Arundo donax L. (Poaceae) is a giant reed like grass with versatile economic (biofuel) and biomedical uses. The rhizome of this plant grows horizontally underground and has a storage function which has been the source material for pharmaceutical and biomedical utilizations. Acidic and neutral/ alkaline fractions have been reported to inhibit Prymnesium parvum, ichthyotoxic golden alga.1 In addition, traditional medicine has used A. donax L. as an emollient and a diuretic agent.2,3 Furthermore, basic biomedical research has used the rhizome from which purified n-acetyl-D-glucosamine was obtained.
