Science and Engineering of Marine Phenolics: Characterization, Extraction and Applications

Science and Engineering of Marine Phenolics: Characterization, Extraction and Applications is a comprehensive resource examining these secondary metabolites. Phenolic compounds are secondary metabolites with increasing scientific, commercial and general population interest for their wide distribution, variety and potential applications. Less studied than terrestrial sources, marine organisms contain highly interesting phenolic compounds due to their exclusive structures. In addition, the distinctive features of the marine solid matrix, requires novel process technology approaches. The high productivity of marine biomass makes it a renewable source of valuable components with potential for commercial applications. Section on chemical characterization of highly variable structures from marine phenolics provides the chemical composition and structure of these important marine compounds Bioavailability and bioactivities of marine phenolics help facilitate the design of new products Includes contributions from a global team of experts addressing the challenges of working with marine phenolic compounds INDICE: Part I.
