The journal focuses on the study of natural products and resources, particularly their chemical composition, biological activities, and potential applications. Research includes the analysis of medicinal plants for marker compounds, essential oil yield and composition, and the isolation of bioactive compounds with therapeutic properties. The scope also encompasses the evaluation of plant extracts for antimicrobial, antioxidant, and neurobehavioral effects, as well as the valorization of agro-waste for industrial applications.
