It includes an atlas providing detailed text and graphic descri. It includes an atlas providing detailed text and graphic descriptions of more than medicinal plant species and their adulterants. Designed to meet the needs of the herbal products industry, regulatory agencies, and academic researchers, the book covers plant anatomy at a level appropriate for the pharmacognostic analysis of plant tissues, provides extensive coverage of the history and importance of botanical microscopy, and gives instruction on how to set up a microscopy lab and prepare, view, and archive whole and powdered plant parts for microscopic analysis.
The botanicals covered represent 90 percent of the dollar value of botanical sales in the United States. The focus is on those species that are in high use, and those that are commonly adulterated. It also covers a number of popular Asian botanicals, providing the first English language description for many of these. The ABC Clinical Guide to Herbs is a unique reference book and nationally accredited continuing education course for physicians, pharmacists, nurses, dietitians and other healthcare professionals, and will be of great interest to herbalists and consumers.
This book contains extensive information on 29 of the most popular herbs sold in the U. Each chapter contains a well-referenced, comprehensive therapeutic Monograph, a 2-page Clinical Overview for quick reference, and a 1-page Patient Information Sheet for the health professional to photocopy and give to patients. The African Herbal Pharmacopoeia AfrHP provides comprehensive, up to date botanical, commercial and phytochemical information on over fifty of the most important African medicinal plants.
The technical data were made on plant samples sourced from across the continent. These monographs prepared by leading African scientists, have been reviewed by international experts. Additional data includes micro morphology of the plant material, distribution maps and TLC Chromatograms. These data are crucial for producers, collectors and traders in medicinal plants and extracts as well as researchers, manufacturers and practitioners.
The scope, quality and standard of these herbal monographs are comparable to those prepared in Europe, North America and Asia. Whilst this is the very first edition, it is being proposed to proceed to a second edition, quickly, as more plant species will be covered. Access to accurate, evidence-based, and clinically relevant information is essential to anyone who uses or recommends herbal products.
The book covers more than species of herbs and provides a holistic understanding of safety through data compiled from clinical trials, pharmacological and toxicological studies, medical case reports, and historical texts. Thus, we embarked on this project as our way of helping to preserve and revitalize this scientific discipline.
