They also investigated two closely related species : " Hydnocarpus wightiana " and " Hydnocarpus anthelmintica ."
Hydnocarpus wightiana seed oil has been widely used in sulfonamides and other antibiotics for the treatment of several skin diseases and leprosy.
However, it has later been clarified that the actual Chaulmoogra referred to in Sanskrit texts for the treatment of Leprosy, as " Tuvaraka " is actually Hydnocarpus wightiana.
The seeds of this plant have been confused with " Hydnocarpus wightiana " as the Chaulmoogra oil, which is used in Indian medicine to treat several skin conditions and diseases.
The oil mentioned in the Ayurvedic texts was determined to be from the tree " Hydnocarpus wightiana ", known as " Tuvakara " in Sanskrit and " chaulmugra " in Hindi and Persian.
