Haircare is one of the body treatments that still use the medicinal plants. The purpose of the study was to analyze the use of various medicinal plants for haircare by the Dayak Kantuk tribe in Seluan Village, Kapuas Hulu Regency. This present study uses a survey method through interviews with the Dayak Kantuk people in Seluan Village (146 respondents and selected using the purposive sampling technique). The Dayak Kantuk people in Seluan village use 15 medicinal plants for their haircare. The highest use of plant parts was fruit (46.67%) with crushed in the processing method (50%), the administration method was topically (93.33%), and the potions are mainly a single ingredient (73.33%). The plant with the highest use value (UV) was Aloe vera (0.28), while the highest family importance value (FIV) was Arecaceae (28.37). The highest informant consensus factor (ICF) was in the haircare treatment category of ameliorating split ends (1,00). There are six haircare treatment categories with the highest fidelity level (FL) (100%) and plant used, namely: maintaining black hair (Carica papaya), hair nourishing (Apium graveolens), hair softener (Elaeis guineensis and Hibiscus rosa-sinensis), dandruff elimination (Momordica charantia, Citrus aurantifolia, and Morinda citrifolia), hair lice elimination (Paraderris elliptica), and ameliorating split end (Bambusa vulgaris). The use of various species of medicinal plants by the Dayak Kantuk tribe for haircare adds to the knowledge of medicinal plants in West Kalimantan. Keywords: Dayak Kantuk; haircare; medicinal plants

Research on the potential analysis of medicinal plant content has been carried out to support the health of students at the Nurul Islam Sekarbela Islamic Boarding School, Mataram City. Primary data collection is carried out by involving the community through interviews with local community groups and individual community members. The selection criteria were based on the informants' abilities and traditional medical practices. In data collection, the interview technique used was "open ended". This data collection technique is also used to explore knowledge systems regarding the diversity of types of traditional medicinal plants, management methods, their use, and community interest in medicinal plants using medicinal plants. Then it is enriched through secondary data in research, namely books / literature related to health, medicinal plants, journals, and other readings related to research. Based on the results of the interview, the names of medicinal plants commonly used in the community are obtained, including: Shallots (Allium cepa var. Aggregatum), Betel (Piper betle L.), Ginger (Zingiber officinale), Jatropha leaves (Jatropha curcas L. ), Guava (Psidium guajava linn), Turi leaves (Sesbania grandiflora), Lime (Citrus aurantifolia s), Katuk leaves (Sauropus androgynous), Banten (Lannea coromandelica), Kencur (Kaempferia galangal), Lengkuas (Alpinia galangal), Cat whiskers (Orthosiphon aristatus), horse whip (Stachytarpheta jamaicensis L.), Aloe vera (Aloe vera L), Yellow pumpkin (Cucurbita moschata), Papaya (Carica papaya L.), Wuluh starfruit (Averrhoa bilimbi), Cinnamon (Cinnamomum burmanii), Temulawak (Curcuma xanthorrhiza), Celery (Apium graveolens), soursop leaves (Annona muricata Linn), and lemongrass (Chymbopogon nardus L.).

The application of traditional medicinal plants as anti-inflammatory remedies has been practiced in Sri Lanka for thousands of years. Although there is a rich reserve of indigenous knowledge of medicinal plants, the preservation and the scientific validation of these claims are still in its infancy. Thus, the study was carried out in one of the administrative areas of Sri Lanka known as Gampaha District to assess the significance and contribution of medicinal plants in inflammatory conditions. The data were collected through semistructured and open-ended interviews from 458 volunteers. Ethnobotanical data were analyzed using the relative frequency of citation (RFC), family importance value (FIV), and use value (UV). Out of the total participants, 50.7% claimed the use of medicinal plants for the treatment of inflammatory conditions such as fever, cough, asthma, swellings, and pain in the joints. A total of 43 medicinal plants belonging to 28 plant families were mentioned, out of which Coriandrum sativum (RFC = 0.23) was the most cited species. The most cited plant family was Fabaceae, and the family importance value was highest in Apiaceae. The majority of the nonusers of the herbal remedies mentioned that they would shift to herbal products if scientific information is available on the efficacy of these products.

Abstract Background: The present study is the first quantitative ethnobotanical evaluation of Harighal, an inaccessible and unexplored area of District Bagh Azad Jammu and Kashmir (AJK). The major objectives of the present study were exploration, quantification and comparison of ethnobotanical knowledge among different rural communities of the study area.Methodology:Data about traditional uses of important medicinal plants was gathered form 79 informants (49 men and 34 women) using a semi-structured questionnaire. To accesses novelty and agreement of informants about plant use,s various quantitative indices including use value, relative frequency of citation, relative importance, fidelity level and informant consent factor were employed. Furthermore, data presented in the present study was also compared with twenty-two papers published from adjoining areas.Result: A total of 150 medicinal plants belonging to 98 genera and 60 families were documented. Asteraceae, Fabaceae and Rosaceae were the dominant families having 15 species each. Herbs were the most used life form, and leaves were the most exploited plant part. Decoctions were the most preferred method used in preparation of herbal recipes. Mentha longifolia had the highest use value, Berberis lycium had the highest relative frequency of citation and Galium aparine had the highest relative importance value (1.05, 0.81 and 96, respectively). The highest informant consensus factor (ICF) was reported for digestive disorders. Mentha longifolia, Punica granatum, Zanthoxylum alatum and Olea ferruginea had 100% fidelity values. The Jaccard index revealed that uses of plants were more similar in two neighboring areas i.e. Pearl Valley and Toli Peer.Conclusion: In spite of living in the twenty first century, people of the study area still rely very much on herbal medicines as an effective way to treat various ailments. Elders and health practitioners of the study area are well aware of indigenous knowledge about medicinal plants, but young people are not much interested in herbal practices. Thus, valuable knowledge about the use of plants is on the verge of getting lost. The documentation of indigenous knowledge from such an unexplored area and the subsequent pharmacological and phytochemical validation of novel plant uses could serve as baseline for drug development.

Meanwhile, decoctions (47,8%) were commonly utilized as a traditional medicine preparation method. The frequently applied ethnomedicinal plant types were Centella asiatica (1.0) while the highest Fidelity Level value for the management of sprue was Pterocarpus indicus. Also, indigenes in this survey community have traditional wisdom in the treatment of human diseases using these plants. The significant risk to these herbs is the indifference by youths, therefore there is a need to raise awareness within the local societies with focus placed on sustainable utilization and management of both medicinal plants and traditional knowledge.
