OverviewThis new volume provides comprehensive coverage of the family Rutaceae, emphasizing its diverse phytochemistry and medicinal uses. The volume provides an introduction to the family Rutaceae and then goes on to delineate its phytochemical and pharmacological properties and uses. Also addressed are the nutritional, clinical, and toxicological profiles of the family Rutaceae, elaborating on the nutritional value of Rutaceae plants, their healthcare and clinical applications, and their possible toxic side effects. This volume provides an information overview of the Rutaceae family, which comprises numerous ornamental as well as economically significant fruit-bearing trees with significant phytochemistry and medicinal uses that are important for new drug discovery for pharmaceutical industries. The chapters may also direct researchers to isolate/extract pure compounds from Family Rutaceae for new and novel drug discoveries.

Table of ContentsReviewsAuthor InformationAbdur Rauf, PhD, is Assistant Professor, Department of Chemistry, University of Swabi, Anbar, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan. His research work focuses on phytochemistry and pharmacology, dealing particularly with bio-guided isolation of new compounds for drug discovery. His research interests include isolation and structure elucidation of bioactive compounds using several innovative techniques followed by in vitro and in vivo biological screening. Dr. Rauf is the author and coauthor of more than 280 research papers published in peer-reviewed journals, with 5392 citations as reported by Google Scholar. He has also written 10 book chapters in international books and holds two national and two international patents for discovery of novel antidiabetic drugs. Furthermore, e is an associate editor/editorial board member of Frontier in Pharmacology, Biocell, Green Processing and Synthesis, and Medicinal Chemistry, among others. He is also a fellow of the American Chemical Society and of the Laboratory of Biological Control and Antimicrobial Resistance of Orel State University, Russia. He has supervised two PhD and four MPhil students. Dr. Rauf has won a Young Scientist Award from the Directorate of Science and Technology, KP, Pakistan (2018), and the Research Productivity Award (2016-17) from the Pakistan Science Foundation. He has also won eight national and four international projects. The major goals of Dr. Rauf’s research include the discovery of eco-friendly and cost-effective protocols for the production of nanoparticles-based new drugs with bio-medicinal interest. He completed his PhD at the Institute of Chemical Sciences, University of Peshawar, Pakistan, in 2015. Hafiz Ansar Rasul Suleria, PhD, is in the School of Agriculture and Food, Faculty of Veterinary and Agricultural Sciences, The University of Melbourne, Parkville, Victoria, Australia. He was formerly the Alfred Deakin Research Fellow at Deakin University, Victoria, Australia. He did his postdoctoral fellowship at the Department of Food, Nutrition, Dietetic and Health at Kansas State University, USA. He is also an Honorary Fellow of the Diamantina Institute, Faculty of Medicine, The University of Queensland (UQ), Australia. Dr. Suleria has been awarded an International Postgraduate Research Scholarship and the Australian Postgraduate Award for his PhD research at the UQ School of Medicine and the Translational Research Institute in collaboration with the Commonwealth and Scientific and Industrial Research Organization, Australia.
