Pharmacognosy: Fundamentals, Applications and Strategies explores a basic understanding of the anatomy and physiology of plants and animals, their constituents and metabolites. This book also provides an in-depth look at natural sources from which medicines are derived, their pharmacological and chemical properties, safety aspects, and how they interact with humans.
The book is vital for future research planning, helping readers understand the makeup, function, and metabolites of plants in a way where the history of their usage can be linked to current drug development research, including in vitro, in vivo, and clinical research data.
By focusing on basic principles, current research, and global trends, this book provides a critical resource for students and researchers in the areas of pharmacognosy, pharmacy, botany, medicine, biotechnology, biochemistry, and chemistry.
Covers the differences between animal and plant cells to facilitate an easier transition to how the body interacts with these entities
Contains practice questions at the end of every chapter to test learning and retention
Provides a single source that covers fundamental topics and future strategies, with the goal of enabling further research that will contribute to the overall health and well-being of mankind
Описание: 'Trease and Evans' is an encyclopedic reference work on pharmacognosy - the study of those natural substances, principally plants that find a use in medicine. Its popularity and longevity stem from the book's balance between classical (crude and powdered drugs' characterization and examination) and modern (phytochemistry and pharmacology) aspects of this branch of science, as well as the editor's recognition in recent years of the growing importance of complementary medicines, including herbal, homeopathic and aromatherapy.
Описание: Pharmacognosy: Current Herbal Medications and Natural Product Chemistry for a PharmD Curriculum focuses on the regulation and practicum of herbal medications in the real world. By introducing natural products as lead compounds for drug design, discovery, and development, the text bridges the gap between traditional herbal medications and current Western medicines.
The book covers the unique and rich history of pharmacognosy in pharmacy practice and the critical role it has and continues to play in the evolution of modern Western medicine. Part I contains readings that provide students with an overview of the history of pharmacognosy, as well as the contemporary use of herbal medicine around the globe. In Part II, students learn about dietary supplements, botanical ingredients, herbal bioavailability, pharmacokinetics, and the mechanisms of herb-drug interactions. Part III covers natural products that can be used for pain management, anxiety and insomnia treatment, immune modulation, treating inflammation, infectious diseases, cancer, and more. The final part features case studies to demonstrate the practical applications of pharmacognosy.
Featuring contemporary research and information that satisfies Accreditation Council for Pharmacy Education (ACPE) Standards, Pharmacognosy is ideal for courses and programs in pharmacy and medicinal chemistry.
