Advancement of Indian herbs knowledge in drug development

India has a rich heritage of traditional medicine. The knowledge of medicinal herbs has been passed down through generations, offering natural remedies for various ailments. With the progress of modern science, the integration of traditional wisdom with contemporary drug development approaches has gained increasing attention. Natural herbs are widely available in huge quantities. Natural herbs alternatively, are more appealing for pharmaceutical applications owing to their biocompatibility, low cost, biodegradability, chemical modification and necessary surface qualities but there are some drawbacks like microbial degradation, low solubility, and stability issues etc... Grafting of synthetic polymer onto natural polymers can introduce desired properties by the use of different techniques of grafting method. The yield of grafting increases in microwave assisted grafting method as compared to conventional grafting. The objective of this abstract is to spotlight the recent advances and modifications of natural herb polymer modification and its applications in pharmaceutical industries.

Abstract

India has a rich heritage of traditional medicine. The knowledge of medicinal herbs has been passed down through generations, offering natural remedies for various ailments. With the progress of modern science, the integration of traditional wisdom with contemporary drug development approaches has gained increasing attention. Natural herbs are widely available in huge quantities. Natural herbs alternatively, are more appealing for pharmaceutical applications owing to their biocompatibility, low cost, biodegradability, chemical modification and necessary surface qualities but there are some drawbacks like microbial degradation, low solubility, and stability issues etc... Grafting of synthetic polymer onto natural polymers can introduce desired properties by the use of different techniques of grafting method. The yield of grafting increases in microwave assisted grafting method as compared to conventional grafting. The objective of this abstract is to spotlight the recent advances and modifications of natural herb polymer modification and its applications in pharmaceutical industries.
