Manfern
Cibotium
Cibotium is a genus of ferns primarily found in tropical and subtropical regions. Traditionally, there are no recorded uses for Cibotium within any known medical or folk traditions. Scientific evidence indicates that nitrogen-doped carbon quantum dots derived from Cibotium barometz exhibit high sensitivity and selectivity for Cu2+ detection, which may have potential applications in environmental monitoring. Additionally, studies suggest shifts in the habitat suitability of Cibotium barometz under future climate scenarios, while also identifying key genes involved in the biosynthesis of bioactive compounds such as polysaccharides, flavonoids, and lignins. A study found that a toothpick method containing Cibotium extract showed some improvement in peri-implant mucositis compared to chlorhexidine and saline groups; however, results are cautiously interpreted due to limited evidence. No major safety issues or drug interactions have been recorded for Cibotium.
