Abstract
A review of the data on the chemical composition and biological activity of species of the genus Bistorta Scop. of the world flora was carried out. It was shown that species of the genus Bistorta were of interest as the source of raw materials containing valuable biologically active compounds – phenolcarbonic acids, flavonoids, triterpenoids, and steroids.
