The present invention relates to a novel method of assessment of chemical and therapeutic properties of foods and traditional medicines using chromatographic finger printing useful for Chemical and therapeutic standardization. More particularly the present invention relates to organic, organo-metallic, metallic and metallo complex molecules which have absorptive or emission property of electromagnetic radiation presented in the form of Contour and 3-D stable and motion graphics present in natural or man made foods or medicines used as a single or formulated materials, for chemical and therapeutic standardization. The analysis of biological samples like blood indicated the utility of the method for the assessment of clinical pathological conditions of healthy and diseased.
The present invention is a novel method of the development and utilization of the Contour and 3-D chromatograms of a herbal medicine and formulation developed under standardized experimental (chemical and instrumental) conditions which is proposed as a novel method of chromatographic finger printing for medicines to achieve the chemical and therapeutic standardization. When the molecular weight, refractive index, emission and absorbance properties of electromagnetic radiation of different energies by the analyte samples and the polarity are measured at specific temperature, pH, Viscosity, ionic nature of the media and volatility using suitable detectors, the properties of the analyte molecule will be known which in turn explains the energy of the analyte and its relation with a specific efficacy. When the molecular weight of the molecule having specific polarity and structure is analyzed with its absorption and emission properties of any electromagnetic radiation, under varying physical properties like its mass, temperature, volatility and viscosity, ionic media the chemical and therapeutic properties are assessed qualitatively and quantitatively leading to the assessment of their efficacy.
When the data graphics developed under different conditions as mentioned at regular time intervals are converted into an animated movie data graph movie movable on all axis between 0-360 degrees, it facilitates to understand and standardize behavior properties of the analyte at different at different times under different conditions. Rotating the movie of the datagragh will provide more accurate and holistic interpretation of the analysis.
In the world many foods and drugs are used as a part of life for dietary, nutritional and therapeutic purposes. In India the traditional customs and social activities include, use of Ayurveda, Siddha and other Traditional Indian system of medicines to maintain the general health of people. In countries where, traditional philosophies were practiced most of the day-to-day activities will be included with some kind of traditional customs. Being the most intelligent animal, man might not have made any thing mandatory for the next generations with out any purpose. Being responsible and affectionate to the next generations to keep them healthy and happy he might have proposed some discipline in the life style. But this will be understood only by the generations who created it. Due to his personality man had also mis-used, mis-interpreted and misguided the next generations for his own benefits regarding some of these traditions in due course of time. Thus some of such traditions might have made the human life miserable. Reaching a status of universalization the present scientific community should create awareness about the excellence of the traditions and medicines and revalidate if required and bring a better living atmosphere for the future generations. It is moral and ethical responsibility of the mankind to do so. By doing so man will not go backward, but gain the knowledge which has already been created and established.
In almost all world traditional medicines the basic physicochemical properties of the medicines were used to understand the chemical and therapeutic quality and efficacy of the medicines. Similarly the physicochemical parameters of the human body (Dhatu) and its various parts were well correlated by similar properties (Dosha) of the medicines. Thus a disease was identified and a suitable medicine having the properties was selected.
The basic parameters like Tridoshas (Pitta, Kapha and Vata) used in traditional medicine are understood to be categorized based on chemical properties of the material and the same was proved by the method we reported earlier (PCT/IN00/000123). When the same property, dosha is deficient, sufficient or excess to body to weight ratio, it is called dosha (defect). The optimum (energy in the body) amount of property (Pitta, Kapha and Vata) is considered to be healthy, more or less than normal are considered to be doshas (defects) imbalanced conditions of tridoshas leads to diseases manifestation.
In the present invention we report improved and new features of the method to assess the efficacy of foods and drugs used in the day-to-day life, which are helpful for accurate analysis and also to assess the clinical pathological properties of biological materials like blood.
The evidences of a well-organized system of medicine in India were traced in Harappa and Mohanzadaro (History of Medicine in India, Dr Priya Vrit Sharma) In the Indus valley civilization, a system of medicine has prevailed, in which drugs of vegetable, animal and mineral origin were used. The OSADHISUKTA of the Rigveda is the oldest document of the knowledge about plants and herbal medicines. Medicine in India owes much to the traditional knowledge of Atharvaveda of which Ayurveda is said to be a upaveda. A large number of disease-syndrome relationships were defined and described by Charaka and Susruta in their medical treatises ‘The Samhitas’. The treatment was also prescribed in a systematic manner and on rational basis.
