Abstract
Maxillaria densa is a native American orchid extended in high mountains and humid forests. The objective of this review is to provide a critical analysis on ethnopharmacology, phytochemistry and pharmacology of the species, focusing on its potential for biotrading. The study was conducted exploring the PubMed, Scopus, SciELO and SciFinder databases and specialized websites, looking for bioactive molecules and thus confirming what properties and compounds contain this plant. M. densa is traditionally used for the treatment of stomach pains, such as antidiarrheal and antispasmodic. The extracts obtained from M. densa show the presence of six active ingredients derived from phenanthrene, an aromatic polycyclic hydrocarbon. The biological activity studies carried out have shown spasmolytic, antinociceptive

期刊介绍:
Colombia Forestal Journal publishes original manuscripts on themes of the forest field and various aspects of natural resources and the environment, which are discriminated in the categories of research article, review, reflection and technical notes of agreement with the stipulations of COLCIENCIAS for scientific publications. According to the classification of scientific areas of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD), Colombia Forestal Journal belongs to the large area of Agricultural Sciences (4), Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries (4A) and to the discipline Forestry (4A02). Since its creation in 1978, the journal has been edited and published by the Francisco José de Caldas District University with headquarters in Bogotá. The quality of the content of the journal has been strengthened with the collaboration of national and international external evaluators in a double blind arbitration system and the dissemination has been extended by publishing manuscripts in a language different from Spanish and with inclusion in bibliographical databases such as Scopus. , DOAJ, Scielo, Redalyc, Ebsco, CAB Abstracts of CAB International, Forestry Abstracts, Ulrich''s, Latindex, Publindex. Likewise, it has academic profiles at Mendeley, Academia and Researchgate. The articles that are submitted to Colombia Forestal Journal must be original and unpublished and have not been postulated in other journals.
