Introduction of Natural Products | Chapter 1 | Natural Products Chemistry: From Discovery to Applications, Edition 1

For centuries, plant extracts, microbial crude metabolites, and products from marine organisms have served as a valuable and resourceful life asset. It is readily apparent that they serve as an exceptional reservoir for bioactive molecules, which are particularly relevant to the development and synthesis of drugs. The classification and prevalent applications of natural products have been the subject of this introduction, with a particular emphasis on their significance in the fields of pharmacy, cosmetics, and agriculture. It also discusses the environmental impact of the extraction and utilization of these compounds, as well as their potential implementations in the future in the fields of health and industry.

Application of Natural Polymers as Excipients in Dosage Forms | Chapter 8 | Novel Aspects on Pharmaceutical Research Vol. 8

The review focuses on the polymers of unrefined origin and their win importance. Natural polymers, which maybe found in two together woody and non-woodlike plant components such as bark, sources, sap, roots, rhizomes, products, leaves, and plant gums, are typically polymeric polysaccharides. Natural polymers are widely utilised, have less adverse effects, are referring to practices or policies that do not negatively affect the environment, increase bioavailability, are inexpensive, are effortlessly available, and maybe used in a variety of portion of drug or other consumable forms. The paper focuses on an overview of everyday polymers, their characteristics, synthetic components, and applications as excipients in portion of drug or other consumable forms. Natural polymers have also significance in controlled and sustained release studies. The non injurious nature of these everyday products is favorable and classified and mentioned.
