Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

Long description:
Phytochemicals for Health presents the state of the art in the field of Phytochemicals. It highlights how, following the interactions of plants and the environment, an analytical approach for standardization and quality control is of fundamental importance to product quality control.
Parts I and II cover the main problems relatied to natural products (plants, extraction, quantitative analysis, relationship with the surrounding environment). Part III presents the main classes of organic compounds identified and reported, and Part IV includes inorganic compounds. It also includes a chapter covering all the natural compounds that have become Active Principle Ingredients (API), highlighting next challenges.
Phytochemicals for Health is a valuable tool for senior scientists working in natural products field interested in investigating the correlation between chemical profile and biological activity in order to obtain a product that is safe for human health.
- Covers extraction, purification and isolation methods of the active compounds in plants
- Highlights characterization and analysis of main organic and inorganic components
- Analyses the effect of the environment on the natural product
- Discusses standardization and quality control fundamental for the development of new products with beneficial activity on human health
