ANTIMICROBIAL AND ANTIOXIDANT COMPOUNDS FROM THE INFUSION AND METHANOLIC EXTRACT OF Baccharis incarum (WEDD.) PERKINS
In the traditional medicine of the South American highlands, the infusion and decoction of aerial parts of tola, Baccharis incarum (Wedd.) Perkins (Asteraceae) is orally taken as an antiseptic, antipyretic and digestive or externally applied to relieve pain and infammation. A plant infusion and me...
