Resumo(s)
The dried leaves of Fraxinus angustifolia and the dried shoots of Mentha suaveolens are used
by the population of the Tras-os-Montes, which is a region located in the northeast of Portugal.
to prepare hot water extracts due to their therapeutic properties. Recently, the contribution of
potysaccharides for the therapeutic properties often attributed to various plants hot water
extracts has been highlighted. This work will provide a structural characterization of the
polysaccharides present in these hot water extracts and will also evaluate their possible
macrophage immunostimutatory activity, which might contribute for the therapeutic properties
reported for these hot water extracts.
