Unelaborated Products

Natural products have a long history of use as folk medicines in several systems of traditional medicine. Extensive evidence from modern pharmacological studies has confirmed traditional applications, and unveiled the vast potential of naturally occurring compounds, particularly plant-derived phytochemicals, in the management of chronic human diseases. The past decade has witnessed a surge of findings from randomized controlled trials testifying the safety and efficacy of natural products as adjuncts or alternatives to standard-of-care medications for several illnesses. Biomolecular studies have unveiled hundreds of cellular and molecular targets for phytochemicals including key transcription factors, receptors, enzymes, hormones, neurotransmitters, cytokines, lipids, and non-coding RNAs.

This book provides a comprehensive overview of recent developments to valorize fish waste as a source of useful products. In the first few chapters, an introductory section unearths global fish waste production, its detrimental effects and its role in the circular economy. The next section of the book discusses recent applications of fish waste and by-products utilization for the production of useful products such as fertilizers, biogas, biodiesel, fish sauce, enzymes and many more. This book will serve as an important source of recent research developments and applications of fish waste generated at different stages of fish processing. This book will also act as an important reference to the research group conducting research on fish and fish by-product utilization and valorization.
