Description
Marine Biotechnology for Healthcare: Advances and Biomedical Applications offers a comprehensive exploration of recent research and advancements within marine biotechnology, with a particular focus on healthcare applications. The book identifies and elaborates on various marine compounds, delving into their sources and potential in the biomedical industry. Organized into four sections, it provides a structured approach to the subject matter. The first section provides an overview of marine biotechnology and identifies potential sources of marine compounds. The second and third sections discuss marine-based nutraceuticals, functional foods, and bioactive compounds as therapeutic agents. The fourth section explores the application of marine components in the biomedical industry, examining their use in biosensors, medical implants, diagnostic kits, and biomaterials preparation. This resource is invaluable for professionals engaged in marine biotechnology and the development of marine-derived compounds.
