Resumo(s)

Alfalfa (Medicago sativa) has been used as traditional medicine for the treatment of some diseases, being a source of phytoestrogens (mainly isoflavones), with beneficial properties for humans. Furthermore, this plant is widely consumed, either directly ingested as a fresh food or as in the form of derived foodstuffs. Therefore, the comprehensive chemical characterization and the evaluation of different types of bioactivity is of utmost importance.
