Arrabidaea chica (Humb. & Bonpl.) B. Verlt. is a Bignoniaceae widely used in the popular medicine as anti-inflammatory and astringent agent, and for some illnesses as intestinal colic, diarrhoeas, anaemia and diseases of the skin. Its biological properties and dye biosynthesis lead the species to be used in the cosmetic industry. The use of natural products of vegetal origin implies in pharmacognostic quality control and purity assays that compose the technical specifications of the material. Therefore, the anatomical description of mature and young leaves of A. chica was carried through the use of optic microscopy on histological preparations. The leaves are hipostomatic and dorsiventral with heterogeneous mesophile. In petiole, the epidermis is unistratified, it contains trachoma and it is endowed with thin cuticle. The pharmacopoeia assays included the determination of the grain size distribution of the plant drug, the determination of humidity and the total ashes, beyond the phytochemistry approach of tincture, to establish parameters for its quality control.

(2008-12) BARBOSA, Wagner Luiz Ramos; PINTO, Lucianna do Nascimento; QUIGNARD, Etienne Louis Jacques; VIEIRA, José Maria dos Santos; SILVA JÚNIOR, José Otávio Carréra; ALBUQUERQUE, Sérgio de
Arrabidaea chica (HBK.) Verlot (Bignoniaceae) vernacular name "Pariri", is a climbing shrub, widespread from South Mexico to Guyana and central Brazil and is traditionally indicated to treat symptoms of inflammations and skin affections. Its ethanol extract was chemically investigated and tested against yeasts and dermatophytic fungi. The trypanocidal activity of the same extract was also evaluated. This work reports the isolation of three flavonoids, the total growth inhibition of Trichophyton mentagrophytes and a significant trypanocidal effect of the ethanol extract and its fractions. No relevant acute toxicity was detected even at a dose of 1000 mg/kg

(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2008-10-22) ALVES, Mauro Sérgio Marques; SILVA JÚNIOR, José Otávio Carréra; http://lattes.cnpq.br/4437885351749994
This work aimed the physical, chemical, physico-chemical and preformulations characterizing of Arrabidaea chica (Humb. & Bonpl.) B. Verlt., belonging to the family of Bignoniacae, which receives several denominations, and in the Amazon region is known popularly as pariri, that is widely used in popular medicine for the treatment of many diseases, such as skin infirmities caused by dermatitis and eczema. The use of natural products from vegetal origin requires the pharmaco-botanical quality control and pureness analysis which sets the species technical specifications. Therefore, it was made an anatomical description of the young and mature leaves of the plant from observations made at the optic microscope in histological cuts. The pharmacological tests included the determination of the granulometrical distribution of the plants powder, determination of the humidity purport and of total ashes and, about the dyeing, it was made pH, relative density and solids purport determinations, and also it was made the chemical prospection, the chromatographic profile by thin-layer chromatography (TLC) and the highperformance liquid chromatography (HPLC), besides the valuation of its microbial activity. To the powder as well as the dyeing of the A. chica observed the profiles by spectroscopy in the infrared region and thermal profiles by TGA and DTA. Some studies of preformulation were made by spectroscopy in the infrared region and thermal analysis (TGA and DTA) of the binary mixtures of the formula adjuvants suggested to spread the dye, with the purpose to evaluate possible incompatibilities between the dye and these elements. The results obtained evidenced that the A. chica dye demonstrated to adjust to the aim demanded, moreover it assured the compatibility to the tested adjuvants to constitute the proposed formula, once none clue of physical or chemical incompatibilities were observed among them. The studies provided relevant basis to the development of the proposed formula, seeking to obtain quick results with the wished accuracy.

