The first of two books which provide an unparalleled reference source and handbook for everyone involved with alkaloid analyses. The first volume gives a comprehensive summary of the literature on thin layer chromatography of alkaloids. It presents the most effective methods for the separation and detection of alkaloids occurring in plant material, biological material, pharmaceutical preparations and drugs of abuse.
Proceedings of the 15th International Symposium on Essential Oils
This volume reviews current knowledge of toxic substances in crop plants with particular reference to their anti-nutritional effects in animals and man and the potential for detoxification. The distribution and ecological significance of these compounds is also addressed. Continuing disquiet over the use of animal by-products in livestock nutrition has provided renewed impetus for the greater exploitation of conventional and novel crop plants both as food and as industrial raw materials. However, a major factor restricting the utilisation of such crops in animal nutrition is the presence of a diverse array of toxic substances capable of inducing effects ranging from loss of hair and wool to ...
The Alkaloids: Chemistry and Pharmacology
Chromatography of Alkaloids, Part A
Internationally acclaimed for more than 40 years, this Series, founded by the late Professor R.H.F. Manske, continues to provide outstanding coverage of the rapidly expanding field of the chemotaxonomy, structure elucidation, synthesis, biosynthesis, and biology of all classes of alkaloids from higher and lower plants, marine organisms, or various terrestrial animals. Each volume provides, through its distinguished authors, up-to-date and detailed coverage of particular classes or sources of alkaloids. Over the years, this Series has become the standard in natural product chemistry to which all other book series aspire. The Alkaloids: Chemistry and Pharmacology endures as an essential reference for all naturalproduct chemists and biologists who have an interest in alkaloids, their diversity, and their unique biological profile. Indispensable reference work written by leading experts in the field Provides up-to-date, timely reviews on compounds and classes of great interest Covers synthesis, biosynthesis, biology, as well as isolation and structure elucidation An essential research tool for anyone working with alkaloids from a chemical or biological perspectiveperspective
Natural product chemistry has undergone an explosive growth during the latter half of the current century. This has been brought about by a number of factors. One of these has been the growing number of sub stances from natural sources which display interesting pharmacological activities. These include antibiotics, anti-tumor agents, immunostimu lants, drugs affecting the cardiovascular and central nervous systems, analgesics etc. Another factor has been the improvements made in the technology of isolation processes which includes the development of such techniques as high pressure liquid chromatography which has al lowed the rapid isolation of substances which were previously diffi cult to ...
In znodern pharznacognosy chemical and physical-cheznical methods are being used znore and more for the investigation of medicinal plants. This important fact and the increasing involvement of chemistry, biocheznistry and botany in pllarmaceuti cal, znedicinal and general biological questions usher in a new epoch in the disco very of medicinal substances and the development of drugs derived from the plant kingdom. One of the guiding ideas of the first ""Syznposiuzn on Pharznacognosy and Phytocheznistry"" was to promote these developments, to provide an additional sti znulus and to establish.
