Abstract— The genus Canarium L. consists of 75 species of aromatic trees which are found in the rainforests of
tropical Asia, Africa and the Pacific. The medicinal uses, botany, chemical constituents and pharmacological
activities are now reviewed. Various compounds are tabulated according to their classes their structures are given.
Traditionally canarium solomonense have been used to treat a broad array of illnesses. Pharmacological actions for
canarium solomonense as discussed in this review include antibacterial, antimicrobial, antioxidant, anti-
inflammatory, hepatoprotective and antitumor activity.

I. INTRODUCTION
Canarium is a genus of about 100 species of tropical and
subtropical trees, in the family Burseraceae. They grow
naturally across tropical Africa, south and southeast
Asia, Indochina, Malesia, Australia and western Pacific
Islands; including from southern Nigeria east to
Madagascar, Mauritius, Sri Lanka and India; from
Burma, Malaysia and Thailand through the Malay
Peninsula and Vietnam to south China, Taiwan and the
Philippines; through Borneo, Indonesia, Timor and New
Guinea, through to the Solomon Islands, Vanuatu, New
Caledonia, Fiji, Samoa, Tonga and Palau. [1]
Canarium salomonense B. L. Burtt was formerly used by
Solomon Islands cultures as principal sources of food
(seeds), resin, and wood as well as a variety of
ceremonial activities. Although the species are
botanically quite similar, Babatana and Ririo speakers
from Lauru (Choiseul) Island consider C.
salomonense superior for many uses, particularly in
activities of special spiritual significance. Ethnographic
interviews were used to quantitatively evaluate
hypotheses about community perceptions of
differences between the species. Weighted and
unweighted evaluations were made within emic activity
categories based upon frequency of interaction with
Canarium and importance of species selectivity within
the interaction activity. No significant difference was
found between the species based upon unweighted
frequency of use within activity categories. However, C.
salomonese is significantly more important for use in
activities when its relative cultural importance was used
to weight the comparison. This example supports a
broad conclusion that importance of a species to a
culture is more complex than its simple usefulness. [2]

Pharmacological studies
Antibacterial activity
The antibacterial activity of Canarium solomonense
Roxb, an Ethnomedicinal plant species was studied. The
methanol extract created a larger inhibition zone (16.41
mm) against the bacteria Moraxetta sp. Mucor rouxii
and Rhizopus sp. were similarly inhibited to a high
degree by methanol and ethyl acetate extracts (20.67
and 15.72 mm). [3]
Anti- inflammatory activity
The anti- inflammatory activity of Canarium
solomonense Roxb essential oil was studied. At the
higher dose of EOCS 100 mg/kg, the results showed
dose dependent action. In acute inflammatory animal
models, EOCS demonstrated significant anti-
inflammatory effectiveness when compared to the
conventional medication diclofenac sodium. [4]
Anti-microbial activity
Canarium solomonense gum resin antimicrobial activity
was investigated. Compounds A and B were isolated
from chloroform extract using the counter current
distribution technique. The results reveal that
compound A and compound B have broad-spectrum
antibacterial action at 100g/ml concentrations. For the
gram-positive, gram- negative bacteria and fungi, the
inhibitory action of each drug is very close and identical
in size. [5]
Anti-oxidant activity
Unpredictable stress exposure for 7 days reduced Cu, Zn
superoxide dismutase, and catalase activity, while
increasing glutathione peroxidase activity and lipid
peroxidation, and decreasing glutathione levels in blood
plasma, frontal cortex, and hippocampus. Oral
treatment of EA extract at a dose of 200 mg/kg p.o.
corrected these stress-induced oxidative changes with
an effectiveness comparable to that of melatonin. [6]
II. CONCLUSION
This review highlights the fact that only about 12% of the
total Canarium species have been studied for chemistry
and pharmacological activities. The diversity of
secondary metabolites and pharmacological actions
reviewed in this work demonstrate that there is much
to be discovered in this family. Indeed, as compared to
many other genus in this family, Canarium is still very
much under studied. This could be explained by the fact
that Canarium species are mainly found in primary
rainforest where they face extinction due to intensive
logging and little conservation. There is therefore a
compelling need to study Canarium species which may
shelter some drugs for the future.
