Cotylelobium lanceolatum

Cotylelobium lanceolatum

Cotylelobium lanceolatum is a plant traditionally not used for medicinal purposes. Scientific studies have focused on its potential applications, particularly in enhancing food packaging materials through the incorporation of phenolic extracts and nano selenium into carboxymethyl chitosan/PVA films. Additionally, research has identified new resveratrol trimer derivatives and isolated three new resveratrol oligomers along with their O-glucosides from the plant. The findings suggest potential bio-inspired wood protectants but are primarily based on preliminary studies. No major safety concerns or drug interactions have been recorded to date.
