The international trade in plants is growing steadily as the
worldwide demand for natural and botanical raw materials increases.
Customers value natural products and botanicals as "green"
alternatives-safer ingredients for their families which also
represent an environmentally and socially responsible choice for
the planet. In order to build assurance into the sourcing of
natural ingredients, R&D organizations must have valid
scientific matrices to authenticate the quality of those
ingredients, provide traceability, and minimize risk. An assemblage
of insight from expert contributors, Botanicals: Methods and
Techniques for Quality & Authenticity compiles a range of
methods and techniques that can be used to help guide quality and
authenticity determinations. Topics include: Metabolic profiling,
authentication of botanicals by morphology, and genetic methods of
botanical authentication Tools for building models for the
authentication of materials How multivariate statistics can play a
role in determining botanical quality and authenticity Radiocarbon
and stable isotope ratio analysis and emerging stable isotope tools
NMR (nuclear magnetic resonance) spectroscopy, NIR (near-infrared),
and HPTLC (high-performance thin-layer chromatography) methods for
analysis The use of electronic sensing instruments and applications
for analysis The contributors also discuss the challenge of
identifying a botanical extract or preparation on the basis of its
chemical content and discuss quality issues faced by botanicals
used as cosmetic ingredients. The book provides you with a range of
traditional, taxonomic, and newer analytical tools to assure the
quality, authenticity, and traceability of botanical raw materials
for dietary supplements, cosmetics, and natural products research.
