Riassunto:

Bioactive compounds obtained from natural sources has proven to possess various therapeutic potentials. Although they have proven its therapeutic efficacy for ages but a major limitation is difficulty in the extraction of single compound from its mixture. The volume 1 of the book is an important step to help the readers understand about the principles and practices associated with the extraction, stabilization and therapeutic applications of various bioactive compounds obtained from natural sources. The book provides information on various innovative techniques those are involved in the extraction processes i.e. from the conventional strategy of extraction to advanced technologies. Stability of bioactive compounds are also an important factor. Thus this book also focuses on this issue by highlighting various strategies comprising of freeze-drying, encapsulation and nanotechnology. This volume will focus on antimicrobial, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and various other therapeutic properties of the compounds and their applications as cosmetics, nutraceuticals and pharmaceuticals. Thus this book would have a comprehensive know-how of bioactives from extraction to application.
