  • One for All - Artemisia Absinthium (Afsanteen) “A Potent Unani Drug”
    Review article One for All - Artemisia absinthium (Afsanteen) “A Potent Unani Drug” Ayshah Hashimi1, Mantasha Binth Siraj2, Yasmeen Ahmed3, Md. Akhtar Siddiqui4, Umar Jahangir5* 1,2,3 M.D. Scholar, 4 Professor, 5 Assistant Professor Department of Moalajat, School of Unani Medical Education and Research Jamia Hamdard, New Delhi, India ABSTRACT The therapeutic use of the wormwood plant Artemisia absinthium L. dates back to at least Roman times. There are more than 200 plants in the genus Artemisia- including southern wormwood, petite wormwood and Grande wormwood and encompasses about 500 species. The best-known species of wormwood is Artemisia absinthium, native to temperate Eurasia and North Africa and is branded for its extreme bitterness. It is a magical greens booze used as carminative to support healthy appetite, balances healthy flora, cleanse the digestive tract of parasite and toxins. It possesses anti-inflammatory, immunomodulatory, hepatoprotective, anti-helminthic and anti-depressant activity. Thujone excites nervous system when taken in small amount. Due to contrary history of wormwood, its application in individuals should be preceded by a thorough and cautious risk-benefit analysis. In this appraisal an attempt is done to validate scientifically, mentioned therapeutic potential of Artemisia absinthium in classical Unani literature using PubMed, Science Direct researches.

  • Combinative Effect of Salvia Sclarea L., Artemisia Annua and Dracocephalum Heterophyllum B
    Vol. 7(26), pp. 1916-1925, 10 July, 2013 DOI: 10.5897/JMPR12.1043 ISSN 1996-0875 ©2013 Academic Journals Journal of Medicinal Plants Research http://www.academicjournals.org/JMPR Full Length Research Paper Combinative effect of Salvia sclarea L., Artemisia annua and Dracocephalum heterophyllum B. essential oils against Salmonella enterica in raw chicken Richa Arora, Girish Korekar, Konchok Targais, Ravi B Srivastava and Tsering Stobdan* Defence Institute of High Altitude Research, Defence R & D Organisation, Leh-Ladakh, Jammu & Kashmir, India. Accepted 9 July, 2013 Antibacterial properties of essential oils (EOs) extracted from Salvia sclarea, Artemisia annua and Dracocephalum heterophyllum against 17 food borne pathogens was studied. EOs of the three plants showed a broad spectrum of antimicrobial activity with different degrees of inhibition against the tested Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. EOs of Salvia and Dracocephalum depicted bactericidal mode of action while that of Artemisia inhibited the bacteria with bacteriostatic mode. Salmonella enterica MTCC 733 was the most sensitive strain to Salvia, Artemisia and Dracocephalum EOs with minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) values of 2000, 2000 and 8000 µg/ml, respectively. The antimicrobial activity of EOs individually and in combinations based on their respective MIC values against S. enterica was tested in raw chicken. Treatment of food sample with 20 times MIC value of S. sclarea, A. annua and D. heterophyllum EOs individually caused reduction of bacterial load to 3.36, 3.64 and 4.22 log cfu/g after 180 min. In contrast the bacterial cell loads reduced to an undetectable level by the combinative effect ( Salvia + Dracocephalum and Salvia + Artemisia ) of EOs at MIC value after 120 and 180 min, respectively.

  • Sahnish (Arikara) Ethnobotany
    Kindscher, L. Yellow Bird, M. Yellow Bird & Sutton Yellow M. Bird, Yellow L. Kindscher, Sahnish (Arikara) Ethnobotany This book describes the traditional use of wild plants among the Arikara (Sahnish) for food, medicine, craft, and other uses. The Arikara grew corn, hunted and foraged, and traded with other tribes in the northern Great Plains. Their villages were located along the Sahnish (Arikara) Missouri River in northern South Dakota and North Dakota. Today, many of them live at Fort Berthold Reservation, North Dakota, as part of the MHA (Mandan, Hidatsa, Arikara) Ethnobotany Nation. We document the use of 106 species from 31 plant families, based primarily on the work of Melvin Gilmore, who recorded Arikara ethnobotany from 1916 to 1935. Gilmore interviewed elders for their stories and accounts of traditional plant use, collected material goods, and wrote a draft manuscript, but was not able to complete it due to debilitating illness. Fortunately, his field notes, manuscripts, and papers were archived and form the core of the present volume. Gilmore’s detailed description is augmented here with historical accounts of the Arikara gleaned from the journals of Great Plains explorers—Lewis and Clark, John Bradbury, Pierre Tabeau, and others. Additional plant uses and nomenclature is based on the field notes of linguist Douglas R. Parks, who carried out detailed documentation of the Sahnish (Arikara) Ethnobotany tribe’s language from 1970–2001. Although based on these historical sources, the present volume features updated modern botanical nomenclature, contemporary spelling and interpretation of Arikara plant names, and color photographs and range maps of each species.

The Lakota also make bracelets for the Sun Dance from white sage (Rogers 1980). The Cheyenne use the white sage in their Sun Dance and Standing Against Thunder ceremonies (Hart 1976). Other tribes who used white sage include the Arapaho, Comanche, Gros Ventre, Creek, Navaho, Tewa, and Ute (Nickerson 1966, Carlson and Jones 1939, Hart 1976, Thwaites 1905, Denig 1855, Elmore 1944, Robbins et al. 1916, Chamberlin 1909). The Dakota and other tribes used white sage tea for stomach troubles and many other ailments (Gilmore 1977). The Cheyenne used the crushed leaves as snuff for sinus attacks, nosebleeds, and headaches (Hart 1976). The Crow made a salve for use on sores by mixing white sage with neck-muscle fat (probably from buffalo) (Hart 1976). They used a strong tea as an astringent for eczema and as a deodorant and an antiperspirant for underarms and feet. The Kiowa made a bitter drink from white sage, which they used to reduce phlegm and to relieve a variety of lung and stomach complaints (Vestal and Shultes 1939).

Kholodny Institute of Botany National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine 2 Tereshchenkivska Street Kiev (Kyiv), 01004 Ukraine [email protected] ABSTRACT Corrections and additions are provided for the existing typifications of plant names in Artemisia subg. Tridentatae . In particular, second-step lectotypifications are proposed for the names Artemisia trifida Nutt., nom. illeg. (A. tripartita Rydb., the currently accepted replacement name), A. fischeriana Besser (= A. californica Lessing, the currently accepted name), and A. pedatifida Nutt. For several nomenclatural types of names listed in earlier publications as "holotypes," the type designations are corrected to lectotypes (Art. 9.9. of ICN ). Newly discovered authentic specimens (mostly isolectotypes) of several names in the group are listed and discussed, mainly based on specimens deposited in the Besser and Turczaninov memorial herbaria at the National Herbarium of Ukraine (KW). The Turczaninov herbarium is particularly rich in Nuttall's specimens, which are often better represented and better preserved than corresponding specimens available from BM, GH, K, PH, and some other major herbaria.
