Academic literature on the topic 'Santalum paniculatum'

Four commercial qualities of Hawaiian sandalwood oil produced from wood of Santalum paniculatum originating from the island of Hawaii (“The Big Island”) were analyzed using GC and GC-MS. Main constituents of the oils were ( Z)-α-santalol (34.5–40.4%) and ( Z)-β-santalol (11.0–16.2%). An odor evaluation of the oils was carried out against East Indian sandalwood oil. In addition, the chemical composition of Hawaiian sandalwood oil was compared with four different Santalum species originating from East India, New Caledonia, Eastern Polynesia and Australia, respectively.

Objective: Nilavembu Kudineer Chooranam is the combination of nine plant materials. The nine components are Nilavempu (Andrographis paniculata), Vettiver (Vetiveria zizanioides), Vilamiccamver (plectranthus vettiveroides), Santanam (Santalum album), Peyputtal (Trichosanthes dioica), Koraikkilanku (Cyperus rotandus), Cukku (Zingeber officinale), Milaku (Piper nigrum), Parpatakam (Mollugo cerviana). All these plants are used conventionally in the treatment of fever, inflammation, arthralgia, arthritis, gastric ulcer, jaundice, and general weaknes Methods: About 500gm of dried fine powder of Santalum album were soaked in the extractor and macerated for 30 hrs with petroleum ether. On the 22ndday after overnight fast the blood was collected from retro- orbital After the separation of serum from the blood assay of ALT, AST, ALP, γGT and bilirubin were done using standard methods and enzyme assay tests. Results: The preliminary phytochemical analysis of the Chloroform extract of Santalum album reveals the presence of alkaloid, flavonoid, phenol, coumarin, and tannin. The pretreatment of chloroform extract of Santalum album at a dose of 200mg and 400mg/kg (group IV and V) appeared to significantly prevent the galactosamine toxicity as revealed by the hepatic cells which were preserved in cytoplasms. Conclusion: Our findings demonstrated that chloroform extract of Santalum album at both doses possesses hepatoprotective and antioxidant activity, which is evidenced by lowered serum hepatic marker enzyme activities. Among the two dosages tested, 400 mg/kg/body weight showed more promising hepatoprotective and antioxidant activity, and is comparable to the standard drug Silymarin. Keywords: Nilavembu Kudineer Chooranam, Chloroform extract of Santalum album, preliminary phytochemical analysis, Hepatoprotective activity, D-Galactosamine induced hepatotoxicity in rats.

Abstract: Scrub, Lotion, Antioxidants. Turmeric (Curcuma domestica L), Temu giring (Curcuma heyneana), cinnamon bark (Cinnamomum Bumani (nees) BI), Kemuning Leaf (Murraya paniculata (L) Jack) and sandalwood (Santalum album) was often combined in the manufacture of scrubs. This research aims to make Hand & Body lotion formula (H & B Lotion) antioxidant containing traditional herbal extract from the botanicals fifth practical that efficacious, stable, safe and preferred by consumers. This research was true experimental research. The antioxidant activity test was used the immersion method against free radical diphenyl -2- 1.1 picrylhydrazyls, the protection ability test using invitro test while irritation test and hedonic tests conducted on volunteers. Emulsions that tested were containing a traditional herbal extract with a concentration of 0.5%, 1.0%, and 1.5%. This study concluded that the H & B Lotion was stable with emulsifier concentrations of 4.5% Tween 80, the difference in concentration of the extract didn’t affect the protection ability and the safety of the product but it affect significantly on the efficacy of antioxidants and aroma sensory parameters on hedonic test’s results, Optimal antioxidant activity in traditional herbal extract concentration of 1.5%. The best products based assessment hedonic test was H & B lotion with extract content of 1.0%
