When it matures, it forms a columnar tree up to 15 m and may grow up to 30 m. The shiny green leaves, 10 cm long by 5 cm wide, have rounded apexes and golden-brown under leaf and grow in opposites. This study also helped to identify the formula and structure of biomolecules which can be used as drugs. - Fodder: Branches are lopped and given to cattle as fodder. Sariful Islam Howlader, Shubhra Kanti Dey, Arpona Hira, Arif Ahmed / AGRIS: INTERNATIONAL INFORMATION SYSTEM FOR THE AGRICULTURAL SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY These created an interest to test the possible phytochemical activity of the leaves of these plants, which has not been reported. - Fruits plastered on boils and tumors. #Acanthaceae The plants belonging to the genus have both ecological and economic benefits. • Phytoremediation Potential: Study evaluated the absorption, accumulation, and partitioning of Zn, Cu, Pb, Cr and Cd in Avicennia officinalis. / DOI:10.6088/ijes.2013030600045 (10) Influence of Methanolic Extract of Avicennia officinalis leaves on Acute, Subacute and Chronic Inflammatory Models / Sumithra M, Janjanam Vijay kumar, Vidhya sagar Kancharana / International Journal of PharmTech Research, JPRIF, Vol. officinalis were required for the isolation of salt gland-enriched tissues (i.e., adaxial epidermal peels) for subsequent protein extractions. The tree is harvested from the wild for a wide range of uses including medicinal purposes, a source of tannins and timber and a dye plant. Avicennia officinalis is a species of mangrovealso known as Indian mangrove. Shamsunnahar Khushi, Md. Api-api / doi: 10.4172/1948-593X.1000174 - Fuel: Used for fuel in smoking fish, and as firewood. (3) The database and code is licensed under a Evaluation of In Vitro Antidiabetic and Antioxidant Activities and Preliminary Phytochemical Screening of Leaf Extracts of Avicennia officinalis  / Swagat Kumar Das, Dibyajyoti Samantaray and Hrudayanath Thatoi / Bioanal Biomed 9:173-176. Our recent findings on plant hormone signaling (with special focus on gibberellins and abscisic acid) and shoot development led to the discovery of a genetic pathway in the gibberellin signalling (RGL2-DOF6 protein complex inducing the expression of GATA12 gene) that affects primary seed dormancy. Bain or Indian mangrove (Avicennia officinalis, family: Verbenaceae) is a medium-sized evergreen tree of Mangrove forest with breathing roots.It can get a height of 7-25 m. Young trees are usually bushy-natured and get a large crown. This has, therefore, led to the investigation of the antimicrobial activities of methanolic extract of A. officinalis. - Phytochemical screening of ethanol extract of leaves yielded of Philippine Medicinal Plants with Chinese Names. AO also exhibited moderate anti-arthritic activity. The flowers are fragrant and rich in nectar , and are pollinated by insects. Tree growing in native habitat Photograph by: Fagg, M. Richard Morris. • Antioxidant / Antibacterial / Analgesic (3) web interface by - Wood cortex yields a crystalline substance, lapachol. / Leaves: Study evaluated the antioxidant and antibacterial activity of ethanol extract of Avicennia officinalis leaves. http://ecocrop.fao.org/ecocrop/srv/en/home, http://en.sl.life.ku.dk/Publikationer/Udgivelser/PopulaerPublikationer.aspx?katid={D28373CC-6EF3-4EF8-B097-6D83FABF209E}&serieid={9F1C3DB1-6E7B-4CF1-AF53-F480B0CB40EF}&sort=title, Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 3.0 Unported License. • Antioxidant / Radical Scavenging Effect / Leaves: Study of leaves extracts using in vitro assay systems showed antioxidative and free radical scavenging effect. The Acanthus ilicifolius and Avicennia officinalis revealed the presence of medicinal active constituents by GC-MS. The embryos exhibit cryptovivipary, a process where they start to develop before the seed is shed, but do not break through the outside of the fruit capsule. Avicennia officinalis L. is an evergreen species of mangrove which is mainly found in Bangladesh, India, Indonesia, Malaysia, Brunei, Myanmar, Viet-Nam and southern Papua New Guinea but not widely introduced elsewhere[7]. Like other mangroves, the tree has numerous, leafless, blind, erect, conical root-suckers or air-roots, about 8 to 20 centimeters high. • Antibacterial / Stems and Roots: Various extracts of stem and root of Avicennia officinalis were evaluated for antibacterial activity against E coli, Enterobacter aerogenes, K pneumonia, B subtilis, S aureus among others. (7) Diuretic activity was evidenced by electrolyte loss ratio with Na+/K+ excretion ration of 1.52 and 1.33 at doses of 200 and 400 mg/kg, respectively. - The genus Avicennia comprises eight species of mangrove trees that occur in intertidal zones of estuaries and seabeds found in tropical and temperate regions spanning throughout the world.
