It is produced from flowering plants in the genus Corchorus, which is in the mallow family Malvaceae.The primary source of the fiber is Corchorus olitorius, but it is considered inferior to Corchorus capsularis. " Chika Ifeanyi Chukwuma, ... Md. Most leafy vegetables are rich in carotenes, fibre, and minerals. Corchorus trilocularis is an annual plant growing 10 - 150cm tall. Corchorus olitorius var. Corchorus olitorius [1] är en malvaväxtart som beskrevs av Carl von Linné. (Leguminosae), Hertia cheirifolia (L.) Kuntze (Compositae), Hibiscus sabdariffa L. (Malvaceae), Loranthus micranthus Hook.f.

In Africa it is reported as a wild or cultivated vegetable in many countries including Benin, Nigeria, Cameroon, Ivory Coast, Sudan, Kenya, Uganda, Zimbabwe, and Egypt. Scientific name: Corchorus olitorius L. Common names: Jew’s mallow, Wild jute, Wildejute, Thelele, Delele and Gushe Family: Tiliaceae Origin and distribution The origin of Jew’s mallow is unknown, but it has reportedly been cultivat-ed for centuries, both in Asia and Africa. In trade and industry, jute and mesta crop together known as raw jute as their uses are almost same. They are fried or boiled singly or in combination. Nigeria has a great potential for the production of C. olitorius for domestic and export market (Olawuyi et al., 2014). Chakrabarti, in Encyclopedia of Food Sciences and Nutrition (Second Edition), 2003, In the tropics, apart from cultivated leafy vegetables, a large number of leaves from different sources such as perennial trees, aquatic plants, and annuals other than vegetable crops are consumed. Leafy vegetables are mostly used fresh as they are highly perishable. Apart from C. asiatica, these Malaysian plants exhibited α-amy and ACE inhibitions only, without observable α-glu inhibition suggesting that these plants might not have appreciable dual therapeutic effects against diabetes and hypertension. Cassava leaves contain glucosides that may liberate hydrocyanic acid by the action of enzymes. Moreover, the HX extract of A. glomerata was not as potent as chloroform (CL) extract of E. centaurium (IC50 ≃ 74.9, 64.9 and 130 µg/mL for α-glu, α-amy and ACE inhibitions respectively) (Loizzo et al., 2008), suggesting that the CL extract as a preferred preparation for further dual-acting investigations. The leaves are demulcent, diuretic, febrifuge, and tonic; they are medicinally used in the treatment of chronic cystitis, gonorrhea, and dysuria. However, based on the computed anti-diabetic/anti-hypertensive potency ratio (ψ) of the reported medicinal plants, only few of them (12%) and certain extracts appear to be promising for further investigation as potential dual therapeutic agents for diabetes and hypertension. Capsules 3-6.5 cm long1 The Corchorus olitorius is reported to have anti-inflammatory, antiviral, antibacterial and anticancer activities.2-3Earlier, a good number of secondary metabolites were isolated and characterized from this plant. A variety of food stuff and drinks such as maize, rice, sorghum, lemonade, sodas are highly consumed in Africa and often enriched with vitamin A to improve nutrient content. The seeds are purgative. Corchorus, genus of some 40–100 species of flowering plants of the hibiscus, or mallow, family (Malvaceae). Vitamin A is known to play an important role in cell immunity and oxidative stress. ex Spreng, Ginkgo biloba L. (ginkgoaceae), Pouteria lucuma (Ruiz & Pav.) 1983. The plant grows well in the lowland tropics, ranging from warm temperate zones through tropical desert to wet forest life zones. This can be removed by adding a little tamarind or citric acid to the cooking water and then discarding the water. Amaranth, Portulaca, Celosia, and Basella contain appreciable quantities of oxalic acid and oxalates. 