MEDICINE PLANTS IN BAII Tradition and Scientific Analysis Based on Biotechnology, a Biochemistry, and Pharmacology

We published this book as part of one of our research outputs that were compiled together in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic, which is still very worrying and not sure when it will end. Books on medicinal plants in Bali, Tradition and Scientific Analysis Based on Biotechnology, Biochemistry, and Pharmacology are compiled based on the results of our research and several studies from other libraries. This book presents the results of research on several choices of medicinal plants in Bali, especially medicinal plants that grow wild and the identity of the species is not clearly known, but they provide promising benefits because they contain very potential active compounds. The plants we chose were Bulung Sangu (Glacialria sp.), Pumajiwa or pranjiwa (Euchresta hornsfieldii or Kop s ia arb or ea) Bulung Bon i (C aul erp asp.), Kecarum (Ocimum spp.) other. This book also provides various information on phytochemicals and secondary metabolites of plants, their biosynthetic processes, and the latest techniques based on biochemistry, molecular biology, and biotechnology in the development of medicinal plant researches. We also described information on potential compounds such as the carotenoid astaxanthin that we identified from Bulung sangu and Bulung Boni, which was complemented by a complete biosynthetic study at the level of the genes involved, which were presented based on the results of a literature review. This book is also equipped with research results that have been achieved which have been published in the Scopus and Sinta indexed journals.
