University of Adelaide, Australia - Mike Whitehouse, Ph.D., of emu oil in 1996 will be used to ease the local and remote pain and inflammatory effects were observed. His discovery of the following four areas:
(1) Emu oil inhibition of arthritis, the role of differences;
(2) some of the inhibition of rat polyarthritis particularly effective;
(3) with the use of skin penetration enhancers, emu oil anti-arthritis role be improved;
(4) effectively concentrate by solvent extraction and fractionation procedures, low triglycerides, containing the spectrum of active molecules hoe some conditions,, polyarthritis mice (compared with the traditional anti-inflammatory drugs to pay the the role) has a constant resistance system development
