Abstract(s)
The hot water extracts (HWE) from Pterospatum tridentatum dried inflorescences are used
in the northeastern portuguese region of Trás-os-Montes due to its therapeutic properties,
namely against rheumatism, bladder, liver and kidney disorders [1]. The therapeutic properties
attributed to hot water extracts from plants are often related with polysaccharide
macrophage immunostimulatory activity [2].
