Traditionally, natural antioxidants from herbs and foods have played very important roles in medicine and health protection. In recent years, great progress has been achieved in studies on the effects and mechanisms of natural antioxidants, as well as on the relationship between antioxidants and human health. But the molecular mechanisms of natural antioxidants have yet to be deeply investigated. The academic discussions at this symposium, held in Beijing, China, in June 1995, have provided further insight into the effects and mechanisms of antioxidants; these may contribute to human health and the improvement of the lifestyle of mankind.

This book provides state-of-the-art discussion of natural antioxidants from dietary sources, their occurrence, health effects, chemistry, and methodologies. The book summarizes data on the occurrence of antioxidative compounds in cereals and legumes, oilseeds, herbs and spices, vegetables, teas, muscle foods, and other commodities. The antioxidant vitamins and enzymes also are thoroughly discussed. The potential beneficial effects of dietary antioxidants, the chemistry of food antioxidants, and methodologies to assess lipid oxidation and antioxidant activity also have been covered.

This is an open access book.Molecular biology has given a great impact in life science investigation. The advances in molecular biology over the last several decades have boosted research and product development in many disciplines of life science, including Biotechnology and Pharmacy. This advances comprise: (1) the progression of more sophisticated techniques in molecular biology with a broad, interdisciplinary applications; (2) the expanding flow of information of technical novelties and scientific discoveries across scientific community; and (3) the development of more sophisticated software and continuously updated databases. This has changed the rationale and approach of experimentations giving rise to revolutionizing discoveries in many fields od science. It has become evident that the deregulation of molecular processes in body is associated with, and in certain circumstances is the direct cause of, a wide range of pathological conditions. It is necessary to mention the biomedical relevance of molecular biology-related investigations for drug discovery and the development of a more personalized medicine. Given the rapidly changing and continuously evolving nature of the molecular biology field, we can anticipate that the revolutionary impact of molecular biology in life sciences is only at the beginning and is far from being finished. To highlight the rapidly growing research and product development in the field of Biotechnology and Pharmacy, the 4th International Conference on Natural Resources and Life Sciences (NRLS)” themed Biotechnology- and pharmacy-driven research and product development is presented. Following the successful program of 1st, 2nd, and 3rd NRLS, we intend to hold the next two-day conference along with a one-day optional workshop in 4th NRLS, as a scientific forum for biotechnology and pharmacy researchers and product developers to discuss the recent advances in the fields and their application. It is a great pleasure to invite you to the forthcoming 4th NRLS Conference, which will be held virtually, on August 24th-25th 2022, and the following onsite workshop on August 26th, 2022.

Light-emitting reactions occur in some living organisms, and are also now extensively exploited by industry and various branches of biomedical science. Luminescence from the natural world, particularly from marine organisms, is increasingly being harnessed by genetic and chemical manipulation to enhance the quality of human life. This volume contains cutting-edge contributions from most of the world's leading researchers in this field. It presents an up-to-date compilation of the range of biomedical, strategic and ecological applications of chemiluminescence and bioluminescence. It documents and highlights the rapid advance in knowledge concerning both the mechanisms and the uses of luminescence, and covers all the important developments of recent years.

Antioxidant use in health promotion and disease prevention either through dietary intake or supplementation is controversial. This book reviews the latest evidence-based research in the area, principally through prospective cohort studies and randomized controlled trials. It assesses major dietary antioxidants and discusses their use in diseases such as cancer, diabetes, stroke, coronary heart disease, HIV/AIDS, and neurodegenerative and immune diseases. The use of antioxidants in health is also discussed along with common adverse effects associated with antioxidant use.

This is an open access book.Related to the big theme of the SDGs reinforcement at our previous conference, we try to invite all academics and researchers around the world to participate in the 4th Borobudur International Symposium 2022 (4thBIS 2022). As we know, the COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on all the 17 SDGs have demonstrated how what began as a health catastrophe swiftly transformed into a human, socioeconomic and environmental crisis. The 4th BIS brought up “The Innovation Chain: A Contribution to Society and Industry” as the main theme to respond this condition. This conference is expected to support the UN Agenda. Additionally, this conference will also provide avenues for participants to exchange ideas and network with each other as well as domain experts from their fields. Overall, this event is aimed at professionals across all spheres of technology and engineering including the experienced, inexperienced, and students as well. The conference will be held virtually on Wednesday, December 21st, 2022 in Magelang, Central Java, Indonesia.

Plant foods are rich in micronutrients, but they also contain an immense variety of biologically-active, non-nutritive compounds that contribute to colour, flavour and other characteristics. This book assesses the health benefits of phytochemicals, as well as the functional benefits of particular groups of phytochemicals such as phytoestogens, carotenoids and flavonoids. It covers key safety and quality issues in developing phytochemical products, instituting appropriate intake levels, testing for safety and establishing health claims through clinical trials. This book will establish itself as a standard reference on one of the most important sectors in the functional foods market.
