Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
After the success of the first volume of "Bioactivities of Nature Products", we are launching the second edition of this Plants Special Issue. We are enthusiastic about continuing to explore the fascinating world of plants, specifically on topics related to the chemistry of plant secondary metabolites and their biological activities, as well as innovative methodologies for separating them. Current delivery approaches through nano- or micrometric systems will also be considered. Therefore, this second edition invites authors to contribute original research manuscripts, reviews, or short notes in which they have demonstrated the chemistry and bioactivities of natural products using in vitro or in vivo models.
