Resumen:
In Argentina grow more than 10,000 spp., and of which close to 1,500 spp. have records on medicinal use. During 1993 to 2003 the Institute of Biological Resources, INTA, made screening on search medicinal and agrochemicals active compounds. The proposal was based in agreement with national (Argentina National Constitution, 1994) and international legislation (CBD ratification, 1994). We have begun to develop a technological model in two species groups with medicinal background, in the Norwest and South (Patagonia) regions of the country. A) BAUHINIA (Caesalpinioideae, Leguminosae): Hypoglycemic. B) North Patagonian species of VALERIANA (Caprifoliaceae) ?valerian?: sleep disorders, sedative and anxiolytic effects.
