Main biomedical activity (established as well as expected from literature data) of the different organic fractions, which have been separated from Antarctic Mumijo. A further potential can be supposed from the inorganic component(s), the minerals, with respect to their ameliorating function in bone diseases. The scheme shows also a cross section through a Mumijo sample from Antarctica (size: 2.5 cm). The layered deposition of the waxy organic material is self-evident.
