| Sumario: | "[C]ontains the latest information regarding plant bioactives, from source and extraction, to processing and applications. Plants have always served to meet food-, fuel-, and shelter-related needs of human beings. They also provide most of the world's molecular oxygen and are the basis of the earth's beautiful and impressive ecologies. In the past couple of decades, a great deal of research has been focused to explore the physiological benefits and biological attributes of plant bioactives. In this context, therapeutic medicine, functional food, nutraceutical industry, and researchers are involved in appraising and devising some innovative, eco-friendly, and cost-effective processes/techniques to yield pure and safer natural bioactives and/or their products. A Centum of Baluable Plant Bioactives is a comprehensive resource that focuses on the top 100 plant bioactives along with their sources, medicinal benefits, and biological/pharmaceutical properties. The chapters in the book are grouped by plant vioactive families such as carotenoids, xanthophylls, terpenoids, steroids, and polyphenols, among others to provide thorough knowledge, guidelines, and a framework for general readers, botanists, food technologists, chemists, nutritionists, and pharmacists"--Print version, page 4 of cover. |
