• Sommario/riassunto: The marine environment is rich in biological and chemical diversity and is the source of molecules that can be used to create a range of products. Marine organisms contain various unique bioactive substances, which can be transformed into active substances by bioconversion technology through membrane bioreactors. This book discusses recent advances in marine nutraceutical research and includes a wide range of applications in both traditional Chinese medicine practice as well as contemporary medicine. The book clarifies the historic misconceptions of marine-derived medicines and provides insigh
