| English abstract | Leaf infusions from Aloysia citrodora Palau –Verbenaceae-, known as “cedrón” were analyzed in order to establish the possible influence of their development on polyphenols profile. Chromatographic fingerprints of infusions from young and full expanded leaves were performed and total phenols, total tannins, total flavonoids and total hydroxycinnamic acids were quantified. Young leaves had significative higher total phenols, total flavonoids and total hydroxycinnamic acids concentrations than full expanded leaves. This research suggest that the analyzed parameter should be considered when elaborating products from “cedrón” leaves, as the variation in compound concentration may translate in different biological activities |
