Standardization of drug means “confirmation of its identity and determination of its quality and purity and detection of nature of adulterant by various parameters like morphological, microscopically, physical, chemical and biological. As we all know in our Ayurvedic system of medicines drug standardisation of Ayurvedic formulation is a big challenge. Clear cut guidelines have not been developed so far. So it is necessary to educate ISM manufacturing industry people for drug standardization work.
