Abstract :

Plants have been used as medicine since prehistoric times. The increasing use of herbs and concerns about their safety and effectiveness have led to the need for the formulation of these herbs. The World Health Organization has developed guidelines for these drugs, which are used as models by many countries. Standardization includes external (naked/microscopic) as well as internal/ash analysis, extraction results and many other measures to identify, describe and study the chemical composition of the muscles.
Medicinal plants are important for drug production. Medicinal plants and herbs constitute a large part of the pharmaceutical market. Although most of the practices are not scientific, knowledge about the use of herbs in modern medicine is increasing and widely accepted. Herbal medicine is not an easy task because many factors affect its biological and therapeutic effects. Therefore, there is a need to improve the safety of herbal medicines by establishing some quality control measures and following the World Health Organization guidelines on herbal medicines. Methods of quality assurance and standardization of herbs and medicinal products using various spectroscopic, chromatographic and electrophoretic methods are also discussed.
