Короткий опис (реферат):
Medicinal plants have been a good source of new
pharmacologically active molecules. Natural products could be a potential alternative
for controlling the pathogen associated with diseases. Recently, antibiotics and most
drugs on the market have shown unwanted symptoms and the emergence of resistant
pathogenic microorganisms, toxic effects related to these drugs, and withdrawal
issues restricting their use in many countries, therefore, much attention has been paid
to the herbal extracts and pharmacologically active molecules extracted from
different plant species that are used previously in the traditional medicine. Many
plant species have been reported to exert pharmacological properties due to their
phytoconstituents such as glycosides, alkaloids, saponins, steroids, flavonoids,
tannins, and terpenoids (e.g., monoterpenes, diterpenes, and sesquiterpenes).
Nowadays, eighty percent of the world’s populations depend on traditional medicines
as an essential source of their primary health care. Medicinal plant extracts and their
constituents also possess various biological activities including virucidal,
bactericidal, fungicidal, anti-inflammatory, analgesic, sedative, spasmolytic, and local
anesthetic activities among others.
Aim of the study: search for promising medicinal raw materials for extracting
biologically active substances (BAS).