On the other hand, it was realized that the biological phenomena couldn't be universally explained by mechanical means as each individual varies in his basic constitution i.e., Prakmthi that must be kept in mind while prescribing diet or drug to the patient. The BINARY concept like Prakriti-Purusha (in Ayurveda), Yin-Yang (in Chinese medicine), Normal-Abnormal was seen in almost all philosophies.
After going through the ancient literature it was found that the medicines were standardized using their physico-chemical properties of the materials. The color, texture, odor and taste were used as a measure of the efficacy of any medicine. When the medicines were analyzed using the method of Chromatographic Fingerprinting many generalizations and correlations were observed to be matching with traditional methods of drug standardization and therapeutic utility. They were explained with examples in the later pages of the present document.
The ancient man after many years of evolution tried to understand the nature. He started using the naturally available flora and fauna for his daily needs, in which he used the geological, plant and animal material for his dietary and health needs. Many a time some of the foods and drugs found to be beneficial for health, he made it mandatory to be used for the next generations to use under the name of TRADITIONS in day to day life and in many cultural and social activities to pass on the benefits of the medicine enjoyed by them to the later generations.
Many a time the present generations follow the health and social rules and regulations as suggested by their elders under the name of customs/traditions. No food or drug will be used/administered with out any merit in it because improvement of mind and health is a continuous process. Even though generations, who developed these customs might only be able to understand the real science of these traditions the generations who could not under stand may not be able to understand them (Traditions). The benefit and value of these customs will be enjoyed and accepted by the later generations, when they are well understood, practiced, rationally studied and explained scientifically. Otherwise the traditions become mere rituals with out serving any purpose.
It cannot be ruled out that some misinterpretations and misconceptions might have been added in due course of time. They could be removed by studying the same with rational and scientific methods and confirm and understand the real science behind in the traditional philosophies.
Many dietary habits were explained in the Dinacharya (Daily Activity/habits) and Ruthucharya (Seasonal Activity/habits) (Ritucharya, K. M. Shyam Sunder and Balasubrhmanyam, Center for Knowledge Systems, Chennai, India) to prevent formation of diseased status of the human being. Thus traditional philosophies have many preventive methods along with curative methods in traditional philosophies while dealing with human health. Because it is known that a large human population in the world cannot be maintained with curative medicines. It is thus prescribed, “Prevention is better than Cure”.
The major draw back appears to be is lack of understanding about the scientific basis of the traditional concepts used for establishing the relation of the properties of the medicines with different diseases of the human being and even animals. If this can be rationally answered most of the drug discovery problems could be solved. Another very important method practiced in traditional philosophies, which was not understandable for the modern generations, was the basis of the individualist nature of the human being and diseases for selection of suitable medicines taking both in to consideration. Thus if we can understand the chemistry behind the traditional concepts/parameters used for diagnosis and to know the efficacy of the medicines and correlate their physico chemical properties, the drug standardization, drug designing, drug monitoring and drug targeting along with disease identification become easy and understandable. In Indian traditional philosophies the concept of PRAKRITHI explains how the constitution of a human body varies from person to person, time to time, age to age and place to place. Analysis of blood samples of persons of different prakrithi show that the prakrithi concept has a basis of chemistry as understood in medicines. Figures of blood samples shown in the later part of the present document show how the concept of Prakrithi is related to Physico chemical properties of the biological substances.
The modern pharmacopoel methods being practiced for the evaluation of traditional medicines were not established based on the basic principles of traditional medicines. Hence a method of analysis to analyze the medicines with out deviating from the basic concepts is proposed. The selection, application and treatment using traditional medicines has a specific philosophical guidelines. Hence the method of standardization should also have the same basis. The present pharmacopoel methods do not have this correlation. Two different protocols should not be used for the same purpose.
In modern science, the chemical and therapeutic properties were understood by studying the constituent molecules present in drugs and foods, which can be broadly, classified in to three categories the High Polar, Medium Polar and the Non-Polar molecules like a band spectrum which will have ability to respond to different electromagnetic radiations. The total polarity of the molecule depends on the total Electrophlic and Nucleophilic moieties attached to the molecule along with the unsaturation of the molecules by their conjugation. These molecules will change their properties under different conditions like temperature, pH, pressure, viscosity and polarity of constituents and ionic or non-ionic media in which they are present. The living human body, animal body and plants will also contain the same type of molecules where in different polar molecules will carry out different functions. Diseases were cured using the medicines of same polarity as that of the disease causing chemical constituents, i.e the molecules which can create the disorder when present abnormally high or low amounts can cure the same disorder, as said Similia Similus Curator by Dr Heinemann.
