Hot aqueous extract of P. guineense fruit perciarp had in-vitro inhibitory activity against Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli and Aspergillus niger. Ethanol extracts from the peel and pulp of P. guineense and its various factions exhibited antibacterial activity against Streptococcus mutans strains. The antimicrobial activity of the P. guineense species may be attributed to secondary metabolites, taninns, fl avonoids, terpenes and aldehydes present in the fruit. Psidium guineense is used in treating diarrhoeas in Argentinean traditional medicine. In the interior of Brazil, a decoction of the bark or roots is employed to treat urinary diseases, diarrhoea and dysentery and is considered to be diuretic. In Costa Rica, the decoction is said to reduce varicose veins and ulcers on the legs. A leaf decoction is taken to relieve colds and bronchitis. [ Edible Medicinal and Non-Medicinal Plants - Vol-3]
Fresh leaf essential oil: antiinflammatory and antibacterial activity. Fruit: free radical scavenging effect. Leaf essential oil. (Z)-nerolidol,
caryophyllene, β-selinene [ Medicinal flora of Argentina ]
USES: Bark: Bark is boiled, and the water drunk as an anti-diarrheal by the Guyana Patamona. Leaf: Leaves are boiled, and the water drunk as a treatment for coughing or as an anti-diarrheal, by the Guyana Patamona. Fruit: Juice of the young fruit is squeezed and used as an anti-dysenteric or for “bad-belly”, by the Guyana Patamona. [Medicinal Plants of the Guianas (Guyana, Surinam, French Guiana) ]
