Examination of Wood Properties of Plantation-Grown Pernambuco (Caesalpinia Echinata)

IAWA Journal, 2013
Caesalpinia echinata (pernambuco or pau-brasil), is recognized as the premier wood for manufacturing stringed instrument bows. Owing to limited supplies and concerns regarding species survival, interest exists in establishing pernambuco plantations to provide future bow-quality wood. For native forest- and plantationgrown woods we examined several wood

A proteinase inhibitor from Caesalpinia echinata (pau-brasil) seeds for plasma kallikrein, plasmin and factor XIIa

open access: yesBiological Chemistry, 2004
Caesalpinia echinata is a tree belonging to the Leguminosae family. the red color of the trunk, looking like burning wood ('brasa' in Portuguese), is the origin of the name Brazil.

Biodeterioration of brazilwood Caesalpinia echinata Lam. (Leguminosae—Caesalpinioideae) by rot fungi and termites

International Biodeterioration & Biodegradation, 2007
The heartwood of Caesalpinia echinata Lam. (Leguminosae) (commonly called brazilwood) is used for violin bow manufacture due to the unique vibrational and physical properties found in the wood. In the present work, the effects of Pycnoporus sanguineus (white-rot fungus), Gloeophyllum trabeum (brown-rot fungus), Chaetomium globosum (soft-rot fungus ...

High levels of genetic structuring as a result of population fragmentation in the tropical tree species Caesalpinia echinata Lam.

open access: yesBiodiversity and Conservation, 2005
We have investigated levels of genetic diversity within and among seven remnant populations of Caesalpinia echinata Lam., an endangered species found as fragmented populations in three major areas around the coastal regions of Brazil.

Pernambuco Wood (Caesalpinia Echinata) used in the Manufacture of Bows for String Instruments

IAWA Journal, 2008
The anatomy and the physical, mechanical, acoustical and chemical properties of pernambuco wood (Caesalpinia echinata Lam.) were investigated to determine factors that could explain the different quality of sticks used in bow manufacture. Eighteen sticks were classified into four classes (A to D with A being the best) according to their potential ...

Cassane-type diterpenoids from Caesalpinia echinata (Leguminosae) and their NF-κB signaling inhibition activities

Phytochemistry, 2015
Fourteen cassane-type diterpenoids, echinalides H-U, were isolated from the stem of Caesalpinia echinata Lam. (Leguminosae). The structures of the echinalides were elucidated by spectroscopic investigation, including 2D NMR spectroscopic analysis. The structures of echinalide H and echinalide T were further confirmed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction.

Corniculariella brasiliensis, a new species of coelomycetes in the rhizosphere of Caesalpinia echinata (Fabaceae, Caesalpinioideae) in Brazil

Phytotaxa, 2014
Corniculariella brasiliensis sp. nov. is proposed here as a new species of coelomycetes, based on material isolated from the rhizosphere of Caesalpinia echinata. Corniculariella brasiliensis differs from other congeneric species mainly by the shape and size of the conidia.
