Bush Medicines Of Western Sydney, Hans Wohlmuth
Bush Medicines Of Western Sydney, Hans Wohlmuth
Dr Hans Wohlmuth
The knowledge of traditional Aboriginal use of medicinal plants in the Sydney area is almost non-existent. A number of plants growing in Mitchell Park, northwest of Sydney, are discussed in terms of their potential medicinal use by the traditional owners of the area. In the absence of records of medicinal plant use in the area, the discussion draws upon information from other areas of Australia. Aboriginal health prior to European settlement is also briefly discussed in an attempt to identify some of the ailments Aboriginal people may have found themselves treating with bush medicines. It is concluded that the area …

On Standardised Extracts, Hans Wohlmuth
On Standardised Extracts, Hans Wohlmuth
Dr Hans Wohlmuth
The author discusses the use of standardised extracts versus non- standardised extracts and addresses several issues raised in an earlier paper which he asserts contained grossly inaccurate information, incorrect assertions and insinuations about standardised extracts.

What Are Aflatoxins?, Hans Wohlmuth
Dr Hans Wohlmuth
Aflatoxins are toxic secondary metabolites wh ich are rarely produced by species of mou Ids belonging to the genus Aspergillus. These moulds grow on stored plant foods, in particular peanuts, wheat and corn. In tropical countries an estimated 25% or more of the food may be contaminated with aflatoxins (Raven et al 1992).

Intraspecific Chemical Variability Of Essential Oil From Leaves Of Cupressus Atlantica Gaussen, An Endemic And Endangered Coniferous Species In Morocco, Abdelaziz Abbad, Youssef Sfairi, Hassani Lahcen, Khalid Bekkouche, Mohammed Markouk, Hans Wohlmuth, David Leach
Intraspecific Chemical Variability Of Essential Oil From Leaves Of Cupressus Atlantica Gaussen, An Endemic And Endangered Coniferous Species In Morocco, Abdelaziz Abbad, Youssef Sfairi, Hassani Lahcen, Khalid Bekkouche, Mohammed Markouk, Hans Wohlmuth, David Leach
Dr Hans Wohlmuth
The composition of essential oils isolated from leaves of 11 natural populations of Cupressus atlantica, an endemic and endangered coniferous species from Morocco, was investigated by GC-MS. In total, 42 essential oil components were identified, accounting for 73.1–97.7% of the total oil. Monoterpene (25.2–84.9%) and sesquiterpene hydrocarbons (12.2–46.8%) were the principal subclasses of compounds, with α-pinene (15–65.4%), germacrene D (5.9–30.5%), δ-3-carene (2–16.6%) and γ-cadinene (1.3–9.8%) as the main constituents. The results of the oil composition were analysed by hierarchical cluster and principal component analysis that established three main groups of essential oils. These oils were differentiated …

Detection Of Panax Quinquefolius In Panax Ginseng Using ‘Subtracted Diversity Array’, Linhai Niu, Nitin Mantri, Chun Li, Charlie Xue, Hans Wohlmuth, Edwin Pang
Dr Hans Wohlmuth
BACKGROUND: Food adulteration remains a major global concern. DNA fingerprinting has several advantages over chemical and morphological identification techniques. DNA microarray-based fingerprinting techniques have not been used previously to detect adulteration involving dried commercial samples of closely related species. Here we report amplification of low-level DNA obtained from dried commercial ginseng samples using the Qiagen™ REPLI-g® Kit. Further, we used a subtracted diversity array (SDA) to fingerprint the two ginseng species, Panax ginseng and Panax quinquefolius, that are frequently mixed for adulteration. RESULTS: The two ginseng species were successfully discriminated using SDA. Further, SDA was sensitive enough to detect a …
Diarylheptanoid From Pleuranthodium Racemigerum With In Vitro Prostaglandin E2 Inhibitory And Cytotoxic Activity, Hans Wohlmuth, Myrna Deseo, Don Brushett, Dion Thompson, Graham Macfarlane, Lesley Stevenson, David Leach
Diarylheptanoid From Pleuranthodium Racemigerum With In Vitro Prostaglandin E2 Inhibitory And Cytotoxic Activity, Hans Wohlmuth, Myrna Deseo, Don Brushett, Dion Thompson, Graham Macfarlane, Lesley Stevenson, David Leach
Dr Hans Wohlmuth
Bioactivity-guided fractionation of an ethanolic extract of the rhizome of Pleuranthodium racemigerum, a tropical Zingiberaceae species from North-eastern Australia, resulted in the isolation and structural elucidation of 1-(4″-methoxyphenyl)-7-(4′-hydroxyphenyl)-(E)-hept-2-ene (1), a new diarylheptanoid related to curcumin. Compound 1 was a fairly potent inhibitor of prostaglandin E2 production in 3T3 murine fibroblasts (IC50 ≈ 34 μM) and also displayed moderate cytotoxicity against this cell line (IC50 = 52.8 μM). The compound also demonstrated cytotoxic activity against the P388D1 murine lymphoblast cell line (IC50 = 117.0 μM) and four human cell lines: Caco-2 colonic adenocarcinoma (IC50 = 44.8 μM), PC3 prostate adenocarcinoma (IC50 …
