Bioactivity
Reported biological activities for the plant species in the collection, from a 2023 literature review.
About this data
This data comes from a 2023 literature review compiled by researchers at UMass, who searched published research on the plants in the collection to see what biological activity had been reported for each one. The results are sorted into the seven types shown above.
A few things to keep in mind. This was a one time review and we are still verifying and refining it. It describes the source plant, not the cell lines we grow, and it is not a test run at Tufts. We plan to keep expanding and updating it over time.
The 158 species in the collection with a reported activity, grouped by the exact combination of activities reported for each, so each species is counted once. Click a row to list its species, or an activity's name to list every species with it.

Research use
Activity annotations describe the source plant species, as reported in the literature. They are not validated properties of the cultured cell lines, and not health claims.
