Medicinal Plants: Biodiversity, Sustainable Utilization and Conservation

Plants have been a source of medicines and have played crucial role for human health. Despite tremendous advances in the field of synthetic drugs and antibiotics, plants continue to play a vital role in modern as well as traditional medicine across the globe. In even today, one-third of the world’s population depends on traditional medicine because of its safety features and ability to effectively cure diseases. This book presents a comprehensive guide to medicinal plants, their utility, diversity and conversation, as well as biotechnology. It is divided into four main sections, covering all aspects of research in medicinal plants: biodiversity and conservation; ethnobotany and ethnomedicine; bioactive compounds from plants and microbes; and biotechnology. All sections cover the latest advances. The book offers a valuable asset for researchers and graduate students of biotechnology, botany, microbiology and the pharmaceutical sciences. It is an equally important resource for doctors (especially those engaged in Ayurveda and allopathy); the pharmaceutical industry (for drug design and synthesis); and the agricultural sciences.

Nanostructures for Antimicrobial and Antibiofilm Applications

In the pursuit of technological advancement in the field of biotechnology and pharmaceutical industries to counteract health issues, bacterial infections remain a major cause of morbidity and mortality. The ability of bacterial pathogens to form biofilms further agglomerates the situation by showing resistance to conventional antibiotics. To overcome this serious issue, bioactive metabolites and other natural products were exploited to combat bacterial infections and biofilm-related health consequences. Natural products exhibited promising results in vitro, however; their efficacy in in vivo conditions remain obscured due to their low-solubility, bioavailability, and biocompatibility issues....

In recent years, falsification and digital modification of video clips, images, as well as textual contents have become widespread and numerous, especially when deepfake technologies are adopted in many sources. Due to adopted deepfake techniques, a lot of content currently cannot be recognized from its original sources. As a result, the field of study previously devoted to general multimedia forensics has been revived. The Handbook of Research on Advanced Practical Approaches to Deepfake Detection and Applications discusses the recent techniques and applications of illustration, generation, and detection of deepfake content in multimedia. It introduces the techniques and gives an overview o...
