UNOFFICIAL DRUG

Preparation of drugs for commercial market

1 Cultivation 2 Collection

Ensures quality and purity of medicinal plants. Due to the controlled environmental growth better plant product is obtained and makes the collection and processing steps easier when compared to wild sources

Cultivation

Most advantageous of this time is when the part of the plant that constitutes the drug is highest in its content of active principles and when the material will dry to give the maximum quality and appearance

Collection

Hand labor (digitalis) / with the use of mechanical devices

Harvesting

Removes sufficient moisture to ensure good keeping qualities and to prevent molding, action of enzymes/bacteria, and chemical or other possible changes

Drying

2 types of Drying

1 Natural drying 2 Artificial drying

(sun-drying)-either direct sun-drying or in the shed. Drying in shed is preferred if the natural colour of the drug (digitalis, clove, senna) and the volatile principles of the drug (peppermint) are to be retained.

Natural drying - digitalis, clove, senna, peppermint

Includes drying the drugs in (a) an oven; i.e. tray-dryers; (b)vacuum dryers and (c) spray dryers.

Artificial drying

It is the final step in the preparation of a crude drug; consists of the removal of extraneous matter(other plant parts, dirt , adulterants)

Garbling

Should provide ample protection and economy of space- must maintain a high degree of quality of the drug

Packaging, storage and preservation

Obtained from the direct parts of the plants and containing cellular tissues

Organized drugs - (rhizomes, barks, leaves, fruits, entire plants, hairs and fibers)

Prepared from plants by some intermediate physical processes such as incision, drying or extraction with a solvent and not containing any cellular plant tissues

Unorganized drugs - (aloe juice, opium latex, agar, gambir, gelatin, tragacanth, benzoin, honey, beeswax, lemon grass oil, etc.)
