Sommario/riassunto |
|
Polyphenols are the second most abundant class of substances in nature, and include tannins and flavonoids, many of which have extremely important antioxidant properties which have now been shown to have a key role in the prevention of cancer in humans. This important book covers polyphenol chemistry, biosynthesis and genetic manipulation, ecology and plant physiology, food and nutritional aspects and the effects of polyphenols on health. Included within the contents are cutting edge chapters on biotic and abiotic stress in plants, safety and toxicity in foods, functionality and nutraceutica |

Sommario/riassunto |
|
This book presents a multidisciplinary exploration of sustainable development, integrating themes such as environmental management, social sciences, and AI-driven technology. It covers innovative approaches to sustainability in agriculture, biodiversity, energy, and urban planning, while addressing social equity, human rights, and the role of education. The book also highlights the impact of AI and technology on public health, resource management, and smart cities, alongside discussions on governance, policy, and ethical dimensions of sustainability. With contributions on economic growth, public health, and environmental justice, it serves as a comprehensive guide for advancing global sustainability initiatives. . |
