RESUMEN
This paper reviewed the historical background of the GAP, analyzed the development experience of five Ps (GMP, GLP, GSP, GCP, GAP), analyzed the GAP based on economic theories, and pointed out that the core problem of GAP is ignoring economic laws. Once the GAP, is a process of certification, but neither the GAP announcement could be transformed into signal transmission quality in the product market, nor consumers could recognize the difference between GAP and non-GAP herbs in the terminal market, so manufacturers lack motivation for GAP certification. In this paper, we pointed out, that the GAP certification system should be redesigned under the guidance of economics, third party certification body, supervised by drug administration organization, to certificate GAP as high quality standards, to improve signal transduction mechanism of GAP certification, and to integrate GAP with the market.
RESUMEN
In order to ensure the superior quality and safety of the raw materials of Reduning Injection-Lonicerae Japonicae Flos, a standard operating procedure was established on the base of Good Agriculture Practice (GAP) of Chinese herbal medicine as well as practice investigation and experiments. This standard operating procedure provides the technical requirements for the production suitability, growing, field management, diseases and pests controlling, harvesting and processing, packing and storing, transporting, and quality monitoring of Lonicerae Japonicae Flos. The experiences and problems in the process of the standardized planting were analyzed and discussed.
RESUMEN
Objective In order to standardize plantation and get bumper crops cultivation technique of Abrus cantoniensis Hance (a general term: "Herba Abri"). Methods To cultivate A. cantonients guiding by the instructive rules of productive quality and standard of management of Chinese medicinal materials, productive A. cantoniensis under good agriculture practice (GAP) promulgated by State Administration of Food and Drug. Results Comparing to production under non-GAP, the content of extract and flavones was higher, while the content of pesticide residue and heavy metal was lower under GAP. Conclusion Plantation of A. cantoniensis under GAP through choosing soil strictly, selecting seeds, optimizing pollution-free environment and friendly fertilizer and agriculture chemical, the harmful heavy metal and residues of pesticides amount in crude medicinal materials could be controled effectively so that the quality and output of A. cantoniensis could be improved.
