Produktbeschreibung

Capsicum has been used since ancient times as a traditional medicine and a natural colorant. The medicinal properties of capsicum make it popular in both ayurvedic and homeopathic treatments. In Capsicum: The genus Capsicum, experts describe its ethnobotany, chemistry, pharmacology, toxicology, cultivation, tissue culture and commercial uses. The book details the therapeutic applications of capsaicin, the pungent, principle component of capsicum, and its action on different biological systems. Examples, such as the use of capsaicin in the recent discovery of a "hot receptor," or pain sensor, in the human heart, are used to support capsaicin's growing therapeutic and industrial importance.
