This new volume discusses a selection of nanomaterials that can be employed for advanced biological, nutraceutical, and medicinal applications. It discusses diverse nanomaterials and their classifications, their advanced therapeutic properties, using biosensors in detecting biological threat agents, bionanomaterials for human health, the medicinal applications of nanomaterials, clinical toxicities of nanomaterials and their use in remediation.The book also includes a chapter that provides a helpful comparison of market analysis between biological and synthetic nanomaterials. The volume concludes with an insightful perspective on possible future applications of nanomaterials as nutraceutical, biological, and medicinal agents.

This new volume provides a bird's-eye view of the properties, utilization, and importance of high resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS) for phytochemical analysis. The book discusses the new and state-of-the-art technologies related to HRMS in phytochemical analysis for the food industry in a comprehensive manner.Phytochemical characterization of plants is important in the food and nutraceutical industries and is also necessary in the procedures followed for drug development, toxicology determination, forensic studies, origin verification, quality assurance, etc. Easy determination of active compounds and isolation as well as purification of the same from natural matrices are required, and the possibilities and advantages of HRMS pave the way for improved analysis patterns in phytochemistry. This book is unique in that its sole consideration is on the importance of HRMS in the field of phytochemical analysis.Along with an overview of basic instrumental information, the volume provides a detailed account of data processing and dereplication strategies. Technologies such as bioanalytical techniques and bioassays are considered also to provide support for the functions of the instruments used. In addition, a case study is presented to depict the complete phytochemical characterization of a matrix by HRMS. The book covers processing and computational techniques, dereplication, hyphenation, high-resolution bioassays, bioanalytical screening/purification techniques, applications of gas chromatography-high-resolution mass spectrometry, and more.Key features:Covers the fundamental instrumentation and techniquesDiscusses HRMS-based phytochemical research detailsFocuses strictly on the phytochemical considerationsHigh-Resolution Mass Spectroscopy for Phytochemical Analysis: State-of-the-Art Applications and Techniques will be a valuable reference guide and resource for researchers, faculty and students in related fields, as well as those in the phytochemical industries.

This book deals with various clinical trials of nutraceuticals and dietary supplements covering various diseases such as maternal and fetal diseases, cancer, hepatic, gastric, hormonal, bone and renal diseases inclusive of case studies, so that the reader get current updates on the potency of nutraceuticals as well as dietary supplements.
