Chemical Composition Identification of Medicinal Plants

Medicinal plants are characterized by abundant resources, low toxicity, and good efficacy, etc. Finding lead compounds from medicinal plant resources is one of the important ways of drug development. From the perspective of drug development, the exploitation of medicinal components of plants is meaningful only under the condition that the chemical substance base is clear and the pharmacological activity is clear.

What We Offer

Lifeasible focuses on the field of plant research and has developed natural product and medicinal plant analysis based on the original metabolomics. Based on the precise and advanced mass spectrometry platform and software system as well as the self-built database of medicinal plants, we make your workflow of identifying the structure of chemical components in natural products and medicinal plants easier and more accurate. We will determine the separation and identification methods based on your research objectives and sample status, including but not limited to NMR spectroscopy, normal-phase silica column chromatography, gel column chromatography, and reversed-phase column chromatography, HPLC, etc., to derive the structures of the compounds and perform relevant property testing on the resulting compounds.

We Do Better

  • We have well-established and optimized workflows and analytical assay templates to help you efficiently and accurately complete the entire process from assay to data analysis.
  • We specialize in medicinal plant solutions, based on a high-precision mass spectrometry platform for the accurate identification and quantification of natural products and compounds in medicinal plants.
  • Professional process for rapid and accurate identification of chemical components in herbal plant fractions, with our own workflow and herbal database for accurate identification of plant origin.
