Due to the range of useful substances present in the plant, humans have been able to cope with different diseases such as diarrhea, cold, cough, rheumatism, ulcers, among others and with scientific advances it has been possible to test their different biological activities such as antimicrobial, platelet antiaggregation, cytotoxic and antitumor; all this is thanks to compounds such as lignans, alkaloids, flavonoids, coumarins, terpenes, among others. With the realization of this work we seek to know all those advances and studies that have been carried out with respect to the plants of the genus and understand how varied the composition of them is and the great usefulness that they can offer to the human being.ResumenAbstractPlanteamiento del problemaJustificaciónObjetivosObjetivo generalObjetivos específicosMetodologíaMarco teóricoCaracterísiticas morfológicas del géneroDistribución del género Zanthoxylum en colombiaCAPÍTULO I: Fitoquímica del género ZanthoxylumAlcaloidesTerpenosLignanosEsteroidesCumarinasFlavonoidesCAPÍTULO II: Actividad biológica para el género ZanthoxylumActividad antibacterianaActividad antifúngicaActividad citotóxicaActividad antiparasitariaActividad antioxidanteActividad disuasora de la alimentaciónActividad antiinflamatoriaActividad antienzimáticaOtras actividadesCAPÍTULO III: Usos etnobotánicos del género ZanthoxylumConclusionesReferencias bibliográficasapplication/pdfspaCopyright Universidad de Córdoba, 2021Composición química y actividades biológicas del género Zanthoxylum: una revisiónTrabajo de grado - Pregradoinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessAtribución-NoComercial-SinDerivadas 4.0 Internacional (CC BY-NC-ND 4.0)ZanthoxylumActividad biológicaUsos etnobotánicosZanthoxylumBiological activityEthnobotanical uses
