Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The one health approach is a collaborative effort of multiple science professions to enhance people's health, domestic farm and food animals, plants, and our environment. Previous works have demonstrated that different bioactive compounds could be linked to maintaining optimal human health and improving animal, plant, and environmental health systems services. Among these, flavonoids are important in different matrices, such as food, plants, and microorganisms. In food and plants, these compounds can be induced by abiotic and biotic stresses as a defense mechanism. Also, different metabolic engineering tools have been developed to produce these compounds from microorganisms. Flavonoids and derivatives show multiple biological effects, such as antioxidant, antimutagenic, and anti-inflammatory, among other activities, as well as being related to improved animal performance and quality by using them as feed additives.
This Special Issue aims to provide a broad overview of flavonoids and derivatives as potential effects that contribute to the one health approach. Original research articles or reviews that discuss the potential of flavonoids and derivatives against optimal human and animal health, innovative methodologies for flavonoids and derivatives extraction from different sources, as well as other related articles, are welcome.
