Abstract
Ligand-binding-studies on twelve different receptors were used for scr eening extracts from plants from Suriname (South-America). The results on 5-HT1A, A(1) and NMDA receptors promote further investigation of M icrotea debilis, Hibiscus bifurcatus, Irlbarchia purpurascens, Miconia ciliata and Mimosa myriadena.
