Abstract:
The mission of the research group Natural Products & Food Research and Analysis – Pharmaceutical Techology (NatuRAPT) is to make a contribution to human health by increasing our knowledge on medicinal plants and food plants, including the chemical profiling of their constituents and metabolites, the development of methods to assure their quality, optimalisation of their formulation to guarantee and improve bioavailability, and evaluation of their health effects. The research group is active in the field of medicinal plants, natural products and functional food science.

The marine component includes the study of secondary metabolites (triterpene glycosides) from sea cucumbers, which can serve as chemotaxonomical markers.
