ETHNOMEDICINE OF MEDICINAL PLANTS USED BY TRADITIONAL HEALERS TO FACILITATE BONE INJURY HEALING IN WEST KALIMANTAN, INDONESIA
Get PDFABSTRACT
Medicinal plants have been used to facilitate bone injury healing in many communities. West Kalimantan is rich in diversity of medicinal plants and local wisdom owned by ethnic groups. As forest destruction is getting increases, it leads to the extinction of certain medicinal plant species there. Thus, it is crucial to document plant species with medicinal properties and traditional knowledge as valuable information passed down by generation. A semi-structured questionnaire was employed to interview 51 traditional healers from 28 ethnic groups that were selected by purposive sampling method. Field observation and specimen collection were carried out for botanical identification. A quantitative analysis was calculated to obtain plant proportion, Use Value (UV), Family Use Value (FUV), and Informant’s Consensus Factor (ICF). The result revealed there were 134 plant species of 53 botanical families from eight districts in West Kalimantan. Eleven species of plants reported having UV of species at least 0.10 (5 citations). Zingiber officinale was the most frequently used species to facilitate bone injury (22 citations; UV=0.43). The botanical family with the highest number of species was Rubiaceae (13 species) and the highest level of Family Use Value-FUV was Acanthaceae (0.13). The Informant Consensus Factor (ICF) for facilitating bone injury was 0.48. Most of the therapy in this study administered externally (85.07%), used leaves (66.67%), and a mixture composition from several plants (93.28%). The evaluation is critically required to support the medicinal plant’s scientific evidence in facilitating bone injury for both local and global communities. Moreover, the traditional healers need education regarding conservation issues, since most of the plants are still obtained from the wild.

Genetic Diversity and Chemicals Profile of Ginger (Zingiber officinale Roscoe) in Indonesia
Get PDFZingiber officinale is a medicinal plant used to treat various ailments by many ethnic groups in Indonesia. Information on genetic variation and chemical profiling of this plant, especially in the traditional herbal formula in Indonesia, is still limited. The objective of this study was to determine genetic variation and chemical profiling of Zingiber officinale accessions to compile database information. Inter-Simple Sequence Repeats (ISSR) were used to evaluate the genetic diversity of Z. officinale, and Fourier transforms infrared (FTIR) was used to analyze chemical profiling. Dice index similarity was used to calculate a similarity index between accessions, and Unweighted Pair Group Method Using Arithmetic Mean (UPGMA) was used to construct a dendrogram. The ISSR method for genetic profiling proved that Z. officinale from 14 selected ethnic groups were divided into three clusters. The similarity index among Z. officinale accessions ranged from 0.567 to 0.971, indicating high genetic diversity. The high degree of genetic variety detected by ISSR markers demonstrated the marker's efficiency in detecting variation in this Z. offcinale germplasm collection. The FTIR technique's phytochemical profile of Z. officinale analysis shows slight differences in spectra and can be grouped into three clusters. There was no correlation of clustering of Z. officinale accessions between geographical origins based on genetic and chemical profiles. Our findings may be valuable information for breeding, conservation, and utilization of Z. officinale
