Traditional Chinese medicine refers to the collection, formulation, and preparation of medications under the direction of the theory of Chinese traditional medicine, which clarifies the mode of action and directs clinical use. The majority of them come from natural medicines and their processed byproducts, such as botanicals, animal medicines, mineral medicines, as well as certain chemical and biological products.
Our company provides professional testing services for not only Chinese herbal medicines, but also raw materials, semi-finished products and finished products of Chinese medicines.
Service Overview
As more and more consumers look for complementary forms of Western treatment to use alongside Western therapy, traditional Chinese medicine and proprietary Chinese medicines are now growing in popularity. The significance of drug safety has increased consumer awareness at the same time. Generally speaking, proprietary Chinese medicine products are subject to safety, quality and efficacy requirements. Public health risks could result from unintentional intake by the general public of PCM products that are polluted with pesticides, contain excessive quantities of heavy metals and poisonous components, or are adulterated with substances from western pharmaceuticals (side effects such as cognitive decline, panic attacks, mental confusion, cramps, and increased blood pressure).
Our company offers stability and safety testing as well as validation of analytical techniques for both proprietary and herbal Chinese medications. Asparagus microscopic identification, ash testing, and moisture content are just a few of the things our lab tests for in the category of approved Chinese herbal medicine testing. We have also expanded the range of heavy metal testing to include testing for copper content in both proprietary Chinese medicines and herbal medicines.