Existing Methods of Drug Standardization:
We have reported a novel method of standardization using chromatographic fingerprinting (PCT/IN00/00123) for standardization of medicines. Before explaining the proposed method of standardization, the existing methods of standardization (Chemical & therapeutic) and chromatographic finger printing are discussed below. More detailed studies were incorporated in the present method. Table 1 shows different types of standardization methods used in traditional and modern medical philosophies. There is a correlation between the chemical standardization with the therapeutic standardization in traditional methods. The traditional practitioner can assess the efficacy of the medicine using traditional methods. Where as modern method does not have these correlations. If one can correlate, then the drug discovery become accurate and less complicated.
A. Prior Art on Chemical Standardization:
i) Traditional:
The great sage CHARAKE explained in his CHARAKA SAMHITA “The understanding of the totality of an entity does not arise from a fragmentary knowledge of it”. (CHARAKA SAMHITA Vi. 4.5). This makes it clear that standardization and therapeutic efficacy of any medicine in which all the constituents present in, are not taken into consideration is futile. This indicates that the efficacy of the medicines is due to the totality of the constituents but will not be due to any single constituent. Thus when a molecule is separated from a mixture of constituents it loses the required original efficacy.
Traditional herbalists used to select a medicine based on the organoleptic methods available at that time like color, texture, smell and taste by which they used to assess the chemical and therapeutic efficacy of a medicine. The similar properties were used to diagnose the disease and in a patient to select suitable medicine. They were selecting suitable medicines useful for the specific individual. These methods involve intrinsic knowledge and understanding of the inter and intra therapeutic interactions of the medicines and body constituents to cure diseases. This knowledge varies from individual to individual and depends on the individual skill and ability of the practitioner or philosopher. Practically it will be difficult to provide a rational basis and understanding in terms of modern chemical terms for any mechanism to explain, using personified methods. Hence modern science uses instruments for various purposes, which eliminates the individual factors and facilitates reproducibility in data and information. Most of the times it is the energy of the disease and medicine dealt with for curing the disease. Thus measuring the energy help to over come this problem.
Hence to understand the therapeutic efficacy of a medicine or food, one needs to understand their physical and chemical properties. The basic properties classified were 1. Taste (Rasa), 2. Quality (Guna) 3. Potency (Virya) 4. Post assimilative status and effect of the constituents (Vipaka) and 5. Special action (Prabhava, medicines with same chemical properties but different therapeutic efficacies). The properties of these parameters are found to be related to their physico chemical properties measurable in the form of chemical properties.
It is these three factors namely, the Doshas (Disorders), the Dhatus (biological compounds) and the Malas (excreta) that are mainly dealt for curing a disease or a disorder. If the above-mentioned properties of the medicines tally with the dosha, it will be vitiated or balanced, thus the disease is cured.
In traditional philosophies Dosha is a term used generally to describe the status of a property when it is healthy or diseased. When the same property is present in a changed, imbalanced form, then also it is said to be Dosha (Deranged).
The selection and use of drugs according to Ayurvedic basic principles vary from one situation to another according to doshic predominance of the patient. In other words there is a relation between the medicinal properties (Dravya Gunas) and disorders (doshas). Addition or deletion of one or more drugs may be necessitated to treat an identical disease in the patients with different personalities. Hence, Ayurvedic pharmacotherapy is more individualistic according to dosha predominance of the patient and not generalized as in the case of modern medicine. Identification of Tridoshas properties (Rasa, Guna, Veerya, Vipaka and Prabhava) compatible to disorders (doshas) is unique and more reliable in Ayurvedic Pharmacotherapy. In the traditional philosophy of India about 41 properties (Gunas) were explained which will help to understand the efficacy of the medicines on the diseased conditions. Table 2-4, Shadrasa Nighantu show the classification of different medicines are classified in to different groups based on taste. The selection of the most suitable medicine for a specific taste and efficacy was done from any of the plants available. These tables show groups of herbal medicines classified in to groups based on chemical properties like taste with indicated therapeutic efficacy.
Charaka the traditional philosopher has classified a set of 10 medicines for a specific property of the efficacy. Dashaimani was observed to be a classification of medicines based on the therapeutic property: The Table 5 of Charakas Maha Kashaya Dashaimani shows how different medicines of different botanical classes were grouped for a specific therapeutic purpose. When the Chromatographic Fingerprints of medicines of one group were studied, it was observed that the classification was based on the chemical constituents having a specific physico chemical property like polarity and conjugative property and ability to respond for specific electromagnetic radiations. Table 6 shows some of the traditionally classified medicines (Ganoushadha varga) based on their different properties having commonality in efficacy many of them were used as traditional preparations in the Indian families.
