Medicinal et Aromatic Plantees
Recent Progress en Medicinal Plantees, Vol 29: Drug Plantees -III
Description
Mondewide investigations en specialized areas de biological activity have nevertheless confirmed that plants are a reservoir de chemical agents avec therapeutical potential. Since new diseases as well as drug-resistant strains de known pathogens continue to emerge, le search pour novel compounds from drug plants is ongoing process et there is a need to exchange this vital information pour wider application by le global scientific community. Le present volume is an endeavour en this direction et presents 23 chapters sur medicinal plants investigations authored by eminent scientists from Inde et abroad sur various aspects viz. medicinal properties et uses, chemical et pharmacological profiles, cellular et molecular mechanisms de le therapeutic actions, chemical composition et biological activity, chemopreventive et radioprotective effects, pharmacokinetics et pharmaco-dynamics, ethnopharmacology etc. pour many medicinal species studied viz., Hypericum perforatum, Pueraria lobata, Salvia miltiorrhiza, Tabernanthe iboga, Panax ginseng, Crataegus laevigata, Citrus aurantum, Crocus sativus, Allium hirtifolium, Alchornea glandulosa, Byrsonima fagifolia, Mouriri pusa, Zingiber officinale, Terminalia arjuna, Catharanthus roseus, Pongamia pinnata, Azadirachta indica, Artocarpus altilis, Morus alba, Melia azedarach, Chrysanthemum coronarium, Stellaria chamaejasme, Daphne tangutica, Xanthium sibiricum, Bidens pilosa, Xanthopappus subacaulis, Radix Scutellariae, Huperzia saururus, Pterocarpus angolensis, Clausena anisata, Ziziphus mucronata, Turraea nilotica, Vangueria infausta, Annona stenophylla, Ximenia caffra, Dicoma anomalia et Daucus carota. Le findings could serve as basic material pour further studies en le direction de developing new phyto-therapeutics. Le contributions are from far et wide including Argentina, Brazil, Canada, China, Cuba, Denmark, France, Inde, Iran, Poland, Serbia, Taiwan, United Kingdom, U.S.A. et Zimbabwe. Le volume aims to document updated information sur medicinal plants investigations to bring these to le attention de international scientific community, particularly le phytochemists, pharmacologists, microbiologists, biochemists, biotechnologists, medical scientists et other researchers engaged en le discovery et development de new drugs de natural origin.
