Medicinal herbs have reached extensive acceptability as therapeutic agents for several diseases. However, the use of medicinal herbs is limited due to the issue on quality and safety assurance, as well as lack of scientific proof. Standardization is an important aspect for maintaining and assessing the quality and safety of medicinal herb.

The challenge of natural chemists is to identify as much as possible the bioactive compounds and to study their mode of action to treat the diseases.
