      Chilean folklore medicine uses Trevoa trinervis Miers. (Rhamnaceae), 'trevo', for the treatment of inflammation caused by wounds and burns. The antiinflammatory and antipyretic activities of crude methanol, aqueous and ...
    • Christen, Philippe; Bieri, Stefan; Muñoz Muñoz, Orlando (2009)
      A purified stem bark extract from Schizanthus grahamii was analyzed by combining capillary gas chromatography with a selective nitrogen phosphorus detector, mass spectrometry and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. ...
    • Vila, Roser; Milo, Begoña; Cañigueral, Salvador; Adzet, Tomás; Labbé, Cecilia; Muñoz Muñoz, Orlando (1996)
      Essential oil, obtained by hydrodistillation, from fresh leaves of Satureja gilliesii (Grah.) Briq. (Lamiaceae), which is an endemic species of Chile, was analyzed by GC and GC/MS. The major constituents were the oxygenated ...
    • Vila, Roser; Milo, Begoña; Labbé, Cecilia; Muñoz Muñoz, Orlando; Soria, Emma Urrunaga; Soria, Rosa Urrunaga (1996)
      The essential oils of two samples of Satureja boliviana (Benth.) Briq. collected in Peru and Bolivia, were obtained by hydrodistillation, and analyzed by capillary GC and GC/MS. The major constituents of the Peruvian oil ...
    • Muñoz Muñoz, Orlando; Argandoña, Víctor H.; Corcuera, Luis J. (1998)
      Stress, pathogens or insects induce profound changes in the expression of the chemical constituents of plants. Some of these changes could be adaptations to the new conditions or the expression of new defensive characteristics. ...
    • Muñoz Muñoz, Orlando; Christen, Philippe; Cretton, Sylvian; Backhouse, Nadine; Torres, Vanessa; Correa, Olosmira; Costa, Edda; Miranda, Hugo; Delporte, Carla (2011)
      Objectives Aristotelia chilensis leaves (Elaeocarpaceae) are used in Chilean folk medicine to treat pain and inflammation. A bioguided study was carried out on serial extracts (hexane, dichloromethane, methanol, aqueous ...
    • Christen, Philippe; Cretton, Sylvian; Humam, Munir; Bieri, Stefan; Muñoz Muñoz, Orlando; Joseph-Nathan, Pedro (Springer, 2020)
      The genusSchizanthus(Solanaceae) comprises 12 accepted species primarily endemic to Chile. It is characterized by the presence of numerous tropane alkaloids found as ester derivatives of isomeric acids like angelic, ...
    • Humam, Munir; Shoul, Tarik; Jeannerat, Damien; Muñoz Muñoz, Orlando; Christen, Philippe (2011)
      The strict application of IUPAC rules for the numbering of tropane alkaloids is not always applied by authors and there is hence a lot of confusion in the literature. In most cases, the notation of 3, 6/7-disubstituted ...
    • Peña, Raúl C.; Muñoz Muñoz, Orlando (2002)
      The cladistic relationships between Schizanthus species, based primarily on morphology, and chemical characters when available are presented. In this investigation we did not find supporting evidence for the theories ...
