Procedure for Examination of Drug Materials

In this article we will discuss about the procedure for examination of drug materials. A. For Examination of Powder Drugs: The colour, taste solubility and odour of the powder was examined at first. Then a small quantity was mounted in water or glycerine on a clean slide for microscopic examination. Sometimes, lactophenol can be used as mounted for clearing of [...]

Microscopic Examination of Some Drug Materials

In this article we will discuss about the microscopic examination of some drug materials. 1. Swertia Chirayita (Family: Gentianaceae): Fragments of epidermal cells with cruciferous type of stomata, acicular crystals of calcium oxalate present in the cortical cells and in the mesophyll cells; some cortical cells contain resins, vessels having bordered pits on the walls. Morphology: Stem: About 6 mm [...]
