. However, information about the chromosome numbers of Asteraceae in Indonesia is still very limited. In this study, the chromosome numbers of 15 species of Asteraceae found around the Universitas Indonesia campus were counted. For chromosomal preparations, the root/shoot tips were pretreated with 2 mM 8-hydroxyquinoline, stained with aceto-orcein, prepared using the squash method, and then observed with a microscope. Of the 15 species, 12 showed variation in chromosome numbers: Cosmos caudatus, Elephantopus scaber, Tridax procumbens, Mikania micrantha, Sphagneticola trilobata, Ageratum conyzoides, Cyanthillium cinereum, Chromolaena odorata, Synedrella nodiflora, Youngia japonica, Eclipta prostrata, and Porophyllum ruderale.

MELVIN USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service Central National Technology Support Center 501 W. Felix Street, Bldg. 23 Fort Worth, Texas 76115-3404 ABSTRACT The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (Corps) administers the National Wetland Plant List (NWPL) for the United States (U.S.) and its territories. Responsibility for the NWPL was transferred to the Corps from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) in 2006. From 2006 to 2012 the Corps led an interagency effort to update the list in conjunction with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the FWS, and the USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS), culminating in the publication of the 2012 NWPL. In 2013 and 2014 geographic ranges and nomenclature were updated. This paper presents the fourth update of the list under Corps administration. During the current update, the indicator status of 1689 species was reviewed. A total of 306 ratings of 186 species were changed during the update.

  • Differentiation of Cyanthillium Cinereum, a Smoking Cessation
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Diferentiation of Cyanthillium cinereum, a smoking cessation herb, from its adulterant Emilia sonchifolia using macroscopic and microscopic examination, HPTLC profles and DNA barcodes Kannika Thongkhao1, Veerachai Pongkittiphan1, Thatree Phadungcharoen2, Chayapol Tungphatthong1, Santhosh Kumar J. Urumarudappa1, Thitima Pengsuparp3, Narueporn Sutanthavibul4, Worakorn Wiwatcharakornkul1, Surapong Kengtong5 & Suchada Sukrong1* Cyanthillium cinereum (L.) H.Rob. is one of the most popular herbal smoking cessation aids currently used in Thailand, and its adulteration with Emilia sonchifolia (L.) DC. is often found in the herbal market. Therefore, the quality of the raw material must be considered. This work aimed to integrate macro- and microscopic, chemical and genetic authentication strategies to diferentiate C. cinereum raw material from its adulterant. Diferent morphological features between C. cinereum and E. sonchifolia were simply recognized at the leaf base. For microscopic characteristics, trichome and pappus features were diferent between the two plants. HPTLC profles showed a distinct band that could be used to unambiguously diferentiate C. cinereum from E. sonchifolia. Four triterpenoid compounds, β-amyrin, taraxasterol, lupeol, and betulin, were identifed from the distinct HPTLC band of C. cinereum. The use of core DNA barcode regions; rbcL, matK, ITS and psbA-trnH provided species- level resolution to diferentiate the two plants. Taken together, the integration of macroscopic and microscopic characterization, phytochemical analysis by HPTLC and DNA barcoding distinguished C. cinereum from E. sonchifolia. The signatures of C. cinereum obtained here can help manufacturers to increase the quality control of C. cinereum raw material in commercialized smoking cessation products. Over 1.1 billion people smoke tobacco worldwide, which causes approximately 8 million deaths each year, as reported by the World Health Organization (WHO)1.
