NAME crude drugRhizoma Imperatae; reed rhizome
Description:
Posture: herb, grass, creeping, 30-180 cm tall. Trunk: rhizome, creeping under the soil,forming a single inflorescence stems erect, solid, in his book rarely hairy. Leaves:single, base close to each other, strands, ribbon-shaped, sharp pointed tip, straight,coarse, hairy rarely, size 12-80 cm. x 35-18 cm. Flowers: composition compoundcompound grains, rather furl, 6-28 cm long, each branch has 2 grain, 2.5 to 5 cm branch,flower stalks 1-3 mm, gluma 1; tip ciliated, 3-6 veins, Lemma 1 (chaff); broad ovate,short cilia from 1.5 to 2.5 mm. Lemma 2 (husk), elongated, tapering from 0.5 to 2.5 mm.Palea (husks); 0.75 to 2 mm. Stamens: anthers 2.5 to 3.5 mm, yellowish white or purple.Stigma: the stigma of feather-shaped chicken. Fruit: type rice. Seed: shape elliptic, 1 mm long. Flowering time: January to December. Regional distribution, Habitat and Cultivation: In Java grew at a height of upto 2700 m asl, in areas of open or half closed, the marsh; in soil with good aeration, inareas which open out, on the banks of the river; extensive secondary forests; areaburned; as a weed in fields, gardens and plantations. This plant can influence thecultivation of other crops, because it needs a relatively high sodium. Multiplication:multiply by itself. Every time the roots are harvested from plants that have been mature.Pale-colored rhizome good, taste sweet and cool. Reed to couses decrease in soil pH. The amount of decrease in pH and barriers to the process of nitrificationshowed a positive correlation with the growth of reeds.
Curable Disease:
Rhizome: skin softener; peluruh urine, blood cleansers, appetite enhancer, stop the bleeding. in addition it can be used also in treatment efforts venereal diseases(gonorrhea, blood urine, lion king), kidney disease, injury, fever, high blood pressure andnerve disease. All parts of plants used as animal feed, paper materials, and for thetreatment of ringworm. BIOLOGICAL EFFECTS OF PHARMACOLOGY infusa andreed rhizome effect as a diuretic, on the basis of increasing concentrations ofelectrolytes (Na, K, Cl) male white rat urine. Giving infusa reed roots with a dose of 40, 50, 60, 70 g / kg antipyretic effect on the guinea pig. Infusa reed flowers at a concentration of 10% with a dose of 12 ml / kg antipyretic effect of paracetamolsuspensions are relatively equal to 10% in pigeons. Clinical test: Dekokta reed rootswith dose 250-300 g, 2 times morning and evening to cure 27 cases from 30 patients with acute nephritis. In chronic nephritis, herbaceous weeds can reduce edema andlower blood pressure. Dekokta herbs 250 g in the singular or combined with roots and leaves of Nelumbonucifera and Agrimonia pilosa leaves to treat epistaxis (nosebleeds), haemoptysis(coughing up blood), hematuri (urinating blood), menorrhagia, and upper gastrointestinalbleeding. In addition it was reported also that Dekokta reed roots can be effective for the treatment of acute viral hepatitis in 28 cases; usually used together with Plantagoasiatica, Glechoma longituba and Artemisia capillaris buds. Toxicity: In the useaccording to the rules, practically not toxic. Securities not dfinginkan: Dizziness, nausea,increased bowel movements curiosity, sometimes occurs in clinical use.Pharmaceutical Technology: Cellulose leaf weeds on the water absorption has a relatively well in the manufacture of tablets by direct compression.

PART USED:
Only the roots (rhizomes) used for the treatment of
EXAMPLE OF USAGE IN THE COMMUNITY:
As a laxative urine:
49 dried rhizome, cut into pieces and then added with 2 cups of water and boiled untilthe volume of water to 1 cup, filtered, then taken 2 times a day.
Fever due to bloody urination:
1 tablespoon full of reed rhizome, boil with a few pieces of pliers kwe (half-ripe fruit fleshbeligu made candied dried) in two glasses of water to live up to half. This drink 2glasses of water a day. Urine will be normal and the body temperature down.

Composition:
Roots: metabolites that have been found on the roots of reeds, consisting of; arundoin,fernenol, isoarborinol, silindrin, simiarenol, kampesterol, stigmasterol, ß-sitosterol,scopoletin, skopolin, p-hidroksibenzaladehida, katekol, chlorogenic acid, isoklorogenatacid, acid p-kumarat, neoklorogenat acid, acetic acid, oxalic acid, d-malic acid, citricacid, potassium (0.75% of dry weight), large amounts of calcium and5-hidroksitriptamin. From the results of other studies on the roots and leaves found in 5 different flavonoid derivatives ie derivatives 3 ', 4 ' 0.7-trihidroksi flavone, 2 ',3'-dihydroxy kalkon and 6-hydroxy flavanol. A derivative of the possibility of including theclass of flavonoids flavone, flavonol substituted at the 3-0h, flavanones or isoflavonespresent in the soluble fraction in ethyl acetate extract of the roots of the weeds. In thefraction of water-soluble extract of the roots of the weeds found flavone class ofcompounds without the free OH groups, flavonoids, flavonol substituted at the 3-0h,flavanones or isoflavones.
