Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Considerable attention had been directed towards the application of bioactive compounds from foods to obtain health benefits. Here, we are looking for novel research about how to utilize these bioactive compounds to prevent or even treat various diseases, and invite you to share your groundbreaking research, mainly focusing on the molecular level. This Special Issue will cover the below topics:
- Characterization of bioactive compounds from foods by various analytical techniques;
- Mechanisms of bioactive compounds to treat diet-related diseases;
- Designing new functional ingredients or foods using bioactive compounds.
We believe that your research can make a significant difference in this research area to provide insights into how to utilize bioactive compounds from foods against disease.
Dr. Jongbin Lim
