Andalas University, Indonesia
The increasing use of herbal medicines has raised concern with regards to the efficacy and safety of the products. Several examples
on the harmful effects of herbal preparations have been reported. Several other medical issues were such as the compatibility of
one herbal preparation with other drugs or herbal preparations, dosages, as well its true medical values, since very few comprehensive
clinical evaluations were done on these products. In order to help the public understanding on the true benefits or potential harmful
effects from the herbal products, suitable analyses method of the contents need to be established. Several methods have been in use
to standardize herbal products such as the use of High Performance Thin Layer Chromatography (HPTLC) and High Performance
Liquid Chromatography (HPLC). New paradigm and perhaps new technology are required in ensuring the safety and efficacy of these
herbal products. In this presentation the author wishes to discuss a simple, fast and precise quantitative TLC method which has been
developed for quantitative estimation of mangostin in young and ripe pericarp extract of Garcinia mangostana. Early study on the
approaches taken up by the Pharmaceutical Research Laboratory in developing towards this goal will be highlighted.
