The investigated plant was known in northern Algeria with its vernacular name Mers’gousse and its rhizome is widely used as an ointment for the treatment of skin burns. The rhizome is rich in starch (0.23 ± 0.01 g/g wet mass, w.m.) and fat (8.0 ± 0.9 g/g w.m.), including sterols revealed by CGMS. In addition, the content of saponin, a substance known to hormonal activity, is of 0.041 ± 0.007 g/g w.m., far exceeding that of some common medicinal plants including ginseng. Regarding the antioxidant activity, the aqueous extract of Mers’gousse has a reducing power equivalent to 0.85 mg of vitamin C/g w.m. The elaborated ointments by two traditional procedures (cold and hot) present rheograms similar to that of Biafine® (ointment of Pharmacy) and which are correctly described by the Cresson’s model (R² = 0.99). Finally, a test done on a volunteer has confirmed the effectiveness of the cream developed for the treatment of skin burns for which the plant is designed in the traditional medicine.
