| Popis: | The Algerian South-West, where this study was conducted, is known by the arid and even desert features of its biotope and plants have always been the main medications for different diseases. The medicinal use of these plants by the local population is mainly based on their empirical knowledge. The betoum, this hardy species scientifically named Pistacia atlantica Desf. is known by its various nutritional and medicinal qualities. Following an ethnobotany investigation done before and through observations on the ground and based on scientific studies our main issue has been developed in the purpose of the valorization of Pistacia atlantica. Drupes and leaves of P. atlantica ssp. atlantica were harvested in an Algerian Southwest region (EL Bayadh) in order to carry out a physico-chemical analysis and a phytochemical screening to determine their composition in primary and secondary metabolites. |
