Herbal smoke fumigation for controlling Penicillium crustosum in fresh walnuts.
Fresh walnuts have a high water content and are susceptible to decay, and controlling fungal contamination during storage is vital to walnut marketing. In this research, the dominant pathogenic fungus of fresh walnuts was first identified as Penicillium crustosum by morphological and molecular methods. The antifungal effect of herbal smoke fumigation was tested in vitro and in vivo, including Myristica fragrans Houtt., Aucklandia lappa Decne., Eugenia caryophyllata Thunb., Atractylodes lancea (Thunb.) DC., Shiraia bambusicola Henn., Artemisia argyi Lévl. et Vant. The results demonstrated that

The genus Artemisia (family Asteraceae) is widely recognized for its medicinal properties, among which artemisinin is the most notable, historically serving as a key antimalarial agent. Accumulating evidence now highlights the significant anticancer potential of Artemisia species, with bioactive compounds such as artemisinin and its derivatives exhibiting promising activity across multiple cancer types. This review provides a comprehensive overview of the molecular mechanisms underlying the anticancer effects of Artemisia-derived compounds, including apoptosis induction, cell cycle arrest, and

Artemisia hedinii occupies an important position in the Tibetan medicine. Plants in Artemisia vary a lot and are widely distributed in the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, many plants in Artemisia look similar, making traditional identification methods laborious. In this article, ITS2 sequences were used as DNA barcoding to identify four kinds of confusable Tibetan medicine plants in Artemisia, aiming to establish a rapid and accurate identification methods. Twenty-one samples in Artemisia were collected from the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, ITS2 sequence PCR amplification and sequencing were conducted after
PubMed: 29052405Phytochemistry and pharmacological activity of the genus artemisia.
Artemisia and its allied species have been employed for conventional medicine in the Northern temperate regions of North America, Europe, and Asia for the treatments of digestive problems, morning sickness, irregular menstrual cycle, typhoid, epilepsy, renal problems, bronchitis malaria, etc. The multidisciplinary use of artemisia species has various other health benefits that are related to its traditional and modern pharmaceutical perspectives. The main objective of this review is to evaluate the traditional, modern, biological as well as pharmacological use of the essential oil and herbal e

El uso de Artemisia lancea debe abordarse con extrema cautela debido a la presencia de compuestos bioactivos como el eucaliptol (1,8-cineole) y el alcanfor, los cuales pueden presentar toxicidad en dosis elevadas. En el caso de mujeres embarazadas y en periodo de lactancia, no se recomienda su consumo. La falta de estudios clínicos robustos en humanos sobre la seguridad fetal hace que el riesgo de efectos teratogénicos (malformaciones congénitas) o alteraciones en el desarrollo embrionario sea una preocupación válida. Durante la lactancia, existe el riesgo de que los terpenoides se transfieran a través de la leche materna, lo que podría afectar el desarrollo neurológico del lactante o alterar su patrón de sueño debido a las propiedades estimulantes de ciertos componentes. Para niños menores de 12 años, el uso debe evitarse estrictamente. Los sistemas enzimáticos y metabólicos en desarrollo de los infantes son más sensibles a los compuestos volátiles; el alcanfor, en particular, puede tener efectos neurotóxicos si se absorbe en cantidades significativas.