In traditional medicines one of the basic parameters used for chemical and therapeutic to standardization is ‘Taste’. The interpretation of taste against efficacy depends on the health of the individual. The taste felt by an individual will depend on the health of the individual. For example when a medicine having Bitter (Tikta Rasa) and Pungent taste (Katu Rasa) is consumed by an individual, based on the polarity of the taste molecule and the polarity of the taste receptor, the respective message will be sent to brain after which the individual will express his observation. If the person is Pitta in nature and the medicine is bitter and pungent by taste, he will express that the Pungent is primary and the bitter is secondary by taste. If the same medicine is consumed by a Vata personality he will express Bitterness as primary taste and pungent as secondary. This indicates that the interaction between the taste receptor in the first case is more for pungent molecule and the respective taste receptor. In the second case it will be more for bitter molecule and the respective taste receptor. The taste receptor polarity in each of the individual is not same, hence the difference is observed. The response of the person will depend upon his health as on that moment which will change due to different factors. This method is generally used in traditional philosophies to identify the Prakrithi (Personality) of the patient as on that moment, for a better selection of the suitable medicine. Using present method of Chromatographic Fingerprinting the chemical properties of the molecule of a specific taste are studied and established the relation of taste with therapeutic efficacy of a medicine.
When large number of medicines single or formulations were analyzed it was observed that all the basic concepts in most of the traditional medicines were found to have a sound basis of chemistry. There will be variation in the properties of these doshas in medicines, man and animals. Thus there may not be a similar report of a specific taste by two different individuals for a medicine with a specific set of chemical constituents giving specific taste. This leads to opinion difference from person to person. Traditionally when herbal medicines are assessed for a specific taste and also for the main and subsidiary tastes. The main taste is the one, which is felt immediately after consumption. Subsidiary is the one, which is felt later. This is called Pradhana Rasa (First taste sensed/observed by an individual) and Anu Rasa (Secondary taste sensed/observed by an individual) concept. Due to this reason the personified tests like assessment taste is considered as irrational due to its non reproducibility of the same response in any place and by any person at any time.
The Dosha Bhedas
The Doshas (Properties) in human body and medicines were understood to be present at various levels and physicians use to select a medicine suitable for a specific disease with specific property. The different combinations of the properties of Tri Doshas are explained using the above combinations.
Different permutations and combinations of the Tri doshas leading to different patterns of the human being was explained in terms of DOSHA BHEDAS as shown in Tables 7.
The energy absorbed or emitted by a sample at different conditions of temperature or pH when presented in one data will be able to explain the property of the sample under test, whether medicine or blood.
In traditional medicines the Tridoshas are categorized in to 63 states where in the Tridoshas (three energies) will be present in different permutations and combination of them. If one of the energy is deficient than optimum it is called Tara (Deficient) and if it is excessive it is called Tama (Excessive) and if it is sufficient it is called Sama (Equivalent). Three energies will be varying in their quantitative level based on the influencing factors like genetic, ecological and geological conditions, temperature, pH, Viscosity and humidity etc, One, two or three of these energies will be varying in a system leading to different states of energies. Ultimately the medicines should bring a Sama, the equilibrium status of the energy of all three doshas having the energies at required levels. These energies will be present in microorganism to Universe. The ideal combination will be Sama dosha (required levels) of all three energies.
a). Modern Chemical Standardization
The therapeutic activity of any food or drug will depend upon its physical and chemical properties. It also depends on the physico chemical properties of the diseased human being or animal, which consumes the food or medicine. This response may vary from individual to individual. This needs to be understood. Thus understanding the chemical constituents using their physico-chemical properties of medicines will help to understand the therapeutic activity of the medicine.
Traditionally, the properties of the medicines and disease patterns, in suffering and healthy humans were expressed in the traditional language, which is not understandable to the modern generations.
The physico chemical properties of the medicines play a major role on the therapeutic activity of the medicine. In modern science these properties of molecules can be understood and studied using many chemical parameters like, the molecular weight of analytes, polarity and conjugative properties leading to understand the energy system existing in the body and in medicines. Polarity is a resultant electrochemical property due to different electron donating (nucleophilic) and electron-accepting (electrophilic) moieties attached to the molecules along with the unsaturated double and triple bonds present in it influenced by an ionic or non-ionic media in which it exists. They will influence the rate of activity or reactivity of a molecule in chemical and biochemical reactions.
