A group of islands in Melanesia constituting a French overseas territory. The group includes New Caledonia (the main island), Ile des Pins, Loyalty Island, and several other islet groups. The capital is Noumea. It was discovered by Captain Cook in 1774 and visited by various navigators, explorers, and traders from 1792 to 1840. Occupied by the French in 1853, it was set up as a penal colony 1864-94. In 1946 it was made a French overseas territory. It was named by Captain Cook with the 5th and 6th century A.D. Latin name for Scotland, Caledonia. (From Webster's New Geographical Dictionary, 1988, p830 & Room, Brewer's Dictionary of Names, 1992, p375)

Effects of two medicinal plants Psidium guajava L. (Myrtaceae) and Diospyros mespiliformis L. (Ebenaceae) leaf extracts on rat skeletal muscle cells in primary culture. (1/3)

Crude decoction, aqueous and ethanolic extracts of two medicinal plants (Psidium guajava and Diospyros mespiliformis), widely used in the central plateau of Burkina Faso to treat many diseases were evaluated for their antagonistic effects on caffeine induced calcium release from sarcoplasmic reticulum of rat skeletal muscle cells. These different extracts showed a decrease of caffeine induced calcium release in a dose dependent manner. Comparison of the results showed that Psidium guajava leaf extracts are more active than extracts of Diospyros mespiliformis and that crude decoctions show better inhibitory activity. The observed results could explain their use as antihypertensive and antidiarrhoeal agents in traditional medicine, by inhibiting intracellular calcium release.  (+info)

Purified compounds and extracts from Euclea species with antimycobacterial activity against Mycobacterium bovis and fast-growing mycobacteria. (2/3)

Naphthoquinones and other compounds with antimycobacterial activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis have previously been isolated from Euclea species. In this study, several constituents of Euclea natalensis and E. undulata, as well as organic extracts of the leaves, were assessed for efficacy against the zoonotic pathogen, Mycobacterium bovis. Also included in the battery of test organisms were M. bovis BCG and the fast-growing species M. smegmatis and M. fortuitum. The acetone extract of E. natalensis had potent activity against M. bovis (MIC=26 microg/ml). The naphthoquinone 7-methyljuglone was the most active compound, with an MIC as low as 1.55 microg/ml against pathogenic M. bovis. M. bovis BCG was not as susceptible to the test compounds as the pathogenic strain, but similar patterns of activity were observed between all the strains tested. M. smegmatis appeared to be a better predictor of antimycobacterial activity against pathogenic M. bovis (and M. tuberculosis), while MIC values obtained using M. fortuitum correlated well with those of M. bovis BCG.  (+info)

Ebenaceae is a family of flowering plants that includes approximately 700 species, distributed across 5-6 genera. It is a widely distributed family, found in tropical and subtropical regions around the world. The family includes several economically important trees, such as those in the genus Diospyros, which includes persimmons and ebony.

Ebony trees are particularly known for their hard, dense, and dark-colored wood, which has been used for centuries to make high-quality furniture, musical instruments, and other decorative items. The wood is so dense that it sinks in water, and it has a fine texture with a smooth finish.

Ebenaceae family members are characterized by their opposite leaves, small flowers with four or five petals, and fleshy fruits. Some species have medicinal properties, and have been used in traditional medicine to treat various ailments, such as diarrhea, fever, and skin diseases. However, it is important to note that the safety and efficacy of these treatments have not been thoroughly studied or proven by scientific research.

"Diospyros" is a genus of evergreen or deciduous trees and shrubs, belonging to the family Ebenaceae. It includes several well-known species such as the persimmon (D. kaki) and ebony (D. ebenum). The name "Diospyros" comes from the Greek words "dios" meaning Zeus or god, and "pyros" meaning wheat, which may refer to the edible fruit of some species.

The trees in this genus are known for their hard, dense wood that is resistant to decay and insect attack, making them valuable for furniture-making, carving, and other woodworking applications. The fruit of some species, such as persimmon, are also eaten and valued for their high nutritional content.

It's worth noting that "Diospyros" is a scientific name used in the field of botany, and may not be commonly used in medical contexts unless referring to potential medicinal properties of plants in this genus.

I'm sorry for any confusion, but "New Caledonia" is not a medical term or concept. It is actually the name of a group of islands located in the southwest Pacific Ocean, east of Australia. The main island, Grande Terre, is known for its beautiful landscapes, which include mountains, beaches, and lagoons. New Caledonia is a special collectivity of France, and French is one of the official languages spoken there. If you have any questions related to medical terminology or health-related topics, I would be happy to help with those instead!
