Abstract
Standardization of plant materials is the most
important aspect ·in quality control of traditional
medicine. Quality control tests of the plant materials
include identification tests, determination of
extractive values, water content, ash and acid insoluble
ash, assay of active ingredient and detection of heavy
metals contamination. Thirteen plants that have been
·chosen for this study are Acorus calamus, Areca catechu,
Cent ella asiatica, Coscinium :blumeanum, Curcuma
aeruginosa, curcuma xanthorrhiza, Labisia pothoina,
Myristida
fragrans, Orthosiphon stam.ineus, Tinospora
crispa, Zingiber cassumunar, Zingiber officinale dan
Zingiber ottensii.
Identification of plant by using their chemical
constituents as a marker compound can be done by simple
thin layer chromatography. Zingiber cassumunar can be
detected from a mixture of 17 plant by using this
technique. Three marker compounds namely (Z)-1-(3,4-
dimethoxyphenyl)
trimethoxyphenyl)
butadiene, (Z)-1-(2,4,5-
butadiene and terpinen-4-ol from
Zingiber cassumunar have been isolated· and identified
spectroscopically.
