Chemistry of Natural Products
The Chemistry of Natural Products is the branch of organic chemistry responsible for the isolation and characterization of natural substances produced by secondary metabolismof plants, microorganisms and marine animals. The studies in this area are considered strategic because it involves knowledge of biodiversity in a broad sense, and providerenewable substances of importance in various areas of science and technology. Within this context, the research line of Natural Products Chemistry, Post Graduate in Chemistryresearch involves chemical, pharmacological and biological medicinal plants, and microorganisms associated with marine animals in the search for new molecules withpotential medical use, biochemistry, biological and agrochemical.
