Index

section lists the individuals and experts from different fields who contributed to the chapters of the book. Their expertise spans various areas of natural products, from drug discovery to environmental applications.

Chapter 1: The Origin and the Nature of Natural Products  

Written by Raphael Ikan, this chapter explores the fundamental principles of natural products, including their origin, chemical diversity, and significance in both historical and modern contexts. It delves into how natural compounds have been used for centuries in traditional medicine and how they continue to inspire new drug discoveries.

Chapter 2: Plant-Derived Natural Products in Drug Discovery and Development: An Overview  

In this chapter, Mark Bahar, Ye Deng, Joshua N. Fletcher, and A. Douglas Kinghorn provide an overview of how natural products derived from plants serve as a basis for drug discovery and development. The authors highlight the importance of plants as sources of bioactive compounds and the challenges and opportunities in this field.

Chapter 3: Plant and Brain Cannabinoids: The Chemistry of Major New Players in Physiology  

Lumir Hanuš and Raphael Mechoulam discuss cannabinoids derived from both plants and the brain, focusing on their chemical properties and their physiological role. This chapter highlights the significance of cannabinoids in medical research, particularly in understanding the endocannabinoid system.

Chapter 4: Natural Products as Biomarker Tracers in Environmental and Geological Processes  

Bernd R.T. Simoneit explains the use of natural products as biomarkers in environmental and geological research. This chapter demonstrates how natural compounds can trace ecological changes and contribute to our understanding of geological processes.

Chapter 5: Toxins of Marine Invertebrates and Microorganisms  

Yoel Kashman and Yehuda Benayahu explore the toxins produced by marine invertebrates and microorganisms. This chapter emphasizes the potential applications of these toxins in medicine and biotechnology, focusing on their unique chemical properties and effects.

Chapter 6: Enantiomeric Distribution of Odorous Oxygenated Monoterpenes in Aromatic Plants  

Uzi Ravid delves into the enantiomeric distribution of odorous oxygenated monoterpenes in aromatic plants. This chapter addresses the role these compounds play in plant aromas and their potential applications in industries like perfumes and flavors.

Chapter 7: Recent Trends of Some Natural Sweet Substances from Plants  

Bernard Crammer reviews the recent trends in the discovery and use of natural sweet substances from plants. The chapter discusses how these substances are being explored as alternatives to synthetic sweeteners and their benefits in food and health industries.

Chapter 8: Natural Products for Pest Management  

Stephen O. Duke, Agnes M. Rimando, Kevin K. Schrader, Charles Cantrell, Kumudini M. Meepagala, David E. Wedge, Nurhayat Tabanca, and Franck E. Dayan focus on the use of natural products in pest management. They discuss the development of natural pesticides and their role in sustainable agriculture.

Chapter 9: Natural Products in Mycelial Microorganisms: Impact of Morphology  

Sergei Braun examines the relationship between the morphology of mycelial microorganisms and their production of natural products. This chapter covers how the growth and structure of fungi influence their ability to produce bioactive compounds.

Chapter 10: Recent Advances in the Chemistry of Insect Pheromones  

Mangesh J. Goundalkar and Francis X. Webster present recent advances in the chemistry of insect pheromones. The chapter discusses how understanding pheromones can lead to new methods of pest control and improve agricultural practices.
