Objectives of the Course
Examples of active and auxiliary substances in the structure of plants are the use of plants among the public, the introduction of chemical compounds of herbal origin for different purposes, pharmaceutical active substances (alternative medicine), flavor and fragrance, plants used in cosmetics, agriculture, livestock, herbal teas, aromatherapy, poisonous plants and narcotic plants. It is aimed to introduce by giving and to determine the necessary isolation and spectroscopic methods. In addition, it is aimed to explain the production of these herbal compounds in natural and synthetic ways under laboratory conditions by giving examples.
