Burningbush

Dictamnus albus

Dictamnus albus, also known as white anise or calamus, is a plant traditionally used in various herbal practices. While specific traditional uses for this plant are not well-documented, it has been studied for its biological properties and genetic analysis. Scientific evidence suggests that Dictamnus albus seeds contain high levels of tocotrienols, with 19.70 mg/100 g dry weight found. Pollinator activity varies annually, with H. tarsata consistently identified as a key pollinator, but pollination limitations were observed in one out of three years. The plant's complete chloroplast genome has been sequenced and found to be closely related to Orixa japonica. Additionally, 6-O-α-D-maltosyl-β-cyclodextrin (G2-β-CD-Frax) has shown promise in enhancing the solubility and oral bioavailability of fraxinellone, potentially improving its anti-hepatic fibrosis efficacy in mice. No major safety issues or drug interactions have been recorded for Dictamnus albus to date.
