Ducane Kunzea Oil

Background

Kunzea Oil was discovered in 1993 when Tasmanian farmer John Hood decided to do some investigating after he realized his 35 year old northern boundary fence hadn't gone rusty like all his other fences of a similar age.

He eventually worked out that the wire fence netting had been protected by an oil from a certain type of plant which was growing near the fence and rubbing against it.

Mr Hood had the oily plant identified as Kunzea ambigua - a Tasmanian native found in the Eastern parts of the State.

Given its obvious rust inhibiting properties, Mr Hood decided that the oil must contain a fairly powerful anti-oxidant and that got him thinking about other uses for anti-oxidants.

He became totally convinced that the oil had medicinal properties after an incident one day when he spilled some of a sample he had distilled on to his hand and then rubbed his nose. At the time he was sufferring from a very badly blocked nose, having developed a severe sinus problem from nasal damage he incurred when working in a gold refinery a few years earlier. The immediate result was that it 'blew the sinus problem away' he said.

Mr Hood then began a period of research and development which was to culminate in the Theraputic Goods Administration granting approval for Kunzea Oil to be used as a medicine for external use.

In 1998 the University of Tasmania's Aquahealth testing laboratory found that Kunzea Oil was an effective killer of bacteria that are life threatening to humans and resistant to antibiotics.

Currently doctors in France are evaluating the oil's clinical potential.
