Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Natural products have been shown to have many benefits throughout the centuries. The preventive and/or therapeutic effects of natural products can be explained by modern techniques. The advances in medicine and the development of analytical methods have enabled the output of high-quality, evidence-based scientific research in the field of health sciences.
The discovery of antibiotics has had a high impact on life expectancy and life quality, but now, only one century later, mankind faces the worrying phenomenon of bacterial resistance.
Inflammation is a physiological response of the organism identified in numerous pathological conditions that triggers cascade reactions and negatively influences the organism’s quality of life.
Natural products can be a valuable source of bioactive compounds that possess anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties and can be used for the prevention and control of different pathologies. Modern analysis techniques can be employed by various specialists, such as pharmacists, physicians, chemists, and biologists, to identify compounds with a favorable efficacy/cost ratio.
