Abstract

Due to its deepened natural material research the transdisciplinary biodiversity research offers new options to therapeutical challanges of the 21st century. Besides phytochemicals, known for centuries, these natural materials also include recently known material such as antiviral active high polymer polyphenols of Mediterranean rockroses or new kinds of antiadipos active bitter-tasting compounds. Natural ressources are invaluable. To protect and preserve these, detailed knowledge of biodiversity on Earth and its embedding in the biogeosystem is required.
