Metabolites from Marine Microorganisms, Micro, and Macroalgae: Immense Scope for Pharmacology
Marine organisms produce a large array of natural products with relevance in drug discovery. These compounds have biological activities such as antioxidant, antibacterial, antitumor, antivirus, anticoagulant, anti-inflammatory, antihypertensive, antidiabetic, and so forth. Consequently, several of t...
