ABSTRACT:
Drugs of natural origin play a significant role in the public health care system of any nation. Quality control is a challenging task for natural remedies. Natural products are different from traditional medicines and should be assessed for the quality. Chromatographic fingerprint produces a chromatogram that represents the chemical characteristics of herbal medicines. This strategy can serve as the proper monitoring of the quality and safety of medicinal herbs. Chromatographic fingerprint enables the characterization of complex herbal product with multi-constituents on a systematic manner with a quantitative degree of reliability. Fingerprint of herbal products through chromatographic techniques has been widely acceptable for evaluation of quality.
KEYWORDS: Chromatographic fingerprint, Chromatography, Standardization, traditional medicines, herbals.
INTRODUCTION:
“Nothing supports the life better than nature”
Nature is defined as the space outside the spectacle; People are living in an age where much attention is being built on the usefulness of natural resources. Herbal products and healthy foods supplements are necessary. Herbal medicine doctors; homoeopathic physicians, as well as many healthcare professionals, are continuing to gain attention. Each person appears to be curious, "What should we use to aid the body cure itself in a much more healthy way?”
Drugs of natural origin play a significant role in the public health care system of any nation. Indian Materia Medica includes about 2000 drugs of natural origin of which approximately 400 of animal sources including minerals whereas the others are the sources of vegetable. As in modern world, consumers are fully aware about the synthetic drugs, efficacy and side-effects. There is a
growing interest in natural medications in a simple natural way. In general, the Indian people have a great extent of awareness over the ancient application of various natural remedies. This is in addition to the structured Indian approach of medicine, ayurvedic medicine. All this has attracted worldwide interest. In the past few years tampering / substitution has been performed in the production of certain formulations. This terminology adulteration/substitution itself means that the ' activity of creating a fallacious quality material by replacing the original herbal plant/part with an exact size and form, even though it provides a poor or low quantity of product content, which results in the customer getting cheated.
Every composition in olden history had its specific evaluation method. Ayurveda's result showed it has its specific evaluation method regarding Banslochan as an example (practiced for the preparation of Sitopaladi churan). Through hands, Banslochan cannot be broken quickly and transformed into transparent material by washing with water. But the large proportion of the methods weren’t completely practiced in the modern development of such an ancient classical test technique.
Many herbal manufacturers already created its modern method, merging in the old techniques for the fusion analysis of their products, hence how spurious natural resources of low therapeutic value was combined in certain preparations. Therefore, the various regulatory authorities with WHO came into action to overcome the issue involved in natural products, because then buyers cannot be fooled by adulterated materials. For controlling substitution, several measures have taken by the WHO. Several specific techniques for quality control and standardisation have implemented and acquired by the WHO for herbal drugs. Around the same period, the WHO has instructed the member countries to provide advice and support on quality assurance of herbal products and also proposed a few modern methods, tools and specifications of herbal preparations towards standardisation and production. Guidelines recommended fingerprinting methods for the identification of plants and their constituents.
Quality control is a tedious and challenging task for the natural remedies. Natural products are different from traditional medicines and hence, for this good cause, assessing the quality of natural products, several novel approaches are emerging.
Chromatographic Fingerprint
There are certain methods which shown there usefulness in the past. But now one has to develop newer methods and parameters to reinstate our own TIM (s) (traditional Indian medicines) by chromatographic fingerprinting. Chromatographic fingerprint analysis is a rational and practical analytical strategy to assess. The authenticity quality and stability of (TIM) as well as other herbal medicines considered.3
The information gathered from the fingerprint is more comprehensive than that provided from the typical approaches. Chromatographic fingerprints sometimes exhibit variation in peak height and retention time of a given sample running through identical columns under the same separation condition, for the complex or multi-herbal formulation, multiple chromatographic fingerprinting which consist of more than one chromatographic and represent the whole characteristics of chemical constitutions of the complex medicine is proposed as a potential strategy.
Chromatographic fingerprint produces a chromatogram that represents the chemical characteristics of herbal medicines. Chromatographic fingerprint has potential to determine the identity, authenticity and lot-to-lot consistency of herbal formulation. It is inadequate to represent all chemical patterns of characteristics when the compositions of herbal Medicines are too complex.4-9
Patho-physiology of traditional system of medicines
Ayurveda and Siddha the oldest Indian Systems of Medicines in which the human body was understood using the Tri-Dosha (Humors) concept. i.e., Pitta, Kapha and Vata. Hence by knowing the therapeutic efficacy of a medicine about what dosha it is going to cure, an excellent therapy was possible. In most of the Indian Materia Medica books and the literature of various traditional medical philosophies world over, a clear mention was made about the therapeutic efficacy of the herbal medicines using the study of their physico-chemical properties. A detailed mention was provided in the ancient literature about herbal medicines on what doshas they are going to act and how to use them.. In almost all the traditional system of medicines the basic concepts include the nature and its role on the humors of the human beings. Using the properties like Tri Doshas, Panchabhutas, Saptadhatus, and physico chemical properties like shape, texture, taste and color etc., the medicines were selected for specific efficacy.
According to the above philosophies, pharmaco-dynamic and genetic principles vary from person to person and situation to situation according to doshic predominance. In other words there is a relation between the dravya gunas (medicinal properties) and doshas (Properties, disorders). Addition or deletion of one or more drugs may be necessitated to treat identical disease in patients, with different individual doshas or combination of doshas. Hence Ayurvedic pharmaco-therapy is more individualistic according to dosha predominance of the patient. Identification of properties (Rasa (Taste), Guna (Property), Veerya (Potency), Vipaka (Post assimilative effect) and Prabhava (Any Special property) compatible to doshas is unique and more reliable. Thus knowing the chemistry of the medicines with specific taste will help to know the efficacy of the respective medicine. The diseases produce when the Tridoshas Viz., Vata, Kapha and Pitta individually or in combination with one another disturbed in the body.
