Context: Medicinal herbs have gained worldwide popularity as natural raw materials, not only for herbal formulations and nutraceuticals but also in pharmaceutical cosmeceutical products, while food culinary products are available the general population, having great benefits. However, heavy metal contamination medicinal is a dreadful health issue current scenario due to ever-increasing levels of environmental pollution malagriculture practices. Aims: To investigate existence some impurities,...
DNA-based molecular markers have great importance among other methods used for the authentication, detection, and identification of medicinal herbal species. Currently, it is more common to identify species (monoherbal or polyherbal forms) morphologically by using sensory, macroscopic, microscopic methods. made an easy accurate detection polymerase chain reaction (PCR) which involves in vitro amplification a particular region DNA sequence. In current study, we heterogenic parts isolation...
Abstract Survival of living being in the universe depends upon nature created ecosystem for foods, nutrition’s and medicines from past several decades. Most consumable natural gifts are plant herbs as foods both human animals. The affect heavy metal contamination plants cannot be underestimated they used major foodstuff. In current study, we have quantitatively determined five different metals including lead, mercury, cadmium, nickel copper 13 selective herbal species which commonly...
This study was done to apply the technique of atomic absorption spectrophotometery in field pharmacy ensure quality and purity herbal plant material. In this regard samples Justicia adhatoda were collected, dried, weighted, digested analyzed using Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer for their mineral contents (Copper, Chromium, Zinc, Cobalt, Iron) as well toxic heavy metal (Lead Cadmium) contamination. A comparative two different sample preparation techniques i.e. dry ashing wet digestion...
