Monoterpenes and Their Derivatives—Recent Development in Biological and Medical Applications

This research examines how natural compounds called monoterpenes, found in essential oils and plants, can be modified to create more effective medicines. The study shows that these modified natural compounds can be used to develop new treatments for various conditions including infections, inflammation, and cancer. The impact on everyday life includes: • Development of new, potentially safer medicines derived from natural sources • Creation of more effective treatments for common infections and diseases • Advancement in natural-based alternatives to synthetic drugs • Potential reduction in drug side effects through use of nature-derived compounds • More sustainable and cost-effective drug development using readily available natural resources
