Most manuka is harvested from wild plants as very little commercial cultivation is yet carried out. There are several different manuka chemotypes. The 'coast' type contains low levels of monoterpenes and relatively high levels of sesquiterpenes and triketones. It has been suggested that this accounts for its higher antimicrobial activity. In fact, Manuka essential oil's claim to fame lies in its high triketone content which is specific to the East Cape of New Zealand where the tree's ability to cope with harsh environmental conditions is legendary.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMethod of Extraction\u003c\/strong\u003e:\u003cstrong\u003e \u003c\/strong\u003eManuka oil is steam distilled from the leaves and twigs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCultivation\u003c\/strong\u003e: Conventional\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHistorical and Traditional Uses\u003c\/strong\u003e: The leaves of manuka were used by the early Maoris as topical applications for wounds, cuts, sores and skin diseases.
