Acacia pennata
Acacia pennata
Acacia pennata, also known as the Indian or Golden Wattle, is traditionally used by five ethnic groups in southern Assam for rice beer preparation. While its medicinal uses are not well-documented, it has been included among other plants utilized by indigenous people of Nagaland for various purposes. Scientifically, Acacia pennata fibres have shown promising properties such as high cellulose content and good bonding qualities, evaluated through studies on their physico-chemical, structural, thermal, and mechanical characteristics. The compound pinocembrin-7-O-β-D-glucopyranoside isolated from the plant demonstrated potential as a β-lactamase inhibitor against Pseudomonas aeruginosa in vitro tests. As of now, no major safety concerns or drug interactions have been recorded for Acacia pennata.
