Anacamptis coriophora
Common name: Bug orchid The flowers of this orchid species are small and range in color from green to deep wine-red. The tepals, which are the outer segments of the flower, are fused together to form a hood-like structure above the column. A compound called p-hydroxybenzyl alcohol, which is an aglycone of gastrodin, has been isolated from various terrestrial and mycoheterotrophic orchid species. In experiments conducted on rats, both gastrodin and p-hydroxybenzyl alcohol have shown the ability to facilitate memory consolidation and retrieval. Furthermore, p-hydroxybenzyl alcohol has been found to have skin whitening effects. This is due to its ability to inhibit tyrosinase, an enzyme responsible for the formation of melanin, the pigment that gives color to the skin. |
