Abstract: Davana (Artemisia pallens) ia an important high valued annual medicinal and aromatic herb of India belonging to the family Asteraceae. India has a monopoly in production and export trade of davana oil and India stands 3rd in essential oil production in the world. This study was conducted at Department of seed science and technology, TamilNadu Agricultural University, Coimbatore to determine the seed developmental and maturation studies in davana. The bulk davana crop was raised in the field. Individual flower heads were tagged at the time of flower opening. The seeds were collected at 5 days intervals and subjected to the following seed quality assessment. The observation made on seed moisture content (%), 1000 seed weight (mg), germination %, seedling length (cm), dry matter production and vigour index. The results revealed that physiological maturity of davana seeds was attained on 35th day after anthesis, where in germination percentage (86), seedling length (2.3), vigour Index (198) and dry matter production (1.23mg) were higher. Keywords: Davana, seed development and maturation, germination %, seedling length, drymatter production, vigour index. I.

Indian Journal of Basic and Applied Medical Research; March 2019: Vol.-8, Issue- 2, P. 154 - 157 Original article: Study of evaluation of antimicrobial property of different concentrations of Artemisia pallens (Davana) extract against Streptococcus mutans serotype c (ATCC 25175) Dr Pankti Gajjar , Dr Rahul Deshpande , Dr Tarun Kukreja Department of Pedodontics , Dr D Y Patil Dental College and Hospital , Pimpri , Pune [ Dr DY Patil Vidyapeeth ] Corresponding author* Abstract Introduction: Caries is recognized as the greatest prevalent disorder existing around the world since times .Caries is nearly the common of all diseases and partly because of its relatively rapid progress, and correlation of various factors i.e bacteria, dental plaque ,saliva, fermentable carbohydrates and concentration of different ions in the environment surrounding the tooth determines the extent and the rate at which metabolic events may result in net loss of mineral and development and progression of the lesion. In adolsecents , caries is the particular cause of loss of teeth..” Methodology: The microbial inhibition assay was performed by standard norms and protocol by using the agar well diffusion method. Five different concentrations of Artemisia pallens (Davana) extract and 0.2% chlorhexidine as a gold standard was evaluated for their antimicrobial properties(Zone of Inhibition) in triplicate against streptococcus mutans serotype c(ATCC 25175). Adequate amount of Mueller Hinton Agar was evenly distributed over the surface of 15 cm diameter petridish to a thickness of 5 mm and was allowed to solidify under aseptic conditions. Results and Conclusion: This study evaluated the bacterial growth inhibition of the derived acetone extracts of Artemisia Pallens plant.

DAVANA Plant Profile Family : Asteraceae Indian Name : Davanam
D AVAN A Plant Profile Family : Asteraceae Indian name : Davanam (Sanskrit), Marikolundu (Tamil), Davana (Hindi, Kannada). Spices and Varieties : Artemisia pallens Wall. Distribution : India Uses : Cosmetics, Flavouring beverages & Confectionery Davana (Artemisia pallens Well.) (2n=16), belonging to the family Asteraceae, is an important annual aromatic herb, much prized in India for its delicate fragrance. The Davana springs are commonly used in garlands, bouquets and religious offerlings in most part of the country. The leaves and flowers contain the essential oil valued for its exquisite and delicate aroma and is used in high=-grade perfumes and cosmetics. The oil of Davana contains hydrocarbons (20%), esters (65%) and oxygenated compounds (15%). The esters are the major constituents responsible for the characteristic smell of Davana. Saponification of the oil gives 10% cinnamic acid, while the alcohol part gives viscous oil with a high boiling point. It is reported that a new sesquiterpene ketone called cis-davanone in the oil is responsible for its characteristic odour. The other constituents isolated from the oil include a sesquiterpene ketone named ‘artemone’, novel sesquiterpenoids named.’davanafurans’ and another ketone named ‘isodavanone’. The essential oil of Davana which is a brown, viscous liquid with a rich, fruity odour has acquired a considerable reputation in the international trade, particularly in USA and Japan where it is being used for flavouring cakes, pastries, tobacco and beverages. Origin and Distribution The plant grows wild in the temperate Himalayas. It is common in the Kashmir Valley, the Simla and Nanital Hills. It is being commercially cultivated in Karnataka, Maharastra, Kerala, Tamil Nadu and Andhra Pradesh in an area of about 1000 ha.

The methanol extracts of two parts showed high activity against the bacteria and fungi tested. The minimum inhibitory concentrations of the methanol extracts of aerial parts were determine against standard bacteria and fungi using the agar plate dilution method. The minimum bactericidal concentrations and minimum fungicidal concentrations were determined using the macro- broth dilution method. The antibacterial activity of five reference drugs and the antifungal activity of two reference drugs were determined against four bacteria and two fungi and their activities were compared with the activity of the plant extracts. The extracts was also evaluated for its cytotoxic activity using Brine shrimp lethality bioassay method.

Thus, a replacement of these synthetics by antioxidant extractions from various foods has been proposed. More than 8000 different phenolic compounds have been characterized; fruits and vegetables are the prime sources of natural antioxidants. In order to extract, measure, and identify bioactive compounds from a wide variety of fruits and vegetables, researchers use multiple techniques and methods. This review includes a brief description of a wide range of different assays. The antioxidant, antimicrobial, and anticancer properties of phenolic natural products from fruits and vegetables are also discussed. Keywords: antimicrobial; antioxidants; medicinal plants; BHT 1. Introduction Many antioxidant compounds can be found in fruits and vegetables including phenolics, carotenoids, anthocyanins, and tocopherols [1]. Approximately 20% of known plants have been used in pharmaceutical studies, impacting the healthcare system in positive ways such as treating cancer and harmful diseases [2].

Analgesic and Anti-Inflammatory Properties of Artemisia Pallenswall
Pharmacologyonline 1: 567-573 (2010) Newsletter Ashok et al. Analgesic and Anti-Inflammatory Properties of Artemisia Pallens Wall Ex.Dc Praveen Kumar Ashok1*, Manoj Kumar Sagar1, Himansu Chopra1, Kumud Upadhyaya2 1. Faculty of Pharmacy, GRD(PG)IMT, Dehradun. 2. Faculty of Pharmacy, Kumaun University, Bhimtal, Nanital. Summary Artemisia pallens was studied for anti-inflammatory action by carrageenin-induced rat paw edema. The analgesic activity was tested by tail flick method and hot plate method in albino rats and mice. The methanolic extract of Artemisia pallens in doses of 100, 200 and 500 mg/ml showed 68.85, 74.53 and 81.13% inhibition of paw edema respectively at the end of three hour. In the hot plate and tail flick model, the methanolic extract of Artemisia pallens in the above doses increased the pain threshold significantly also administration of Artemisia pallens showed dose dependent action in all experimental animal models. The plant had Saponins, flavonoids, Sesquiterpenoids, Oils, Phenols and Tannins. The results of the present study suggest that Artemisia pallens has potent analgesic and anti-inflammatory activities.
