Qualitative and Quantitative Analysis of Bioactive Natural Products
This special issue belongs to the section “Natural Products Chemistry“.
Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Natural products are a rich source of novel biologically/pharmacologically active compounds. Due to their high structural diversity and complexity, they represent interesting structural scaffolds that can offer promising candidates for the study of biologically active sources of new drugs, functional foods, and food additives. In recent years, great effort has been devoted to the qualitative and quantitative analysis of plant extracts and bioactive metabolites.
This Topical Collection welcomes original research and reviews of literature on all aspects of the analysis of plant extracts and bioactive compounds.
