Phytochemical characterization and pharmacological evaluation of aerial and root parts of Dalea pazensis Rusby [Fabaceae]

This is the first chemical report of the EO and the deepening of prenylflavonoid content in different extracts of <i>D. pazensis</i>, highlighting the pharmacological relevance of its dual antifungal and antityrosinase profile, a combination of interest for dermatological formulations targeting fungal infections, hyperpigmentation, or post-infectious dyschromias. The findings underscore this species as a promising source of prenylated flavanones with dual antifungal and anti-tyrosinase activity, as well as bioactive volatiles with antifungal activity. The results support its use in developing natural antifungal therapies, particularly against MDR pathogens.
