Research Abstract |
Quality evaluation and control of herbal medicines are important but difficult issues. Licorice is the one of the most important herb in Japan, and regulated by glycyrrhizine content according to Pharmacopeia of Japan. However, biological activities of licorice extracts, such as suppression of nitric oxide generation in macrophase cell, could not be estimated by just only glycyrrhizine content of licorice. However, those could be estimated by metabolome data which possesses comprehensive component data accurately. We suggested that metabolome data in harbal extract is quite useful for quality evaluation of herbal medicines.
