Medicinal plants are accumulating impurities from increasing
environmental pollution. Pollutants have altered growth features,
gas exchange parameters, biochemical attributes, bioactive
substances, antioxidant activity, and gene expression. This book
brings to light these conditions and a need to alter them. Plants
are the natural source of medicines mainly due to the presence of
secondary metabolites and have been used as medicine in crude
extract form. They have been used to isolate the bioactive
compounds in modern medicine as well as in herbal medicine systems
and are used worldwide as a valuable source for new drug
formulations. This book focuses on secondary metabolites,
phytochemicals, and bioactive compounds associated with medicinal
plants growing in contamination conditions. There is no existing
book on this topic.
