La patentabilidad de la medicina tradicional palenquera: antídoto jurídico para el TLC con estados unidos

In his tenor it argues that the agreement violates existing guarantees for traditional knowledge, contained in instruments such as the Convention on Biological Diversity, Decisions 391 of 1996 and 486 of 2000 of the Andean Community of Nations, and TRIPS. This opens the door for US pharmaceutical companies patented chemical molecules of plants used in traditional medicine palenquera without equitable economic benefits for this community.
