Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue will mainly focus on new research and findings around bioactive compounds from marine plants. The topics of interest are from both the industrial and academic field, including nutrition, pharmacy, chemistry, etc. Original new discoveries, such as the identification of new structure bioactive compounds, discovery of new activities and revealing mechanisms, explanation of metabolism and effect targets, clarification of the relationship between structures and functions, and invention of efficient separation methods, are most welcome.
Prof. Dr. Ping Dong
Guest Editor
