Functional Benefits of Bioactive Compounds in Foods and Food By-Products
Functional Benefits of Bioactive Compounds in Foods and Food By-Products discusses the role of functional foods in providing micro and macronutrients and bioactive compounds, all of which improve health and reduce the risk of disease, for use in food development. Broken into four parts, this book addresses natural food ingredients for functional foods; applications of natural ingredients in food products; functional food properties with natural ingredients; and a market analysis for functional foods.
Advancement of Phenolic Acids in Drug Discovery
Advancement of Phenolic Acids in Drug Discovery: Fundamental and Applications offers comprehensive coverage of the ADMET profiles of phenolic acids, their extraction method and prospects for drug design and development. Chapters overview phenolic acids and their characterization, discuss the role of phenolic acids in plant systems, present sources and detailed extraction methods of phenolic acids, and cover phenolic acid mechanisms of action as it relates to several key diseases and health conditions, including their role as antioxidant agents, anti-inflammatory and analgesic drugs, anti-microbial drugs, anti-viral drugs, anti-cancer drugs, diabetes and metabolic dysfunctions, neurological d...
Natural Food Additives
Although additives are regularly used in the food industry to improve the organoleptic properties or extend the shelf life of food products, some additives are known to be potentially hazardous if consumed in excess. Increasingly, consumers are avoiding these types of products, highlighting an overall trend toward developing a green and sustainable economy and the emergence of natural additives with equal or greater benefits than synthetic ones. This book is an introduction to the use of natural food additives. It includes eleven chapters that discuss emerging compounds used as food additives and active packaging, molecular gastronomy, enzyme production in the food industry, and much more.
Specialized Plant Metabolites as Cosmeceuticals

This book will be a valuable asset for researchers and graduate students of chemistry, botany, biotechnology, microbiology, cosmetology and the pharmaceutical sciences. As medicinal plants are a rich source of a variety of bioactive secondary metabolites, their wide range of pharmacological applications as antibiotics, antifungals, anticancer a...
Computational Drug Discovery of Medicinal Compounds for Cancer Management
Cancer is still a major public health concern, and it is regarded as one of the leading causes of mortality globally. Despite significant advances in biotechnologies, developing practical and innovative small molecule drugs remains a difficult, time-consuming, and expensive task that necessitates collaborations from many experts in multidisciplinary fields such as computational biology, drug metabolism, and clinical research, among others. Therefore, new drug development procedures that save time and cost while increasing efficiency are in high demand. In silico screening in combination with molecular simulations, has become an increasingly important aspect of modern drug development process...
Handbook of Food Bioactive Ingredients
Bioactive ingredients, including both bioactive compounds and bioactive live organisms, are present in small amounts in natural sources such as fruits and vegetables. These ingredients have been continuously investigated during the last few decades and the epidemiological data suggest that their intake is associated with significant decreased risk of various disorders and chronic diseases owing to their anti-oxidant, anti-bacterial and anti-inflammatory qualities. Some of these natural ingredients such as catechins, curcumin, resveratrol, oleuropein, quercetin, rutin, hesperidin, sulforaphane, ellagic acid, and anthocyanins, have been studied as factors with possible direct or indirect effec...
Functional Foods
The phytochemicals present in functional foods play a vital role in boosting immunity and promoting health. This book provides a comprehensive overview of the importance of functional foods and antioxidants and their scavenging activity for preventing various health-related disorders. This book also covers the therapeutic and medicinal potential of various bioactive compounds for a healthy lifestyle, as well as examines different products containing functional ingredients that demonstrate health-promoting potential.
