The chemistry, biology & pharmacological properties of these metabolites has been exploited as a promising & high-value alternative source in enormous commercial applications (viz. food, feed, bio-fuel, paper, particle-board, toiletries and personal-care products etc. Besides, due to its inherent potential, tobacco also has an incredible history to utilize as an efficient 'bio-factory' for the production of numerous foreign bio-actives having implications in agricultural, cosmetics, fragrance, pharmaceuticals, nutraceuticals and cosmeceuticals.
