Karsten: Identification and Quantification / Rituparna Kundu Chaudhuri and Dipankar Chakraborti N2 - "Plant-Based Functional Foods and Phytochemicals: From Traditional Knowledge to Present Innovation covers the importance of the therapeutic health benefits of phytochemicals derived from plants. It discusses the isolation of potential bioactive molecules from plant sources along with their value to human health. It focuses on physical characteristics, uniqueness, uses, distribution, traditional and nutritional importance, bioactivities, and future trends of different plant-based foods and food products. Functional foods, beyond providing basic nutrition, may offer a potentially positive effect on health and cures for various disease conditions, such as metabolic disorders (including diabetes), cancer, and chronic inflammatory reactions. The volume looks at these natural products and their bioactive compounds that are increasingly utilized in preventive and therapeutic medications and in the production of pharmaceutical supplements and as food additives to increase functionality. It also describes the concept of extraction of bioactive molecules from plant sources, both conventional and modern extraction techniques, available sources, biochemistry, structural composition, and potential biological activities. Advanced extraction techniques, such as enzyme-assisted, microwave-assisted, ultrasound-assisted, pressurized liquid extraction, and supercritical extraction techniques, are described in this book. With contributions from many experienced researchers, this volume sheds new light on the potential of plant-based natural products for human health. Key features: Discusses the phytochemical and functional health benefits from plant-based foods, presents methods of isolation and extracion of potential bioactive molecules from plant sources, looks at the preservation of indigenous knowledge on functional foods, identifies novel plants and their bioactive compounds for treatment of different diseases, elucidates on the mechanisms of actions of the plants."-- UR - https://www.taylorfrancis.com/books/9781003055419 UR - http://www.oclc.org/content/dam/oclc/forms/terms/vbrl-201703.pdf ER -
