Formulating an Herbal Drug
All herbal formulations at Kalinda find their roots in classical Ayurvedic texts. A team of botanists and Ayurveda experts at our R&D center review these scholarly texts and shortlist suitable herbs for further research. The availability and sustainability of these herbs are first ensured before research is initiated.
Kalinda's phytochemistry team studies the geographical and seasonal variations of marker profile of these herbs. Active markers within these herbs, which are responsible for its therapeutic property, may vary depending on whether they are cultivated or sourced from the wild. Phytochemical profiling is established from different seasons and geographical locations to ensure batch-to-batch consistency, good quality and standardization. The quality of herbs is further maintained either by cultivating herbs under supervision of agricultural scientists or by practicing sustainable collection and harvesting practices under the supervision of trained botanists (in case of herbs sourced from the wild). Herbs have to further pass through stringent quality checks as per internal specifications laid out by our scientists.
With a focus on taking herbal research to new levels, Kalinda Health care's scientists have adopted bioassay guided fractionation and purification technology to identify the active fractions. This ensures that the herbal preparation is standardized and formulation has required levels of bioactive compounds to elicit the pharmacological response. This technology will continue to help in identifying phytoactive principles responsible for efficacy, synergy and bioavailability. Kalinda Health care’s scientists are leveraging this technology for innovative treatments of ailments including cancer, male & female infertility, cardiovascular diseases, ophthalmologic conditions, chronic illness, weight management, hair care categories.
