He wai hinuhinu kore tae, he kowhai mārama te hinu korowha, he kakara korowha me te kakara tino werawera. Mēnā ka roa te wā e noho ana ki te hau, ka taea te waikura, ka pouri te tae, ka ngāwari te rewa ki te ethyl ether, te acetone, te ethyl acetate me ētahi atu whakarewa waro, ka rewa ki te etanoru, engari he uaua ki te rewa ki te wai. I roto i te rongoā, ka whakamahia hei ārai mate me te patu huakita ā-waha. I roto i te ahumahi, ka whakamahia te nuinga hei hanga i te kakara o te paraihe niho me te hopi, hei rauemi mata rānei mō te hanga i te vanilla.

Ko te hinu korowha he hinu kakara i tangohia mai i ngā puku o te korowha. Ka taea e ia te rongoā i te mamae niho, te mate pūkahukahu, te neuralgia, te waikawa puku, te ātete i ngā mate pūnaha manawa me te pūnaha mimi, te whakamamae i te mamae me te mamae i puta mai i te korere, te whakapai ake i te ngoikore o te tinana me te anemia, me te whakaoho i te hiahia moepuku (te ngoikore o te ira tangata, te makariri o te wairua), te ārai pepeke. Te whakatairanga i te rere o te toto, te rongoā i ngā mate kiri me te mumura o te patunga, te rongoā i ngā scabies, me te whakapai ake i te kiri taratara.

He maha ngā momo matū hohe o te hinu korowha, he pānga patu pepeke, ārai huakita, me te ārai mate, ā, kāore he toenga me ngā raruraru ātete rongoā. Haunga ngā take hauora me te haumaru o te tangata, i whakamahia te Caenorhabditis elegans hei tauira rauropi hei ako i te pānga paitini o te hinu korowha ki ngā nematode. I whakaatuhia e ngā hua whakamātautau ko ngā kukū whakamate-haurua (IC50) o te hinu korowha me te eugenol ki ngā Caenorhabditis elegans he 55.74 me te 29.22 mg/L ia; ka taea e rātou te aukati i te mahi catalase, glutathione me te superoxide Dismutase ka whakararu i te taurite hihiri o te waikura me te ārai-waikura, ā, ka whakaiti i te whakawhānau o ngā nematode. Mā te tātari raupapatanga RNA-seq, i whakamāramahia ngā pānga o te hinu korowha me te eugenol ki ngā nematode mai i te taumata ira, ā, i kitea ko ngā ira e mahi ana ki te mahi pākia o ngā nematode i whakahaeretia, pērā i te E01G6.1, cht-1, C40H1.8, lipl-5, Fat-2, txt-8, fat-4, acox-1.2, dagl-2, pigw-1, me ētahi atu; mā te whakahaere i ngā ira pērā i te hsp-70 me te F44E5.5 ka puta he pūmua i roto i ngā nematode, inā koa ngā pūmua ru wera me ngā mahi ka pāngia. He tino paitini te hinu korowha ki te Caenorhabditis elegans, ā, ka taea te tomo ki te tinana o te nematode hei whakangaro i a ia, ka whakaiti i te kino o te nematode mai i te pakiaka. Ka kitea ka taea te whakamahi i te hinu korowha me ngā matū tuku iho, ā, ka whakaitihia te nui o ngā matū tuku iho, ā, he nui te uara whanaketanga hei patu pepeke matomato i roto i te whakamahinga o ngā mara ahuwhenua.
