Contemporary methods for the extraction and isolation of natural products

Milena Popova et al. BMC Chem. .

Abstract

Extraction is a vital step in obtaining pure bioactive natural compounds for medical, scientific and commercial use. Recently, interest in extracting natural products for applications across the food, pharmaceutical, and cosmetic industries has grown rapidly, driving demand for newer, more efficient extraction methods. To develop our understanding of this field, BMC Chemistry has launched a new article Collection titled "Contemporary methods for the extraction and isolation of natural products".
