MDPI - Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute, 208 pp. DOI: 10.3390/books978-3-03936-618-7978-3-03936-618-7 (PDF)http://hdl.handle.net/10400.3/5811(This book is a printed edition of the Special Issue Biological Activity and Applications of Natural Compounds that was published in Applied Sciences).Nature represents an amazing source of inspiration since it produces a great diversity of natural compounds selected by evolution, which exhibit multiple biological activities and applications. A large and very active research field is dedicated to identifying biosynthesized compounds, to improve/develop new methodologies to produce/reuse natural compounds and to assess their potential for pharmaceutical, cosmetic and food industries, among others, and also to understand their mechanism of action.engNatural CompoundsTherapeutic Applicationsbook10.3390/books978-3-03936-618-7
