Dr. Duke's Phytochemical and Ethnobotanical Databases

Of interest to pharmaceutical, nutritional, and biomedical researchers, as well as individuals and companies involved with alternative therapies and and herbal products, this database is one of the world's leading repositories of ethnobotanical data, evolving out of the extensive compilations by the former Chief of USDA's Economic Botany Laboratory in the Agricultural Research Service in Beltsville, Maryland, in particular his popular Handbook of phytochemical constituents of GRAS herbs and other economic plants (CRC Press, Boca Raton, FL, 1992). In addition to Duke's own publications, the database documents phytochemical information and quantitative data collected over many years through research results presented at meetings and symposia, and findings from the published scientific literature.
The current Phytochemical and Ethnobotanical databases facilitate plant, chemical, bioactivity, and ethnobotany searches. A large number of plants and their chemical profiles are covered, and data are structured to support browsing and searching in several user-focused ways. For example, users can

get a list of chemicals and activities for a specific plant of interest, using either its scientific or common name
download a list of chemicals and their known activities in PDF or spreadsheet form
find plants with chemicals known for a specific biological activity
display a list of chemicals with their LD toxicity data
find plants with potential cancer-preventing activity
display a list of plants for a given ethnobotanical use
find out which plants have the highest levels of a specific chemical

References to the supporting scientific publications are provided for each specific result. Resources in this dataset:Resource Title: Duke-Source-CSV.zip. File Name: Duke-Source-CSV.zipResource Description: Dr. Duke's Phytochemistry and Ethnobotany - raw database tables for archival purposes.

对于药理学、营养学及生物医学研究者而言，亦适用于涉足替代疗法及草药制品的个人与公司，该数据库乃全球首屈一指的植物学数据宝库。其起源可追溯至美国农业部经济植物学实验室（位于马里兰州贝尔茨维尔）前任主管所进行的广泛汇编，尤其是其广受欢迎的《GRAS草药及其他经济植物的植物化学成分手册》（CRC Press，博卡拉顿，FL，1992年）。除了杜克本人的出版物，该数据库还记录了多年通过会议和研讨会展示的研究成果以及科学文献中的发现，所收集的植物化学信息及定量数据。
当前植物化学与植物学数据库便于植物、化学、生物活性及植物学领域的搜索。涵盖了大量植物及其化学特征，数据结构旨在支持多角度的用户浏览与搜索。例如，用户可以通过以下方式获取特定植物的化学成分及活性列表，无论使用其学名还是俗名；下载化学成分及其已知活性的PDF或电子表格；查找具有特定生物活性的植物；显示含有LD毒性数据的化学成分列表；寻找具有潜在抗癌活性的植物；显示特定植物学用途的植物列表；了解含有特定化学成分含量最高的植物。
每个具体结果均提供了支持的科学出版物参考文献。本数据集包含的资源：
