Viruses and plagues have constantly threatened the survival of
humanity since the evolution of modern man. Medical advances,
thanks to the application of remedial plants, have helped to fight
back against some of the most nefarious bacterial and viral
infections, giving humanity a fighting chance. This fourth volume
in the Medicinal Plants in the Asia Pacific for Zoonotic Pandemics
series provides an unprecedented, comprehensive overview of the
pharmacological activity of more than 100 medicinal plants used for
the treatment of microbial infections in Asia and the Pacific. The
text discusses the actions of such plants against viruses and
bacteria representing a threat of epidemic and pandemic diseases,
including COVID-19, with an emphasis on the molecular basis and
cellular pathways. Scientific names, botanical classifications and
descriptions, medicinal uses, and chemical constituents are
presented, along with chemical structures and a vast selection of
bibliographical references. FEATURES Introduces the molecular
mechanism of natural products from medicinal plants in Asia on
bacteria and viruses Includes phylogenetic presentations of a
selection of medicinal plants and a chemotaxonomical rationale of
antiviral and antibacterial actions Discusses the chemical
structure-activity relationship, pharmacokinetics, and
bioavailability of antimicrobial principles This book is a useful
research tool for postgraduates, academics, and the pharmaceutical,
herbal, and nutrition industries looking forward to developing

these plants." -From the Foreword by Dr. Mark S. Butler, MSBChem
