Have you tried searching on CAB Abstracts database? This is an agriculture and
life sciences database produced by CABI Publishing which includes abstracts in
your area - it is available via DIALOG...(or see CABI home page at
http://www.cabi.org)

The subset of records that you are interested in are also available as a print
journal called 'Review of Medicinal and Aromatic Plants'.  The journal covers
the core medicinal and aromatic plant journals and also a very wide range of
sources including medical general science, botany, agriculture, chemistry,
biotechnology and pharmaceutical journals and includes over 3,000 records per
year.  See http://www.cabi.org/catalog/journals/absjour/5c.htm

CABI also run a search service if you want a one-off search across the
database- you can order this via e-mail to: biblioserv at cabi.org (See also
http://www.cabi.org/infolib/libserv/libserv.htm)

Hope it goes OK!