Standardization
A system to ensure that every packet of medicine that is being sold has the correct substances in the correct amount and will induce its therapeutic effect this is known as standardization. For advancing the standardization and safety aspects of herbal products there are two main reasons for the consideration.9
First, the usage of natural herb, including, nutritional supplements, food and beverage product, current remedies and phytomedicines.
Secondary, herbal products are an essential resource for novel medicine development. The quality is the average of the different results that have a direct impact on the material. Standardization and quality evaluation of natural ingredients according to regulatory standards would be unavoidable to overcome these challenges. Optimization of natural resources is a dynamic challenge owing to its heterogeneous nature present in the form of individual plant parts. To make sure the validated efficiency of natural medicine, careful control of the precursor material is necessary.2, 10, 11
Standardization of products
For Standardization, no comprehensive description is there. Quality of a final product of each batch is guaranteed by the standardized product. The concept of standardization used by the NHPD is considered in this article. Standardization needed under particular conditions for the determination of unique compounds (as well recognized as markers) which can be utilized to produce a high-quality product. The standardization approach also allows measuring of the product quality. 12
Standardization of Extracts
Standardization of Extracts describes a material with a defined minimum level or a large number of one or even multiple components of biochemical or marker chemicals, thus retaining the maximum characteristics of a product comprising non - human animal material or plant material, fungi, bacteria, algae. It was accomplished via recognizing and assessing one or multiple genetic markers of any identified biological activities (active compound or medicinal) or unidentified biological activities. Biomarkers are categorized as:
1. Active constituent: A recognized and effective biochemical therapeutically active product. This particular biochemical component could be modified through standardization to a quality level that is demonstrable-either present naturally in an herb or more in a concentrated extract.
2. Marker compound: When a biochemical active product not identified. The recognized marker component, which is a natural health product with defining characteristic, though, it does not lead to pharmacological activity and is modified to fulfill the experimental goal. The marker component can be used to monitor the quality of the final product of each batch. It sets out a standardization method to ensure that manufacture product of each batch provides a similar quantity of the marker material.2
Non- Standardization of Extracts
The extract of non-standardized is produce by immersing the herb, herb parts, bacterium, algae, fungus and material of non - human animal in a solution which separates particular constituents. The solution can be taken as it is or evaporated to obtain a dry extract of non-standardized.2
Standardization criteria for raw drugs / medicinal herbs (as per WHO) 13, 14
Evaluation of Herbal Drugs15, 16, 17
Herbal process control
Drugs are manufactured from different raw materials by using different methods or process. Some impurities are incorporated into the material during the manufacturing process. Multiple-step procedure, which produces intermediate compounds. In- process control provides information on general characters, identification test and other applicable tests such as inorganic and heavy metal impurity, microbial limit, and pesticide reside besides, safety, assay and stability. In addition to the foregoing portions of the initial final and in process samples are used for collecting average run samples for the quality control laboratory to perform final batch analysis and release. The followings are the flow chart of process control of herbal drugs.
Advancement in standardization
Most of the modern methods like TLC, HPTLC and HPLC Gas chromatography and Hyphenated procedures HPLC-DAD, CE-DAD, GC-MS, LC-MS, HPLC-MS, HPLC-DAD-MS and LC-DAD-MS. HPLC-UV (DAD)-FTIR-NMR-MS used for the quality control of herbal medicines are based on the modern methods of chemical analysis and could not explain the chemical and therapeutic properties of the medicines in terms of traditional parameters like Taste, Color and Doshas. When a medicine is standardized the protocol for the preparation and quality control and administration should be the same. Moreover, the recent methodologies with the application of hyphenated chromatography and spectroscopy, such as gas chromatography-mass spectroscopy (GC-MS), capillary electrophoresis-diode array detection (CE-DAD), high-performance liquid chromatography diode array detection (HPLC-DAD), , HPLC-NMR and HPLC-MS, also give significant spectral details that would be extremely effective for structural elucidation and qualitative analysis. With the help of the spectral information the hyphenated instruments show greatly improved performances in terms of the elimination of instrumental interferences, retention time shift correction, selectivity, chromatographic separation abilities, and measurement precision. If hyphenated chromatography is further combined with chemometric approaches, clear pictures might be developed for chromatographic fingerprints obtained. A chemical fingerprint obtained by hyphenated chromatography, out of question, will become the primary tool for quality control of herbal medicines.18, 19
Market Potential of herbal medicine
Certain Indian plants have shown their high therapeutic value global market that’s why they are the plant of choice in different formulations.

CONCLUSION
Traditional Indian Medicine (TIM) includes several botanicals, each containing several compounds that are important to the potential action of the medicinal product. Thus, analytical methods that aim at a collection of compounds, along with their respective ratio values, help in providing a further strategic way to the identification and assessment of the quality of TIM. This paper provides many references for the use of chromatographic fingerprint methodology to assess the durability, identity, and stability of TIM, along with the detection of impurities as specified. The problem of quality assurance of herbal medicines has been solved to a great extent with the help of chromatographic fingerprint analysis. The variation determination of common peaks/regions in a set of chromatographic fingerprints could provide useful qualitative and quantitative information on the characteristic components of herbal medicines investigated. On the other hand, whether the real samples were identified as the herbs with the same quality grade could be determined successfully by way of comparing the chromatographic fingerprints with the similarity index and linear correlation analysis. Henceforth, recognition can be used to discriminate different kinds of samples of herbal medicines investigated. Thus chromatographic fingerprint analysis serves as a promising quality control tool for herbal medicines.
