The marine coasts of Pakistan, located along the Arabian Sea, are a rare treasure trove of biodiversity, home to countless valuable marine species. The biological organisms found in these coastal areas are rich in natural compounds, which, when scientifically explored, can lead to the development of new and effective medicines. This book represents a pioneering step in the scientific study, conservation, and medical as well as industrial utilization of Pakistan's coastal biological resources. It highlights the emerging field of Marine Pharmacology, which focuses on the discovery, structural an...
The marine coasts of Pakistan, located along the Arabian Sea, are a rare treasure trove of biodiversity, home to countless valuable marine species. The biological organisms found in these coastal areas are rich in natural compounds, which, when scientifically explored, can lead to the development of new and effective medicines. This book represents a pioneering step in the scientific study, conservation, and medical as well as industrial utilization of Pakistan's coastal biological resources. It highlights the emerging field of Marine Pharmacology, which focuses on the discovery, structural analysis, and pharmacological evaluation of bioactive compounds derived from marine life. The field holds promising potential for addressing major global health challenges such as cancer, neurological disorders, and chronic illnesses. The initiative began at Hamdard University Karachi's Hafiz Muhammad Ilyas Institute of Pharmacology and Herbal Sciences (HMIIP&HS), where researchers are employing modern techniques to collect, preserve, and analyze marine samples using advanced analytical platforms. This book is a key reference for marine biologists, pharmacologist, scientist and researchers.
