cork One species, Amur cork tree, Phellodendron amurense , is one of the 50 fundamental herbs used in traditional Chinese medicine. Recently, Phellodendron has also attracted the attention of the pharmaceutical community because of the phytochemicals it produces. Berberine has antibacterial and anti-fungal properties. Jactorrhizine may be anti-mutagenic. Phellodendrine has promise as an immune suppressant. Palmatine may be a vasodilator. The phytochemical descriptions are included for informational purposes only and not for treatment purposes. The research at this stage is very preliminary. Traditionally, the bark is the principal part of the plant used medicinally, although oil from the fruit is also used. The species grows in Northern China, and in the Khabarovsk and Primorskiy regions of Russia.
