摘要
The Indian clove (Syzygium aromaticum, Myrtaceae) is a well appreciated spice since the ancient times not only by its flavor and culinary qualities, but also because of its therapeutic uses. Several popular and traditional applications have been reported in literature as well as numerous scientific studies on its activities. In this work we present a synopsis and discussion on S. aromaticum to provide the readers some useful information on the historical aspects, the chemical composition and its large variety of potential applications for the treatment of a number of illnesses.
