Ambrosia arborescens
Ambrosia arborescens
Ambrosia arborescens is a plant traditionally not associated with any specific medicinal uses. Scientific studies have shown that its essential oil exhibits moderate anticholinesterase activity and limited antioxidant capacity, while microwave-assisted extraction using ethyl lactate yielded similar compound profiles but slightly higher antioxidant activity compared to traditional methanol maceration. The ethanolic extract demonstrated a dose-dependent decrease in tumor volume in rats with induced breast cancer. However, the aqueous extract at 2000 mg/kg caused mild congestion in kidneys and liver with increased biochemical parameters, though no significant toxicological changes were observed in other organs. To date, there are no major safety concerns or recorded drug interactions noted for Ambrosia arborescens.

Was die Wissenschaft sagt
- Der etanoliche Extrakt von Ambrosia arborescens zeigte eine dosisabhängige Reduktion des TumorsIZES in Ratten mit induziertem Mammakarzinom.
- Das Essenzialöl von Ambrosia arborescens zeigte eine mittlere Antikolinesterasenaktivität und begrenzte抗氧化能力。
- Die Studie zeigte an, dass die mikrowellengeführte Extraktion mit Ethyl-Laktat ähnliche Komplexprofile und leicht höhere Antioxidationsaktivität erzielte, verglichen mit der traditionellen Methanol-Maceration bei Ambrosia arborescens.
- Der wasserige Extrakt von Ambrosia arborescens in einer Dosis von 2000 mg/kg verursachte leichte Konkretionen bei den Nieren und Leber mit erhöhten biochemischen Parametern, zeigte jedoch keine signifikanten toxikologischen Veränderungen in anderen Organen.
