Mangroves with Therapeutic Potential for Human Health: Global Distribution, Ethnopharmacology, Phytochemistry, and Biopharmaceutical Applications explores, for the first time in a book, the exciting potential of mangroves for therapeutic applications in medicine and pharmacology. This authoritative, illustrated and clearly written book pairs the fascinating biodiversity of mangroves with their promising pharmacological propensities. Providing a comprehensive and authoritative overview, the book explores the important aspects related to mangroves, including global distribution, medicinal values and pharmaceutical applications in one source.

This book is a valuable resource for researchers, academics in the field of herbal medicine, pharmacology, pharmacognosy, medicinal chemistry, biochemistry, natural product chemistry, ethnopharmacology, biotechnology, marine biology, microbiology, as well as professionals in the pharmaceutical industries.

Dr. Nabeelah Bibi Sadeer received her PhD in medicinal and pharmaceutical chemistry at the University of Mauritius (Mauritius), MSc degree in forensic science at Staffordshire University (UK), and BSc degree in chemistry at the University of Mauritius (Mauritius). Her PhD research was focused on the phytochemical analysis and pharmacological properties of mangrove plants and their associated fungal endophytes. Nabeelah has authored and coauthored more than 45 publications in high impact factor journals and in prestigious books with several other articles and book chapters under preparation or review. Nabeelah published her first authored book entitled “Mangroves with Therapeutic Potential for Human Health” with Elsevier in 2022.
