| Research Abstract |
As the third project of comparative study on traditional medicines of Turkic people, we performed ; Field surveys in the area of the Northwest (Aral Sea) region of Uzbekistan (2003), Alborze mountain region along the Caspian Sea in Iran (2004), and Shinjan provinces in China (2005), and Phytochemical analysis of plant materials collected in the field survey, and published 13 scientific reports during these 3 years.
In Uzbekistan, the environmental destruction around Aral Sea has been progressed because of the irrigation of desert nearby Amu Dar Ya basin. Samples of wild licorice (Glycyrrhiza glabra), one of the most popular and the most valuable medicinal plants in this region, and some other medicinal plants were collected for the purpose of evaluation. Although folk healers called "Tabib" inherit the traditional knowledge of folk medicines in Uzbekistan, their knowledge is the mixture of domestic in Uzbekistan and of introduced from Europe during the period of Soviet Union. In 2004, we went into the Alborze mountains where the Turkmen people isolated from Iranian people keep their tradition till today and got some interesting information on folk medicines having similar names and uses to those of Turkey and Uzbekistan. We made field research in the West of China where Uygur, one of a Turkic people, are dominant in 2005, and confirmed that Hotan still keep the tradition of Arabic medicines introduced in the Middle Ages.
