Full Description
This book explores our knowledge of biotechnology and its application to improving the quality of medicinal plants. With its unique and sustained focus on medicinal plant biotechnology, it offers an essential guide and a systematic reference for the development of medicinal products with the help of biotechnology from natural sources. With contributions from world-renowned experts in the fields of biotechnology, pharmaceutical biology, pharmacognosy, chemistry, and pharmaceutical biotechnology, Plant Biotechnology was written while keeping in mind the requirements of botanists, the pharmaceutical industry, biotechnologists, microbiologists, and specialists working on plant biotechnology. It can serve as either a textbook or a reference work for students, teachers, or scientists working in the fields of medicinal plant biotechnology, and its readership also includes natural product chemists, biotechnologists, pharmacognosists, pharmacologists, as well as academic and industry researchers.
Features:
Provides essential evidence for all specialists overseeing supportive biotechnology on its utility.
Discusses the fundamental techniques in biotechnology and relates them to implementation with medicinal plants.
