Research on methods and theories of correlation in "quality, curative effect, and metabolism" for quality control of Chinese materia medica / 中草药

ABSTRACT

In current China, the quality evaluation for Chinese materia medica (CMM) is one strategic issue of enormous important questions that need to be addressed. According to the current situation and major problems on the quality control (QC) for CMM, we use chemical analysis method, pharmacological model experiment method, and the calculation method combined with the mathematical analysis model, and then propose the "correlation in 'quality, curative effect, and metabolism'" which is a new method for the QC and is based on a quality evaluation of efficacy as the core. We hope the establishment of the correlation in "quality, curative effect, and metabolism" could provide the significant references to the QC of CMM and ensure the safety and efficacy of CMM products.