The second parameter that influences the activity of the molecule is the spatial arrangement of atoms leading to an asymmetric energy system in a molecule, which can create activity when it is present in a living system. Due to this reason the isomeric (Geometrical and optical isomers) molecules play an important role in the biological activity in the body where in, a large number of bio chemical pathways will be working simultaneously with out cross interactions and interference's. Hence the chemistry of CHIRAL DRUGS has become very important. Ultimately it is the total energy present in the molecule, which makes it therapeutically active. The molecular energy will depend on the energies of the atoms of the molecules, its geometry and the energy it can absorb and/or emit.
The total chemical profile compatible to the human body will be taken into consideration for standardization of therapeutic efficacy of the medicine. Hence in the present computer-based instrumental method, the total properties of all the constituents at different conditions are taken into consideration. The Chromatographic Fingerprints of the medicines were proposed as a visual tool and proof for many purposes of standardization of medicines. Before discussing the proposed method the existing methods of standardization are given below.
Existing Analytical Methods of Chemical Standardization:
Even though there are traditional methods for standardization of medicines, they are considered as irrational as they depend on the personal skills of the individual and his health and were not explained in the atomic and molecular terminology.
None of the existing methods of chemical analysis were able to correlate the physico chemical properties like taste, texture, odour and color as used traditionally to assess efficacy of the medicine. Traditional practitioners are able to assess the efficacy of the medicines based on such simple type of tests and select the medicine, which is therapeutically efficacious.
Most of the pharmaceutical analysis was done as reported in the official methods and pharmacopoeias. The chromatographic method involves a chromatogram with the peaks due to absorbance or emission of radiation at, specific wavelength by molecules eluted by a mobile phase on a separation column and the eluents detected by any suitable detectors for detection. But when there are molecules present in the analyte samples having absorbance maxima at different wavelength values from 200-800 nm or more, they cannot be detected. Thus the existing method is found to be not suitable for the analysis of herbal medicines. Also even after such analysis at single wavelength, there is no correlation between the analytical data and its efficacy in traditional terms. Where as the traditional chemical assessment like taste is indicating the efficacy of medicines. This art of assessment has been incorporated in the basic concepts of traditional philosophies by correlating the chemical properties with their therapeutic efficacy. The protocol used for drug selection and quality control should be same in any philosophy. The existing methods of standardization do not interpret the analytical data in traditional terms. The present method is proposed for this purpose. If the meaning of the traditional parameters could be explained in terms of the chemical properties, similar correlation could be achieved.
Usually the chromatographic analysis is done using a reference standard (Internal or External). With out a standard reference material, the analysis has no meaning because the PEAK of the chromatogram does not provide any kind of chemical properties of the compound eluted. Hence, the confirmation of the Qualitative and Quantitative properties (Spectral or Chemical) of the components with relation to their efficacy is unclear.
In the qualitative and quantitative analysis of medicines/drugs (Single or Formulation), the emphasis is given mainly on the spectral and chemical properties of the components eluted after analyzing the sample. The analysis is done based on the interaction of Electro magnetic radiation say the Ultra Violet and Visible radiation even up to Near Infrared radiation on the analytes and their response to it. In the existing method of chromatography, the analytical report i.e., the chromatogram under practice is not giving any of the chemical properties like polarity and relation to the efficacy of the analyte. The chromatogram is not able to show the molecules, which does not absorb at that wavelength or have a different “Absorbance maxima” other than the set wavelength (say 225 or 254 nm). If the sample is 100% pure and if it is a known molecule, then the analysis at a fixed wavelength is acceptable, but it is highly impractical in the case of herbal medicines where in more than one molecule is present absorbing at more than one wavelength. Hence the existing method of chemical standardization was found to be not useful for the standardization of traditional medicines.
Hence any chromatogram presented at a specific wavelength is not able to provide the complete chemical profile of the ingredients present in a single medicine and a formulation. So, the chromatogram is partial in its report, and is not acceptable. Any analytical method, which is not giving complete information of the analysis, is scientifically not acceptable.
In the use of herbal medicines, the medicine as a whole is used with some standard therapeutic conditions prescribed in the ancient literature and scripts. Hence the concept of searching for an active ingredient is said to be unscientific and incomplete, because it is the total profile that is responsible for the medicinal property of the medicine.
