These include primary metabolites found in all plants, such as sugars and fats, as well as secondary metabolites, which can have therapeutic effects in humans and be refined to produce drugs. Plants synthesize a bewildering variety of phytochemicals, but most are derivatives of a few biochemical motifs. Numerous herbal-derived substances have been evaluated for their therapeutic potential. These include alkaloids, coumarins, saponins, plant pigments and flavonoids. Flavonoids, carotenoids and anthocyanins are probably the best known of these substances due to their antioxidant properties. Carotenoids: Structure and Function in the Human Body presents comprehensive coverage of carotenoids. The text covers the scientific literature and clinical significance of this organic pigment, with an emphasis on its therapeutic potential. The authors approach carotenoids from a range of perspectives, from their structural and physicochemical properties to their distribution in nature, interaction with the human metabolism, and use as a coloring agent in various products. The intake, metabolism and secretion of anthocyanins in the human body are covered in-depth, as are the biosynthetic pathways through which these compounds are synthesized in the natural system. Factors affecting stability and extraction are listed, and health-related uses and biological activities are covered in great detail. Present and future trends in carotenoid research are also presented. This book provides a solid background in carotenoids for researchers and professionals in food science, food technology, nutrition, biology, chemistry and medical sciences. 001434653 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed April 1, 2021). 001434653 650_0 $$aCarotenoids. 001434653 650_0 $$aFood$$xBiotechnology. 001434653 650_0 $$aChemistry, Organic. 001434653 650_0 $$aNutrition. 001434653 650_6 $$aCaroténoïdes. 001434653 650_6 $$aAliments$$xBiotechnologie. 001434653 650_6 $$aChimie organique. 001434653 650_6 $$aNutrition. 001434653 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001434653 7001_ $$aZia-Ul-Haq, Muhammad,$$cPh.D.,$$eeditor. 001434653 7001_ $$aDewanjee, Saikat,$$eeditor. 001434653 7001_ $$aRiaz, Muhammad$$c(Professor of pharmacy),$$eeditor. 001434653 77608 $$iPrint version:$$z9783030464585 001434653 77608 $$iPrint version:$$z9783030464608 001434653 77608 $$iPrint version:$$z9783030464615 001434653 852__ $$bebk 001434653 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-030-46459-2$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001434653 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1434653$$pGLOBAL_SET 001434653 980__ $$aBIB 001434653 980__ $$aEBOOK 001434653 982__ $$aEbook 001434653 983__ $$aOnline 001434653 994__ $$a92$$bISE
