Medicinal plants and their preparations have been widely used for hundreds of years all over the world, both as single herbs or as a combination of several herbs in composite formulae, traditionally extracted in boiling water. Different bioactive compounds (botanicals) are present in these species and their derived-products as key components: all these molecules are known to be quite variable in the plant material, according to intraspecific chemodiversity, different harvest stage or cultivation area, and post-harvest handling. Most studies have focused on the use of plant parts for the extraction of phytochemicals and for the preparation of phytotherapic products.

Abstract
Medicinal plants and their preparations have been widely used for hundreds of years all over the world, both as single herbs or as a combination of several herbs in composite formulae, traditionally extracted in boiling water. Different bioactive compounds (botanicals) are present in these species and their derived-products as key components: all these molecules are known to be quite variable in the plant material, according to intraspecific chemodiversity, different harvest stage or cultivation area, and post-harvest handling. Most studies have focused on the use of plant parts for the extraction of phytochemicals and for the preparation of phytotherapic products.
