ISBN: 9781475700992 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 254 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The study of plant natural products can be considered to have started in 1806 when Serturner isolated the first of these compounds, morphine, from the opium poppy.

With increasing knowledge, various speculations were put forward on the ways that these compounds were synthesised from pri- mary metabolites and on their possible physiological, ecolo- gical and taxonomic importance. These investigations sublimated in the...

ISBN: 9781468433746 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 651 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych.

It is not surprising, therefore, that the first formally organised Society of Phytochemists, the Plant Phenolics group which was established in England in 1958, should have devoted themselves to an intensive study of these compounds. They were...
