Study to determine if emu oil showed
anti-inflammatory, anti-arthritic activity in laboratory animals. Reported results
from their experiments indicated that "the most potent formulation was
achieved when methyl salicylate(wintergreen oil), isopropanol and menthol
were combined with emu oil" Apparently, a "synergistic effect was
occurring between the emu oil and the methyl salicylate, for the
anti-inflammatory activity of the combination was greater than the sum of
either component when used alone (with isopropanol)."
