In Europe the possibility of a medical application of Südseemyrte by botanist Joseph Banks observed, a member of James Cook's expedition. He observed how the different components of the Maori Südseemyrte related to that disease, such as Gastro-intestinal disorders, diseases of the bladder, colds, skin diseases and even to cure sores. This prepared the Maori also a brew, after which the British slang term "Tea Tree" (engl.: tea tree) was created.
Initially, the effectiveness of the plant was investigated, but the research was quickly stopped when they spotted the beginning of the twentieth century, penicillin. The antibacterial effect of Südseemyrte was rediscovered in the 30's, as New Zealand dairy farmers fed their cows with the bushes and realized that these less frequently affected.
Meanwhile, we have investigated the chemical aspects of Südseemyrte and found that some highly active substances are included.
