Abstract

To investigate the many bacteriocidal properties of chaulmoogra oil, which are used to treat leprosy and TB. Chaulmoogric acid, an antibacterial substance, is the main active component of chaulmoogra oil. The common name Chaulmoogra is used to refer to the tree Hydnocarpus kurzii, which belongs to the Flacourtiaceae family. Thailand, Myanmar, and India are the native countries of this tree. The two main Indian states where this tree can be found are Assam and Tripura. The ripe seeds of plants like Taraktogenos kurzii King, also called Hydnocarpus kurzii (King) Warb., Hydnocarpus wightiana Blume, Hydnocarpus anthelminticta Pierre, Hydnocarpus heterophylla, and other species of Hydnocarpus that are members of the Flacourtiaceae family are used to make the fixed oil known as chaulmoogra. Chaulmoogra oil has powerful bactericidal effect against the bacteria that cause leprosy and tuberculosis because it contains unsaturated fatty acids. Leprosy, TB, gout, and skin disorders have all been treated with it for millennia in Ayurveda.