Investigação fitoquímica biomonitorada da tintura 70% de Arrabidaea chica (Humb. & Bompl.) Verlot
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2011) RIBEIRO, Jeane Francisca Alves; SILVA JÚNIOR, José Otávio Carréra; http://lattes.cnpq.br/4437885351749994; BARBOSA, Wagner Luiz Ramos; http://lattes.cnpq.br/1372405563294070
The Arrabidaea chica (H & B) Verlot, popularly known as Pariri or crajirú. Scandentia is a small shrub about 2.5 m high, occurring from southern Mexico to central Brazil, is common in the Amazon, where it is used by Indians for body painting.Popularly tea leaves is indicated for inflammation, anemia, intestinal cramps, regulate menstruation, diarrhea, among others. Recent studies have shown its antioxidant activity and wound healing in vivo and in vitro, and antifungal activity against Trichophyton mentagrophytes and trypanocidal effect. This paper aims to contribute to the validation of the claim of use and to standardize the form of employment A. chica herbal medicine as a resource, since it is in RENISUS. The ethanolic and aqueous extracts of the plant were investigated for their secondary metabolites. Parameters were determined for quality control of the plant drug, through grading, drying powder loss and total ash.Besides the chromatographic profiles obtained by TLC, CLV, LC-MS and LC - DAD. The plant meets the parameters of quality control in accordance with the literature. A CCD profile obtained with the eluent Hexane / Acetone / MeOH (67,5:27,5:5) and revealed with NP / PEG revealed a band with Rf = 0.17 with yellow fluorescence characteristic of flavonoids. In the profile of HPLC - DAD chromatograms were obtained with characteristics of quinones and flavonoids as well. From these results, the work was directed to the isolation, initially with the FAE by fractionation of CLV and analysis of resulting fractions by HPLC-DAD, and as a result suggested the presence of a flavonoid apigenin derivative of the flavonol. The microbiological results corroborate some of its popular uses thus contributing to validate the form of alleged use of the plant.

Triagem de cinco espécies de plantas medicinais usadas na Amazônia através da análise de secreção de histamina
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2013-12-20) OLIVEIRA, Déborah Mara Costa de; CRESPO LÓPEZ, Maria Elena; http://lattes.cnpq.br/9900144256348265
The World Health Organization recommends the study and use of regional medicinal plants as a source of resources to reduce the costs of public health programs and increase the number of beneficiaries, especially in underdeveloped and developing countries. In the Amazon, the practice of herbal medicine is now an integral part of traditional culture, but on many occasions there is a profound lack of scientific knowledge about the effect of these plants. Therefore it is essential to study the scientific basis or not the indication of these plants for treating or preventing diseases. In this context, allergic diseases are the second leading complication that significantly affects the quality of life. In allergies, mast cells are key effector cells participating through the release of several pro- inflammatory mediators, including histamine. The stabilization of mast cells and thus inhibiting histamine release would be a key factor in the prevention and / or control of allergies. Thus the aim of this study was to evaluate the antiallergic potential of 5 or adapted species from the Amazon Connarus perrottetii var.angustifolius (Radlk) (barbatimão do pará), Fridericia chica (Bonpl.) LG Lohmann (pariri), Luehea speciosa Willd (açoita cavalo), Morinda citrifolia Linn (noni ) and Mansoa alliacea (Lam.) AH Gentry (cipó de alho) through the analysis of histamine secretion. Phytochemical screening of the ethanolic crude extracts to 70 % of each plant (fruit, leaves and / or bark) was performed and evaluated the release of histamine from peritoneal mast cells of rat incubated in vitro with different concentrations of the extracts and / or secretory agents (compound 48 /80 and A23187 ionophore). The present study demonstrates for the first time the inhibitory action of these five medicinal plants on the release of histamine. Among these 5 plants, the extract that showed a more potent effect was peeling Connarus perrottetii var. angustifolius ( Radlk ). Further study of this extract showed a low acute toxicity and lack of genotoxicity, which would support its use as a medicinal plant. The aqueous hexane and ethyl acetate fractions of this extract also showed potent inhibitory effect on histamine release induced. The phytochemical analysis by thin layer chromatography revealed the presence of tannins, catechins and flavonoids that could be responsible for these potent effects Through our results, new scientific bases are formed to elucidate the ethnopharmacological information on herbs traditionally used in the Amazon region. Thus, the possibility of investigating alternative therapies with these extracts against allergic affections or conditions in which the secretion of mast cells is relevant, may especially favor the low-income populations and living in areas with limited access to health centers, as often occurs in the Amazon, but otherwise has direct access to medicinal plants.
