An integrated microscopical investigation of the secretive activity in the above ground parts such as the leaves, petioles, and young stems of the camphor tree (Cinnamomum camphora) was performed. Different kinds of cells were localized accumulating different metabolites as this was demonstrated by histochemical tests. The wide distribution of oil and mucilage cells and other idioblasts was set out. Virtually all palisade cells appeared to be involved in secondary metabolite production which may explain the complexity of the plant extracts and their wide range of therapeutic anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidative effects they have in traditional medicine.
