Chemistry and Nutritional Effects of Capsicum
The Capsicum genus comprises the botanic species known as chili peppers, the most widely consumed natural product by humankind. Their usage is diverse and varies from food additives to defensive devices and medicines. Providing a comprehensive overview of the great popularization and socioeconomic importance of Capsicum, this book includes a holistic description of the properties of Capsicum and how this correlates with the chemical profile. Several of their specialized metabolites, such as capsaicinoids and carotenoids, are in fact responsible for peppers characterization as a functional food as they provide pungency, deterrent properties and outstanding biological activities such as antiox...
Essential Oils
Essential oils, well-known for their remarkable properties, have played a ubiquitous role throughout human history. They connect us to our past, invoking memories of childhood places and the aromas of our grandparents' kitchens. From the fragrant scents of ancient Egypt to the natural preservatives found in 15th century Oriental spices, essential oils have the ability to stimulate, numb, and captivate our senses through their effects on the central nervous system. This book presents several innovative studies on the isolation, biological, and pharmacological properties of essential oils, conducted by multidisciplinary groups from different countries.
Medicinal and Aromatic Plants of South America
This volume in the series deals with the major Medicinal and Aromatic Plants (MAPs) of South America, providing information on major aspects of this specific group of plants on that continent (botany, traditional usage, chemistry, production/collection practices, trade and utilization). Brazil, in particular, offers an immense amount of biodiversity, including plants with great pharmacological interest and ethno-medicinal importance. Contributions are from internationally recognized professionals, specialists of the Medicinal and Aromatic Plant domain and have been invited mostly from the members of the International Society for Horticultural Science and International Council for Medicinal and Aromatic Plants.
Studies in Natural Product Chemistry
Natural products in the plant and animal kingdom offer a huge diversity of chemical structures that are the result of biosynthetic processes that have been modulated over the millennia through genetic effects. With the rapid developments in spectroscopic techniques and accompanying advances in high-throughput screening techniques, it has become possible to isolate and then determine the structures and biological activity of natural products rapidly, thus opening up exciting opportunities in the field of new drug development to the pharmaceutical industry. Studies in Natural Products Chemistry covers the synthesis or testing and recording of the medicinal properties of natural products, providing cutting edge accounts of the fascinating developments in the isolation, structure elucidation, synthesis, biosynthesis and pharmacology of a diverse array of bioactive natural products. - Focuses on the chemistry of bioactive natural products - Contains contributions by leading authorities in the field - Presents sources of new pharmacophores
Frutas Nativas e Exóticas do Brasil Nutrição e Biodiversidade
Esta obra inédita foi frutificada em capítulos autorais e/ou colaborativos que compilam as mais robustas publicações científicas sobre as frutas nativas e exóticas do Brasil. Uma abordagem que traduz a ciência da nutrição em estratégias práticas do uso sustentável das frutas nativas e exóticas, bem como apresenta o impacto à saúde humana e ao ecossistema de saúde planetária. Trata-se de um modelo pioneiro, que visa à valorização da biodiversidade brasileira, disseminação do conhecimento, à sistematização e à transformação das mais diversas civilizações, contribuindo, de tal modo, para o desenvolvimento sustentável proposto pela Organização das Nações Unidas...
Coleta e preparo de amostras biológicas
Os exames laboratoriais são testes realizados em diferentes amostras biológicas e têm como objetivo apoiar diagnósticos e auxiliar no acompanhamento de desfechos clínicos e tratamentos. Em análises clínicas, qualquer variação, seja na amostra em si, seja no instrumento ou equipamento utilizado, pode alterar os resultados laudados e interferir na conduta médica, impactando diretamente a saúde do indivíduo. O trabalho realizado nas análises clínicas pode ser dividido em duas fases: a pré-analítica e a analítica, ambas fundamentais para garantir a qualidade e a confiabilidade dos resultados. Esta obra tem como foco a fase pré-analítica dos exames laboratoriais, apresentando, entre outros temas, os conceitos, técnicas e procedimentos envolvidos na coleta e preparo de amostras biológicas; os equipamentos e materiais utilizados; os cuidados e precauções necessários; e as possíveis fontes de erro e interferência. Didático e prático, este conteúdo foi desenvolvido pelo Senac São Paulo com o intuito de contribuir para a capacitação de estudantes e profissionais da área para atuarem com competência, segurança e qualidade no laboratório.

Brazil, in particular, offers an immense amount of biodiversity, including plants with great pharmacological interest and medicinal importance. The Amazon Basin, in northern Brazil has a highly diverse biota and still harbours a variety of unknown and unstudied plant species for medicinal values. Contributions are from internationally recognized professionals, specialists of the Medicinal and Aromatic Plant domain and have been invited mostly from the members of the International Society for Horticultural Science and International Council for Medicinal and Aromatic Plants.
