Fausse moix de muscade
Monodora myristica · African nutmeg
Monodora myristica, commonly known as African nutmeg or koro-koro, is a plant native to West and Central Africa. While its traditional medicinal uses are not well-documented, studies have shown promising results in various areas. High-energy electron beam and gamma rays treatments significantly reduced microbial loads in Monodora myristica powder at doses of 6 kGy, indicating potential antimicrobial applications. Additionally, sterols from the seed oil, specifically campesterol and stigmasterol, demonstrated potential as drug candidates against lipid-associated diabetes complications based on preliminary in silico docking simulations. Monodora myristica spice oil emulsions stabilized with glucan also showed enhanced antibacterial activity against certain foodborne pathogens. Furthermore, it was observed that Monodora myristica and ginger (Zingiber officinale) together enhanced the antibacterial and antioxidant properties of Fontitrygon margarita liver oil against multiresistant bacterial isolates. No major safety concerns or known drug interactions have been recorded for this plant.
