Secondary Metabolites in Stress and Disease Management: A Natural Alternative details the sources and diversity of microbial and plant secondary metabolites, the methods used for their detection and extraction, their novel applications in disease management, and inclusion in mainstream therapy. Organized into three main sections, the book begins by discussing the potential of microbes, plants, microalgae, and cyanobacteria as valuable sources of secondary metabolites, their role and mechanisms of action in symbiotic and competitive interactions, extractions and purification strategies, and the means to maximize their production. The book goes on to explore the utility of secondary metabolites in mitigating plant stress and their therapeutic impact on human health management. With contributions from experts in the field, Secondary Metabolites in Stress and Disease Management is a useful interdisciplinary resource for researchers, professors, graduate and postgraduate students, and industry professionals studying applied microbiology, biotechnology, biochemistry, pharmacology, and plant science.Provides a detailed overview of diverse secondary metabolites and their sourcesIllustrates classical and modern approaches for the detection and purification of secondary metabolitesDescribes the biological mechanisms of utilization for products counteracting stress and disease in humans and plants

River Pollution: Causes, Consequences and Remediation delves into the critical issue of river pollution, offering a comprehensive analysis of various pollutants and their sources. Sections explore the natural and anthropogenic origins of river pollutants, including harmful algal blooms, pesticides, pharmaceuticals, microplastics, atmospheric deposition, emerging contaminants, industrial waste, and heavy metals and then examine the profound impacts of these pollutants on microbial diversity, aquatic flora and fauna, fish health, river chemistry, salinization, and human health, as well as the socioeconomic repercussions.The final section focuses on the assessment of water quality and presents a range of remedial measures, from wastewater treatment and physical, chemical, and bioremediation methods to innovative techniques for pollution mitigation. This essential resource provides valuable insights for students and researchers of environmental science, policymakers, and organizations committed to preserving the health of our rivers and the ecosystems they support.Provides a comprehensive analysis of various river pollutants and their sourcesIncludes global case studies that shed light on sustainable practices for water qualityOffers remedial measures to assess water quality by using novel techniques

This contributed volume covers a comprehensive account of the sources, toxic biological as well as environmental impacts, and possible remediation strategies for contamination by heavy metals. In biological systems, toxic metals affect the integrity of cellular organelles and act as carcinogens causing chromosomal aberrations or as systemic toxicants leading to cardiovascular, neurobehavioral, and immunological disorders. In plants, they interfere with photosynthesis, fertility, metabolite, and chlorophyll synthesis. Toxicity induced by heavy metals involves mechanistic approaches that need to be understood properly. They cannot be degraded by biological or chemical means and thus can only be converted to less harmful forms. The conventional detection methods include biosensors, voltammetry, atomic absorption spectrometry, and inductively coupled plasma with atomic emission spectrometry. All such strategies for metal detection and mitigation strategies are covered in this title under one section.This book incorporates classical views along with modern scientific approaches to develop an understanding of the subject matter suitable for academicians, researchers, planners, policymakers, NGOs, and environmental consultancies and raise awareness on this concern. Topics representing diverse sections namely environmental impacts, biological effects, and methods used for detection and remediation have been included to address all possible contemporary issues on the topic in one concise volume.
