• Sapindus trifoliatus (ST) is a medium sized deciduous tree growing wild in south India that belongs to the family Sapindaceae. It is known locally as soapnut tree. The plant has been reported for its high content of saponins and sugars. The saponin moiety is characterized as the hederagenin group of glycosides. The pericarp is reported for various medicinal properties. It is regarded as a tonic, stomachic, spermicidal and is used in the treatment of hemicrania (migraine) etc.[1] A thick watery solution of the pericarp is used for the relief of hemicrania, hysteria or epilepsy.[1] However, there has been no published preclinical/clinical report available for its possible antiinflammatory properties. -- www.findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m0RUE/is_2_37/ai_n13603886

Ethnobotany (Worldwide use) :
• In India and Nepal, the soapnut (sapindus trifoliatus) has been used as a vegetable washing detergent since time immemorial. ... When removed from the tree the soapnuts are sticky and golden in color. They are dried and their color becomes reddish-brown. Then the nuts are cracked and the black kernel, which can neither be eaten nor used for washing is removed and the shells, which contain saponine (a natural detergent), are packed up in cotton bags -- http://www.soapnut.info/
