Description

Explore the scientific depth of the Taxus genus with this authoritative volume from CRC Press. This book provides a comprehensive look at the taxoids, starting with the history of Taxol, which was derived from the North American Yew tree in 1971. Known globally as a powerful anticancer agent, Taxol works through unique microtubule stabilizing activity and has been a key therapeutic agent in treating breast and ovarian cancers at the National Cancer Institute. This industrial profile covers the full lifecycle of taxoid production and biosynthesis. Readers will find detailed information ranging from commercial cultivation techniques to plant tissue culture methods. The text also examines taxoid chemistry and the specific analytical methods used for identification. It is an essential resource for those studying medicinal and aromatic plants, offering a technical account of one of the most significant plant-derived therapeutic agents in modern medicine.
