Quality Control and Evaluation of Herbal Drugs: Approaches for Evaluating Natural Products and Traditional Medicine brings together current thinking and practice in the quality control and standardization of herbal drugs. As the use of herbal medicine in therapeutics is rising in both developed and developing countries, this book facilitates the development of quality standards for these medicines. Written by Pulok K.

Particular attention is paid to methods that assess activity, the compounds responsible, and their underlying mechanisms of action. . The book describes the quality control parameters followed in India and other countries, including Japan, China, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka and other Asian countries, as well as the regulatory profiles of the European Union and North America. Users will find it to be a comprehensive resource on bio-prospecting for traditional-medicine-inspired drug discovery and development.
