Marine Biotechnology for Healthcare: Advances and Biomedical Applications, 1st Edition presents recent research examining how ocean biological systems contribute to modern clinical and healthcare practices. This book connects marine biological resources directly with medical developments, illustrating how ocean-derived biological materials support health-related scientific fields.

The text outlines how marine organisms supply functional biological materials across a four-section structural framework. Initial sections investigate microbial bioprospecting methods, carbon capture mechanisms using microalgae, and active chemical compounds isolated from seaweeds. The thematic progression then focuses on marine-derived nutraceuticals, functional foods, and bioactive compounds evaluated as therapeutic agents across clinical environments.

Edited by Maushmi S. Kumar, Achlesh Daverey, Sanket Joshi, Harpal S. Buttar, and Annika Vaksmaa, this volume provides organized technical context on ocean resource utilization. The material supports academic specialists and scientific professionals evaluating aquatic biological materials for ongoing medical research projects.
