Abstract

This contribution includes the registry of 28 species of medicinal plants and their derived products used to treat respiratory diseases in theMetropolitan Area of Buenos Aires, Argentina, introduced by Bolivian and Chinese immigrants. Information on these species (their assigned local uses) was obtained from interviews with local informants and from other sources, such as labels, brochures and catalogs, print and electronic. A bibliographic review was carried out on the biological activity and effects studied in order to evaluate its correspondence with the assigned local uses. The degree of visibility of the treated species was analyzed, according to their circulation in the restricted commercial circuits (Chinese and Bolivian immigrants) and the general commercial circuit. Of the total, 17 species belong to the segment of Chinese immigrants, and the remaining 11 to the Bolivian segment. The most frequently reported respiratory conditions are: "asthma", "cough", "bronchitis", "respiratory tract infections", "lung ailments". The immigrant segments play a fundamental role in the conservation of biocultural diversity in the study area.

在阿根廷首都布宜诺斯艾利斯，玻利维亚和中国移民引进的用于治疗呼吸道疾病的植物

这一贡献包括28种药用植物及其衍生产品的登记，这些植物和衍生产品由玻利维亚和中国移民引进，用于治疗阿根廷布宜诺斯艾利斯大都会地区的呼吸系统疾病。关于这些物种(其指定的当地用途)的资料是通过与当地线人的面谈和其他来源获得的，例如标签、小册子和目录、印刷和电子。对所研究的生物活性和效应进行了文献审查，以评价其与指定的当地用途的对应关系。根据其在限制商业回路(中国和玻利维亚移民)和一般商业回路中的流通情况，分析处理物种的可见性程度。其中17种属于中国移民段，其余11种属于玻利维亚段。最常见的呼吸道疾病是:“哮喘”、“咳嗽”、“支气管炎”、“呼吸道感染”、“肺部疾病”。移民群体在研究区生物文化多样性保护中起着基础性作用。
