Dear All, Pl find attached Riped Calotropis gigantea* (Asclepiadaceae family*).Photographed by me during August 2009 in Kaiga. (Ready for dispersion stage 1,2,3,4&5) . It's bark & root are used as medicine for dysentry, its tincture of leaves are used for curing fever, it's latex which is highly poisonous is used as purgative. Also when thorn entered to foot after removing the thorn its milk applied to reduce the pain. -- With Regards, PUTTARAJU K, SCIENTIFIC OFFICER, KAIGA ATOMIC POWER PLANT, POST-KAIGA, U.K.DISTRICT, KARNATAKA -581400 MOB : 9448999150 EMAIL : [email protected] [email protected]
