Abstract
The natural products are a source of molecules with applications in different fields of human life. This article describes the isolation, identification, and activity of several secondary metabolites obtained from Colombian plants. These include substances with applications in agronomy, human pharmacology, and animal pharmacology. Finally, some aspects related to bioprospection and the use of these compounds are also reported.
