Ayurvedic Acharyas had a great knowledge of the medicinal plants because they used to live near the forests which are a good source of the natural resources. But now days due to urbanization, deforestation and industrialization certain medicinal plants have become extinct and became difficult to make use of them in therapeutics. Hence demand is naturally increased as there was restriction of entry into forests imposed to protect the endangering plants.
By increasing demand of such drugs which are considerably less in availability, by adulteration/substitution of the raw materials has taken its place creating havoc in the Ayurvedic pharmaceutical industry. Hence the need is to standardize these herbs through botanical surveys, Pharmacognostical studies, assessment of the quality material available in particular area of market etc.
In the present study of Anthocephalus cadamba MIQ (Kadamba), Adina Cordifolia BENTH & HOOK (Dhara Kadamba), Mytragyna parvifolia KORTH (Dhuli Kadamba), for standardization collected from different places.Published
