Curiosidades: El mopane, Colophospermum mopane, es uno de los principales árboles de las regiones secas del sur de África. Las partes aéreas del mopane son ricas en aceites esenciales que comprenden principalmente alfa-pineno y limoneno, que son presumiblemente responsables de la fuerte experiencia olfativa de trementina de las vainas.

Evidencia Científica
| Efecto | Ruta utilizada en el experimento | Fuente |
| Repellant | In vivo – longer protection time and greater repellence than
D. anomala which was attributed to the presence of essential oils in C. mopane |
[2] |
| Inhibition of acetylcholinesterase as well as antimalarial, and antimicrobial activities (seeds methanol extract) | Antimicrobial tests , Anti- malaria test, radical scavenging test with DPPH
and Acetylcholinesterase inhibition test – effective against E. coli, S. aureus, K. pneumoniae and E. faecalis. |
