Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Plants are sources of bioactive natural compounds. Due to their anti-inflammatory, anticarcinogenic, antioxidant, and antibacterial properties, these substances are essential for maintaining human health. These properties can have a positive impact on a variety of disorders, including autoimmune, cardiovascular, cancer, inflammatory, and neurological conditions. This Special Issue's objective is to find the potential natural compounds that are beneficial to human health. This Special Issue includes a selection of research articles or reviews that highlight recent advances in the study of plant metabolites, including methods for their isolation, with an emphasis on green technology, separation techniques (chromatography), and identification (mass spectrometry, NMR), in addition to studying their antioxidant, antimicrobial, and antiproliferative activity.
