About this ebook

This book offers an in-depth exploration of fifteen well-researched plant-derived bioactives, addressing the critical challenges that impede their clinical translation—such as poor aqueous solubility, limited bioavailability, rapid metabolic degradation, and insufficient target-specific delivery. Emphasizing advanced drug delivery systems based on micro- and nanotechnologies, this volume presents state-of-the-art research and practical strategies to improve pharmacokinetics, enhance therapeutic efficacy, reduce side effects, and boost patient compliance. Featuring contributions from leading experts across premier institutions, the book serves as a valuable resource for pharmaceutical scientists, formulation specialists, medicinal chemists, phytochemists, pharmacologists, and healthcare researchers committed to advancing phytochemical-based therapeutics through innovative delivery approaches—while also laying the foundation for future volumes in this evolving field.
