Description
- Artemisia annua L., namely sweet wormwood, has received increasing attention due to the fact that the plant produces the sesquiterpenoid endoperoxide artemisinin, which today is widely used in the treatment of malaria.
- Malaria is an infectious disease which is seriously harmful to human health with an estimated number of 400 million infections and more than 1 million deaths per year around the world. Artemisia annua Linné is an annual plant that is chrysanthemum family. This plant is primarily found in the tropical zones of Asia along streets and in fields. Since ancient times, Artemisia annua Linné has been used as an antipyretic, hemostatic, as a treatment for skin diseases, and an insecticide.
- In addition, its antibacterial, antiviral and antioxidant properties allow it has been used as a traditional herbalmedicine. This plant also contains various bioactive compounds. Artemisinin, the main element of sweet wormwood, is being used for medical uses, such as anti-malarial activity. [1] [2].
