“…Thus, the mineral constituents of QI may provide benefit to bone metabolism and prevent or even reverse osteoporosis. The QI gall extract is thought to have a variety of pharmacological properties including anti-diabetic [29], anti-tremor [30], local anesthetic, antiviral [31], antibacterial [32], anti-fungal [33], larvicidal [34], antimicrobial [35], anti-inflammation [36], wound healing [37] and many more. Umachigi et al [38] found noticeable antioxidant activity in the QI gall extract, as the extract inhibited the superoxide and 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activities, and tyrosinase activities [39].…”

The galls of the Quercus infectoria (QI) tree are traditionally believed to have great medicinal value. Pharmacologically the galls are claimed to have various biological activities such as astringent effect, antidiabetic, antitremorine, local anaesthetic, antipyretic, anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, antiviral and many more. These pharmacological activities of gall extracts were reported to be due to its excellent antioxidant activity with phytochemicals constituents of phenolic and flavanoid compounds. The phenolic compounds or polyphenols can act on bone metabolism by modulating osteoblast proliferation, differentiation and mineralization, as well as osteoclastogenesis. In addition, elemental and physico-chemical analysis indicated the presence of important minerals in QI, such as calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, oxygen, potassium, aluminium, carbon, zinc, iron, manganese, nickel and silica. The current review will be focusing on the potential bone health benefits of the well-known traditional herbal medicine, QI or locally known as the "manjakani".

Quercus infectoria seeds were used in the present study, and fatty acid content in fixed oil was determined using GC-FID. The total amount of the oil present in the seed was 7.2%. The major fatty acid identified were oleic acid (58.13%), linoleic acid (19.84%), palmitic acid (15.99%), stearic acid (2.27%), α-linolenic acid (1.31%) and other constituents like heptadecanoic acid, cis-11-eicosenoic acid, cis-10-heptadecenoic acid, behenic, lignoceric and myristic acid with less the 1%. Due to its phenolic compounds and α-tocopherol, the oil exhibits its antioxidant activity. Antioxidant properties of the oil were determined via DPPH radical scavenging and β-carotene bleaching assay. The physical properties and UV and FT-IR spectra were also determined.
