| The Charak Research and Development Center : |
The curative art of Ayurveda, India's gift to the world, has evolved from time immemorial through learnings and knowledge of ancient Sagas and Scholars.
We, at Charak, constantly endeavor to experiment and test various scientific inputs in Ayurveda thereby making it internationally recognized and sustainable across the globe.
Now it is a known fact that US Researches have advocate Evidence based medicine principles to be applied to Complementary and Alternative Medicine (CAM). World Health Organization (WHO) has also recognized Ayurveda as an alternative system of medicine.
We strongly believe in enhancement standards of AYURVEDIC MEDICINE from an alternative therapy to a mainline medical option and to represent the cause by providing standardized Ayurvedic formulations using state of art manufacturing technology. |

We have documented and prepared monographs for all the crude herbs contributing into our formulations as per WHO and other pharmacopoeial guidelines by detailing its macroscopy, microscopy and powder characteristics and also prepared permanent slides & herbarium for documentation & reference.
We have all the required facilities like research microscope (with high resolution power), microtome and expert faculty for morphological study and analysis of formulated as well as new herbs
All the 272 crude drugs are identified, authenticated and crude drug museum has been prepared so that at every manufacturing step one can verify claims of the crude drugs. |

The plant constituents that are responsible for medicinal and therapeutic properties of the drug are usually secondary metabolites. A systematic study of the crude drug embraces thorough consideration of primary and secondary metabolites. We have extensively screened these extracts on the following lines:
|
Qualitative and Quantitative Phytochemical Screening |
|
Physico –Chemical Analysis |
|
Chromatography |
For the class of secondary metabolites like Alkaloids, Glycosides, Tannins, Volatile oils, Fixed oils, Coumarins, Flavonoids etc. We do qualitative and quantitative screening of the extracts using following methods
|
Volumetric titration |
|
Gravimetric method |
|
Spectrophotometric method |
|
Chromatogarphic method |
|
|
|
 |
Our R&D follows standard protocols for microbial analysis including pathogens. We have different cultures for bacteria, fungi and pathogens. Following tests are routinely conducted in our laboratory:
|
Total microbial count |
|
Total fungal count |
|
Pathogen testing |
|
Effectiveness of preservatives for reduction of bioburden |
For quality control of herbal drug materials a different approach is needed than that of synthetic medicine. Since crude drugs, their powders, extracts and finished products are susceptible to moisture and thereby getting contaminated faster. A critical microbiological analysis is therefore essential and R&D adheres to WHO specifications in this regard. |
