I am pleased to bring you Volume 12, Issue 4 of Pharmacognosy Communications. In this issue, we present evaluations of the antibacterial activity of Citrus australasica F.

Nees leaf extracts against bacterial triggers of some autoimmune inflammatory diseases. We also present new research examining the growth inhibitory properties of Kunzea pomifera F.Muell. and Podocarpus elatus R.Br. fruit extracts against some axillary and foot odour producing bacteria, and therefore their potential for odour mitigation. A further study evaluated the potential of phytochemical combinations against polycystic ovarian syndrome in rats. Read more…
