The whole spectrum of these compounds’ biological and medical functions, from antibiotic to antiviral and anti-carcinogenic properties, is presented. In addition, a new chapter discusses the anti-neurodegenerative and anti-diabetic activities of lichenic secondary metabolites. Given its scope, the book offers a valuable asset for students and researchers in this field.MicrobiologyPharmacologyMycologyEukaryotic Microbiologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L23020Applied Microbiologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/C12010Pharmacology/Toxicologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/B21007Mycologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L27000Microbiology.Pharmacology.Mycology.Eukaryotic Microbiology.Applied Microbiology.Pharmacology/Toxicology.Mycology.612.39612.39Ranković Branislavedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtBOOK9910349452003321Lichen Secondary Metabolites1994008UNINA
