Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue will provide up-to-date information on natural products and their possible applicative fields related to their biological activities. In recent years, there has been an increasing amount of interest in natural products, which are important sources of novel drug research and development. Contributions to this Special Issue may cover all advances related to natural product discovery, including the possible use of essential oils and extracts in new fields.
This Special Issue, “Natural Products: Isolation, Analysis and Biological Activity,” aims to publish original scientific articles on obtaining, identifying, and applying natural products in healthcare, agriculture, and foods.
