The book manuscript covers the morphological characteristics,
ethnopharmacological properties, isolated and identified
structurally diverse secondary metabolites, biological and
pharmacological activities of medicinal plants. Ethnopharmacology
is the systematic study of folklore/traditional medicines, which
continue to provide innovative drugs and lead molecules for the
pharmaceutical industry. In fact, plant secondary metabolites, used
as a single molecule or as a mixture, are medicines that can be
effective and safe even when synthetic drugs fail. Therefore, the
description of these secondary metabolites as well as methods for
the targeted expression and/or purification is of high interest.
Moreover, the morphological features, ethnopharmacological
properties, biological and pharmacological activities, and studies
of clinical trials, this book offers a comprehensive treatment of
56 plant species. It also presents the cell culture conditions and
various methods used for increasing the production of medicinally
important secondary metabolites in plant cell cultures. · Provides
the morphological features, habitat, and distribution of each
species of 56 genera selected from the different regions of the
world. · Presents ethnopharmacological applications of various
species of included 56 genera of this book. Different species of 56
genera are used for ethnomedicinal uses by the people of various
countries of the world. · Describes structures of various
secondary metabolites identified 56 plant species together with
their biological and pharmacological activities. · Discusses
strategies of secondary metabolites production, such as organ
culture, pH, elicitation, hairy root cultures, light, and
mutagenesis. · Provides complete overview of each species of 56
genera and the complete information up to year 2022 has been
included in this book. Ethnopharmacological Properties, Biological
Activity and Phytochemical Attributes of Medicinal Plants is an
important book for undergraduate and postgraduate students,
pharmacologists, phytochemists, Ayurvedic practitioners, medical
doctors and biotechnologists interested in the ethnopharmacological
properties, phytochemistry, biological and pharmacological
activities of plants.