5.4 Corchorus olitorius (Malvaceae) C. olitorius commonly known as Nalta jute or Jew’s mallow, is a culinary and medicinal herb, widely used as a vegetable in several countries in Asia and Africa. The seeds are purgative. However, studies on C. olitorius’ Introduction INTRODUCTION Jute (Corchorus sp; 2n=14) is a natural fiber crop and is second in the world after cotton in terms of global production, consumption and availability. C. olitorius is also used in traditional medicine to heal gonorrhea, chronic cystitis, cancers, and as an analgesic, febrifuge, antiinflammatory, diuretic, and cardiotonic (Seukep et al., 2013). 1 0 obj Rich. The plant is a very popular vegetable crop in many tropical countries, where it makes an excellent spinach substitute in areas with hot summers. pauciflorum (Melastomataceae) (leaves), Petalostigma banksii Britten & S.Moore (leaves, fruits and roots) and Petalostigma pubescens Domin (Picrodendraceae) (leaves, fruits and roots) exhibited anti-glycation as well as α-glu, α-amy and ACE inhibitory activities (Deo et al., 2016). 2 0 obj Handbook of Energy Crops. The plant is … Thus, they do not appear very promising for further investigation as dual therapeutic agents, except for very mild cases of the diseases. Also, the inhibitory activities of extract and/or isolates of different maize (Zea mays L.) and strawberry (Fragaria × ananassa [Duchesne ex Weston] Duchesne ex Rozier) varieties, Prunus capuli Cav. T. cordifolia located in tropical Africa, is a shrub of about 5-m high, used in Cameroon as foodstuff as well as in traditional medicine to manage several ailments including microbial infections. Many studies have shown that C. olitorius contains several antioxidants and exhibits anti-inflammatory and anti-proliferative activities in various in vitro and in vivo settings. The HX extract of A. glomerata showed approximately equal α-glu and ACE inhibitions (ψ = 0.95), although the α-glu (IC50 ≃ 187 vs 30 µg/mL) and α-amy (IC50 ≃ 200 vs 45 µg/mL) inhibitory activities were about 6 and 4 times less potent that of acarbose, respectively. (Apocynaceae), Anonidium mannii (Oliv.) 3 0 obj Engl. Both of these problems can be eliminated by boiling and discarding the cooking water. (Polygonaceae), Sarcocephalus latifolius (Sm.) The leaves are shiny and have leaf stalks. The 40-100 species of Corchorus have a pantropical distibution, with a single species in New Caledonia ("Oceanopapaver"), 18 endemic and several other species in Australia, etc.. Corchoruses are annual herbs, or subshrubs or shrubs.The flowers are yellow. R.Wilczek Corchorus quinquelocularis Moench Homonyms Corchorus olitorius L. Common names Jew's-mallow in English Langkapsel-Jute in language. Particularly, the phenolic extracts of C. olitorius leaves demonstrated potent α-glu, α-amy and ACE inhibitory activities with IC50 as low as 21.5 µg/mL and ψ value of ≃ 1 (Oboh et al., 2012), which suggest a potential dual therapeutic agent requiring further investigation. Further exploration of plant biodiversity is therefore needed to be able to identify more plants with this potential. The two main types of jute, white jute (Corchorus Capsularies)and dark jute or tossa (Corchorus Olitorius) are grown in India, Bangladesh, Thailand, China, south Asian countries and Brazil. It has globular fruits. malchairii (De Wild.) Corchorus olitorius L. (Nalta jute or tossa jute) is widely distributed in tropical and sub-tropical region. A flavonoid glucoside identified as trans-tiliroside isolated from the leaves of T. cordifolia was active against E. coli, P. aeruginosa, S. typhi, B. cereus, S. aureus, and S. faecalis (Sandjo et al., 2009). Oxalic acid converts calcium from food consumed to insoluble calcium oxalate, rendering it unavailable for absorption. Jew’s Mallow or Corchorus olitorius is a tropical, annual herb that is upright, branching, and slightly woody. From the above discussions, diverse plant species belonging to different families have been probed for concomitant in vitro anti-diabetic and anti-hyperglycemic potentials. ), Some of the leafy vegetables contain toxic ingredients.
