Plant Secondary Metabolites Chemistry and Role

A Biosynthetic and Mechanistic Approach

About this book

For centuries the vast and versatile pharmacological effects of medicinal plants and their constituents have played vital roles in biological, economic, social, spiritual, cultural and physiological well-being. This unique text establishes a groundwork in natural product chemistry and phytochemistry by considering the biosynthesis and mechanistic way. There is abundant evidence showing that medicinal plants and their secondary metabolites are useful in preventing different ailments and this book discusses this as well as the mechanisms, amelioration, and biosynthesis of these metabolites. It helps readers to understand the computational, toxicological, cosmetic and nutraceutical aspects of plant secondary metabolites.
