Abstract
Atalantia buxifolia (Poir.) Oliv. is widely distributed in Central and Northern Vietnam, as well as in several countries, including India, China, Taiwan, Japan, Malaysia, and the Philippines. This species is traditionally used for treating flu, headaches, coughs, tracheitis, malaria, stomachache, rheumatoid arthritis, backache, and knee pain. However, to date, there have been no published studies on the botanical characteristics of this species. The study describes the morphological, anatomical and ADN barcode of Atalantia buxifolia (Poir.) Oliv. to provide the information for identifying this species. Simultaneously, the results of the analytical preliminary phytochemistry of powder from this plant also demonstrated that the stems and leaves of Atalantia buxifolia (Poir.) Oliv. contain essential oil, triterpenoids, alkaloids, tannins, coumarins, and saponins.
Tóm tắt
Cây quýt gai (Atalantia buxifolia (Poir.) Oliv.) được phân bố nhiều ở miền Trung và miền Bắc Việt Nam, cũng như nhiều nước trên thế giới như Ấn Độ, Trung Quốc, Đài Loan, Nhật Bản, Malaysia, Philipin. Loài này được dùng để trị cúm, cảm mạo, đau đầu, ho, viêm phế quản, sốt rét, đau dạ dày, viêm khớp xương do phong thấp, đau lưng, gối. Tuy nhiên, đến nay vẫn chưa có công bố về đặc điểm thực vật học của loài cây này. Do đó, nghiên cứu được tiến hành nhằm mô tả đặc điểm hình thái, giải phẫu, bột dược liệu, mã vạch ADN của cây quýt gai để cung cấp cơ sở dữ liệu giúp định danh loài. Đồng thời, kết quả nghiên cứu cho thấy thân cây và lá cây quýt gai có chứa các nhóm hợp chất tinh dầu, triterpenoid, alkaloid, tannin, coumarin và saponin.
