Two species of the genus Broussonetia, B. kazinoki and B. papyrifera, have been of considerable interest for their ethnomedical uses for the treatment of various human diseases. There is a substantial literature on the utilization of B. papyrifera, in particular, in the paper industry in East Asia. Extracts of Broussonetia species have exhibited various biological activities including antifungal, antiinflammatory, antioxidant, and antispasmodic activities. [Pg.29]

How are intellectual property issues of ethnomedical and ethno-pharmacological information handled ... [Pg.100]

There is no institution in Japan that oversees access to ethnomedical information and the associated plants, or is responsible for collecting that information. [Pg.102]

There appear to be no limits or restrictions with respect to the gathering of ethnomedical information on medicinal plants. [Pg.102]

Two kinds of reports are required a preliminary report immediately after the collecting expedition (including names of collectors, locations, list of plants collected to the species level if possible) and a final report when the research is completed (with the results of the research). Publications based on the research are also requested. Ethnomedical and ethnopharmacological studies exploiting traditional knowledge are not allowed. [Pg.104]

The situation with respect to the mandates of the CBD is much better than ten years ago due to extensive efforts to implement the CBD. However, there is a continuing need to build capacity in the academic and research institutions to understand the CBD. The access to ethnomedical and ethnopharmacological information is covered by the Pakistan Intellectual Property Act which recognised the need to enhance education for researchers about the issues in this area. [Pg.104]

Chicago, shows that of the 58,850 plant species listed in the database, 6,550 species had published experimental antimicrobial activity, of which almost 4000 species had ethnomedical data supporting the use of these plants to treat infectious disease [14, 18], The majority of the plants had activity against a range of bacteria, fungi or Mycobacterium. [Pg.426]

Another common plant that appears to have some activity against MRSA is Hypericum perforatum L., commonly known as St. John s wort. In traditional folk medicine, oily extracts of St. John s wort are used for topical treatment of wounds, bums and myalgia [39]. The lipophilic phloroglucin-derivative hyperforin. Fig. 3, has antibacterial effects and has been shown to inhibit the growth of MRSA at a concentration of 1 (ig/ml [39]. Thus, investigating known plants based on their historical medical (ethnomedical) use is a potentially useful means of discovering new alternative antimicrobial agents. [Pg.428]
