Title: [Discussion on research and development of new traditional Chinese medicine preparation process based on idea of QbD]. Author: Feng Y, Hong YL, Xian JC, Du RF, Zhao LJ, Shen L. Journal: Zhongguo Zhong Yao Za Zhi; 2014 Sep; 39(17):3404-8. PubMed ID: 25522639. Abstract: Traditional processes are mostly adopted in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) preparation production and the quality of products is mostly controlled by terminal. Potential problems of the production in the process are unpredictable and is relied on experience in most cases. Therefore, it is hard to find the key points affecting the preparation process and quality control. A pattern of research and development of traditional Chinese medicine preparation process based on the idea of Quality by Design (QbD) was proposed after introducing the latest research achievement. Basic theories of micromeritics and rheology were used to characterize the physical property of TCM raw material. TCM preparation process was designed in a more scientific and rational way by studying the correlation among enhancing physical property of raw material, preparation process and product quality of preparation. So factors affecting the quality of TCM production would be found out and problems that might occur in the pilot process could be predicted. It would be a foundation for the R&D and production of TCM preparation as well as support for the "process control" of TCMIs gradually realized in the future.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
