Bident penche

Bidens cernua · Bur Marigold

Bidens cernua, commonly known as horseweed or beggarticks, originates from North America and has a long history of traditional use. While its specific applications in traditional medicine are not well-documented, it is noted for its potential biological activities. Scientific studies have shown that cerbiden, derived from Bidens cernua, exhibits high antifungal activity against various Candida species in vitro. Additionally, phenylheptatriyne from the plant demonstrated significant antifungal activity against different yeast strains with minimal inhibitory concentrations ranging from 12.5 to 100 µg/ml. However, the evidence for other potential uses is limited. Bidens cernua was found to be a host for the nematode Meloidogyne hapla, but the exact reproduction factor compared to carrot is not specified in the available data. Safety concerns are minimal based on current information, and there are no recorded drug interactions associated with this plant.
