Foreword
Natural bio-active compounds play a crucial role in pharmaceutical industries in designing and developing high-value products that help overcome human and animal health problems. These bio-active compounds are isolated from a wide variety of plants, microbes, algae, and several others. Due to their high therapeutic potentials and nutritional values, they are extensively used in the preparation of pharmaceutical drugs and functional foods. In view of this, comprehensive studies on various natural bio-active compounds for their potential pharmacological actions, including the identification, isolation and extraction, quality control, studies on the biological activities and mechanisms of action and clinical applications are becoming an exciting f
