Dr. Duke's Phytochemical and Ethnobotanical Databases

Abstract

Abstract:\n\nThese Phytochemical and Ethnobotanical databases offer convenient search functionalities for plants, chemicals, bioactivity, and ethnobotany. They cover a wide range of plants and their chemical profiles, allowing users to browse and search in various user-oriented ways. This is a resource that caters to pharmaceutical, biomedical, and nutritional researchers, looking to improve the treatment of diseases in a natural way. The data originates from extensive compilations by a former Chief of USDA's Economic Botany Laboratory, specifically their Handbook of phytochemical constituents of GRAS herbs and other economic plants. Users can download a PDF or spreadsheet format containing chemical lists and their known activities. \n\nInstruction: \n\nData was cleaned and duplicates were removed.\n\nInspiration:\n\nThe dataset was uploaded to UBRITE for "DGR_DEPOT” summer 2023 team project. \n\nAcknowledgements:\n\nDuke, J.
