General Uses Top
Suggest a correction!Common products:
Seed oil is the principal documented product. Analyses of Garcinia paucinervis seeds report an oil content of approximately 30% of dry seed, with fatty-acid profiles dominated by oleic and linoleic acids and minor saturated fractions.
Food and beverages (non-medicinal):
The seed oil is reported as edible in Chinese sources, and would be expected to behave like a typical unsaturated edible oil (high unsaturation) suitable for culinary uses when fully refined; no specific culinary processing standards have been established for this species. The mature fruits are described as fleshy in Flora of China, but no culinary product applications have been documented for G. paucinervis.
Fragrance and cosmetics:
While not reported for Garcinia paucinervis itself, oil compositions from related Garcinia species are often used in cosmetics (e.g., soaps and creams) due to favorable unsaturation; any cosmetic application for G. paucinervis oil would require species-specific safety and performance data.
Wood and fiber:
Timber from Garcinia paucinervis is reported in Chinese economic plant literature as suitable for construction and furniture, and the species is listed among minor commercial timbers in China, suggesting potential uses in general carpentry and joinery when species-appropriate grading and treatment are applied.
Properties relevant to use:
The seed oil’s high oleic/linoleic content implies a low-to-medium iodine value typical of semi-drying oils, with relatively low saturated fatty acid content and a measurable acid value (around 1.0 mg KOH/g), indicating suitability for food-grade applications following refining, but high free acidity suggests degumming/refining may be necessary prior to edible or cosmetic use.
Sustainability and sourcing:
The species occurs naturally in parts of China and northern Vietnam; many Garcinia species are harvested from wild populations, underscoring the need for management and conservation in commercial supply chains.
