Plants are the primary source of food, shelter and medicines. The global inclination toward herbal medicine has advanced the expansion of plant-based pharmaceutical industries to a vast extent. The production of traditional medicine at global market has been estimated to touch US $5 trillion by 2050. Some of the useful plant-based drugs include vinblastine, vincristine, taxol, podophyllotoxin, camptothecin, digoxigenin, morphine, codeine, aspirin, atropine, capscicine, allicin, curcumin, artemesinin and ephedrine. Genus Sapindus is an important economical and medicinal trees, distributed over the world. Soap nuts contain higher amount of saponin, a natural detergent which can be used to clean clothes and hairs. Sapindus species possesses various pharmacological properties including antimicrobial, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anticancer, hepatoprotective, anti-trichomonas activity. Extracts of this plant are rich in various phytochemicals and polyphenolic compounds. All the pharmacological properties are due to presence of saponins. Biotechnological techniques can improve the saponin content; thus this chemical content can be produced at large scale and can be used as phytomedicine. We hope that this book would be of great use to under graduates, postgraduates, scientists, researchers and faculty members who are studying, teaching or working in the field of Biotechnology, Phytochemistry and Ethnopharmacology. The techniques explained in this book could be of immense use for the researchers working in this area. We shall deeply appreciate receiving any critical comments and suggestions from the readers from the different parts of globe which would help us improve the first edition of this publication. 606 $aPlant breeding 606 $aBotanical chemistry 606 $aBiology?Technique 606 $aPlant anatomy 606 $aPlants$xDevelopment 606 $aTrees 606 $aPlant Breeding/Biotechnology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L24060 606 $aPlant Biochemistry$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L14021 606 $aBiological Techniques$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L28000 606 $aPlant Anatomy/Development$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L24019 606 $aTree Biology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L22024 606 $aBiotecnologia vegetal$2thub 608 $aLlibres electrònics$2thub 615 0$aPlant breeding. 615 0$aBotanical chemistry. 615 0$aBiology?Technique. 615 0$aPlant anatomy. 615 0$aPlants$xDevelopment. 615 0$aTrees. 615 14$aPlant Breeding/Biotechnology. 615 24$aPlant Biochemistry. 615 24$aBiological Techniques. 615 24$aPlant Anatomy/Development. 615 24$aTree Biology. 615 7$aBiotecnologia vegetal 676 $a631.52 676 $a660.6 700 $aSingh$b Reetika$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0971583 702 $aSharma$b Bechan$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910373917103321 996 $aBiotechnological Advances, Phytochemical Analysis and Ethnomedical Implications of Sapindus species$92208931 997 $aUNINA
