ABSTRACT

Analisa os processos de assimilação e transformação de saberes e práticas terapêuticas que envolvem o uso de plantas medicinais, e destaca o uso, no combate à lepra, do óleo da chaulmoogra. Atenta para os diferentes modos de incorporação e transformação das chaulmoogras em conhecimentos validados cientificamente, tendo em vista a entrada em cena da 'chaulmoogra brasileira'. Privilegia a chegada dos derivados dessa planta à pauta de produção do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz (IOC), na década de 1920, estabelecendo nexos entre os diferentes processos produtivos e articulando-os ao contexto científico no período estudado. O óleo de chaulmoogra representou, até a década de 1940, a grande esperança para a tentativa de cura da lepra. Observa ainda que a terapêutica chaulmúgrica durante esse período, consolidou-se como um saber científico graças à realização de diversas pesquisas feitas em laboratórios de todo o mundo ocidental.


The article investigates how knowledge of medicinal plants and related treatment practices are assimilated and transformed. Taking as its focus the use of chaulmoogra oil to treat leprosy, it examines how information on this plant was incorporated and transformed into scientifically validated knowledge when 'Brazilian chaulmoogra' came onto the scene. Pointing to the addition of chaulmoogra byproducts to the Instituto Oswaldo Cruz's production agenda in the 1920s, the study establishes links between productive processes and relates these to the period's scientific context. From the late nineteenth century until the 1940s, chaulmoogra oil was the great hope in efforts to cure leprosy. During this period, chaulmoogric treatment earned a place as scientific knowledge thanks to research studies conducted in laboratories throughout the Western world.

ABSTRACT

En los generos que pertencen a la familia de las flacourciáceas existen numerosas especies cuyas semillas poseen una elevada proproción de sustancias grasas que presentam un interés extraordinario desde el punto de vista terapeutico. El examen de la bibliografia que a esta materia se refiere descubre la dificultad que entraña el conseguir una sistematización de los datos hasta ahora aportados por los investigadores. Con la excepción de escasas especies de estas plantas, que han sido bien estudiadas desde el punto de vista botánico y quimico, el resto aparece difuso y complejo

ABSTRACT

"CHAUOLMOOGRA" is no longer a strange-sounding name, for of late it has appeared frequently in newspaper dispatches as a possible cure for leprosy, and in fact two constituents of Chaulmoogra oil, chaulmoogric and hydnocarpic acids, but especially their ethyl esters, have proved efficacious in the treatment of that dreadful disease. These acids were first isolated and described and their esters prepared nearly twenty years ago by Dr. Frederick B. power and his assistants

ABSTRACT

The choline ester of chaulmoogric acid has a small but definite muscarine-like activity, slightly greater than that of molescularly equivalent amounts of choline. In addition it has direct harmful effects upon tissues. A fraction of the ester may be rapidly hydrolized to form choline chaulmoograte. Chaulmoogrylcholine is unsuited for antileprosy use since its toxicity precludes administration of significant amounts of chaulmoogric acid in this form.

ABSTRACT

In reviewing recent progress in the chemistry of leprosy treatment one is not impressed so much by any really new discovery as by the fact that so little was definitely known or generally accepted five years ago. It is not difficult to pick out important facts now widely accepeted and made use of in the treatment of leprosy, and to note that someone knew (or at least believed) this, that, and the other, ten, one hundred, or one thousand years ago. It is important, however, to recall that such quasi knowledge was so confounded with erroneous beliefs as to have very little effective value
