For many years, standardization of herbal medicines could not progress much for the want of availability of phytoconstituents/marker compounds. At THS, we have carefully analyzed this problem and we are now offering more than 100 phytoconstituents available with us with complete analytical profile in ready stock, which can be conveniently used as marker compounds for ascertaining the quality of raw material or finished products. These phytoconstituents are useful for standardization of herbal raw material, extracts and formulations made from those herbs. This list would be constantly upgraded to include more phytoconstituents to cater the growing need of herbal drug standardization.

A herbarium is a collection of preserved plant specimens. Most herbaria consist of mainly dried, pressed specimens. If stored properly, such pressed specimens can be preserved for hundreds of years.The medicinal plant herbarium comprises a unique ethnobotanical collection focusing on medicinal plants with a use in traditional or contemporary medicine. Medicinal plants from many parts of the world are represented in the collection. The medicinal plant herbarium is used in both teaching and research. An important function of the herbarium is to house voucher specimens of authentic medicinal plant material. We provide such herbarium sheets of requested herbs to add to your collection.

Herb authentication is a quality assurance process that ensures the correct plant species and plant parts are used as raw materials for herbal medicines. The proper authentication of herbal raw materials is critically important to the safety and efficacy of herbal medicines. We carry out Identification and authentication of botanicals, medicinal plants and raw herbs according to Indian, British,European Pharmacopoeia by taxonomy, morphology, macroscopic, microscopic, histochemical, chemical and chromatographic techniques.
