of morphological forms depending on the nature of their sources.

morphological and sensory characters, like shape, texture,
external markings, fracture, colour, odour and taste, are of

morphological features of identification other than some sensory
characteristics like colour, odour and taste.Before sending the

drugs for the commercial market involves collection, drying,
garbling, quality control, packaging, storage and preservation.
- At present due
to advancement in the chemical knowledge of crude drugs various
methods like botanical, chemical, spectroscopic and biological
methods are used for estimating active constituents present in
the crude drugs in addition to its physical constants
- Herbal material
such as gums, fixed oils, essential oils, resins extracts, etc.
are also extracted from plants and used separately. These
materials are processed by various local procedures, such as
steaming, roasting, or stir baking with honey/ alcoholic
beverages/ other materials

estimated, that in developed countries such as the US, plant
drugs constitute as much as 25% of the total drugs, while in
fast developing countries such as India and China, the
contribution is as much as 80%
- About 80% of
the world population is dependent on medicinal plants for health
care and 20% of the pharma drugs are of plant origin, either
extracted from the plants or synthetic derivatives of these
plant species
