Natural Product Analysis


 

Introduction
The development center focuses on quality control technologies for natural products and medicinal materials, including tissue identification (obtaining TAF certification) combined with ITS gene sequencing to confirm the origin of raw materials, development of chemical analysis methods, and establishment of specifications to ensure the accuracy and consistency of raw materials.

Furthermore, it has established chemical analysis methods such as UV (ultraviolet spectroscopy), IR (infrared spectroscopy), HPLC (analytical and preparative high-performance liquid chromatography), TLC (thin-layer chromatography), LC-MS/MS (liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry), and LC-SPE-NMR (high-performance liquid chromatography-solid phase extraction-nuclear magnetic resonance tandem analysis), along with five major specifications (drying weight loss/ash content/acid-insoluble ash/water extraction/dilute alcohol extraction) to establish quality control for active fractions.