It is already mentioned (Frank R Stermirtz et al., PANS/Feb. 15, 2000/Vol 97. No 4/pp 1433-1437) that, the synergy of the other constituents present along with the major constituent is equally important because the first will not be able to do its function with out the other constituents present in the extract as explained in the beginning.
In the present method of Chromatographic Fingerprinting it is shown that in a group of molecules of medicines the property of each of the molecules, will be influenced by the others surrounding it. Thus the polarity of a molecule will vary when it is present in between a cluster of molecules having different polarities due to field effect. Even the separation pattern will change on a chromatographic column when a molecule is analyzed singly and in a mixture.
B. Prior Art on Traditional Therapeutic Standardization:
The great Indian Medical sages have understood and defined the concept of Indian medicine by clearly defining the properties, constituents and humors of the living beings. They also understood the inter and intra relations amongst them. In almost all the traditional philosophies the basic concepts include the nature and its role on the humors of the human beings. It is said that the human body is made of seven types of constituents (Saptadhatus). The normal properties (Tridoshas) are of three types. The physico chemical properties of any material in the universe are due to five elements (Pancha bhutas). The interactions of different permutation and combination of these elements will influence the health. Hence, the understanding of these properties will help to understand their physical and chemical properties and so there by, their therapeutic efficacies. The philosophers in different parts of world have also developed such concepts suitable for their science and society. In Tables 8-9 Of Rasa vs. Properties, the relation of properties and efficacy of the medicines is explained. The relation of panchabhutas and Rasas with the efficacy is also well explained in the traditional concepts of traditional medicines. Table 10 shows the relation of panchamahabhoothas and the biotransformation happening in every system of the universe. The same will happen in every part of the universe under suitable conditions. Tables 11, 12 show the relation of Panchabhutas with different physicochemical properties.
In Indian traditional philosophies, herbal medicines have also been classified based on astrological parameters. The Table 13-15 of Astrological relation of plants and medicines shows the information.
i) Traditional Method:
In ancient times (pre samhitic and pre Susrutic period in India), the physicians used NADISASTRA (Science of reading pulse) to know the status of the TRIDOSHAS (Vata, Kapha and Pitta) at the time of diagnosis to know the health status of the patient. The specific type of pulse is studied to explain the type of disorder pre-dominant in the patient (Dr P. V. Sharma, History of Medicine in India, INSA, 1992). Astastana pareeksha is one of such methods, which helps to understand the disease pattern of the patient. In traditional ayurvedic literature the morphological features of the plants were correlated with their physico chemical properties along with efficacy. Table 16 shows the same.
It is used to understand the type of dosha(s) predominant in the patient at the time of diagnosis and the respective dosha(s) to be vitiated to cure the disorder. But this art of reading NADI (Pulse) was confined to some people of high caliber, personal skill and ability with lot of discipline and experience. Hence, every traditional practitioner was not able to practice it.
The art of understanding the physico-chemical properties of the medicines and the to humours of the human being was developed and standardized. The inter and intra relations of these properties with nature which influences health had been studied and standardized thus the art of pharmacology and pharmaco-therapeutics was developed by the physicians.
The therapeutic efficacy of a drug is defined as, 1) It is a substance that is capable of bringing about an (pharmacological) action in the human body (Kriyagunavat) and 2) This is due to the collective functioning of many factors, (samavayikaranam), just as a piece of cloth results because from its many component threads acting together, The role of Panchamahabhootas has been explained on which the Ayurvedic concept of physiology, pathology, pharmacology, medicine and therapeutics were founded are known as the doctrine of Panchamahabhootas. These doctrines have been expounded, among others, by the Shad-Darshanas or the six philosophical systems of India. Of these, Ayurveda has relied on some like, the Nyaya-Vaisheshika and Sankhya-Yoga Systems.
The Shad-Darshanas claim to have sought for and ascertained the ultimate causes relating to life and life process in terms of causes and effects and enunciate the laws and principles that govern them. (The Fundamental principles of Ayurveda by C. Dwarkanath).
In the world we see, there are two main types of living things, the plants and animals. It is also said that this world is made of five great elements i.e., Earth, Water, Air, Fire and Space (As said Panchabhutas in Ayurveda). The basic properties of these materials are of two types, Strong—Powerful and Mild—Soft. If we accede to this highly tenable logic we can say that in this world, all actions are due to different per mutational and combinational series of the above properties, giving a wide range of properties and materials varying in their intensity.
In the philosophy of most of the traditional medicines world over, the co-inherence of the nature of the five constituents is taken into consideration by which the body is made. They will help in understanding the disease or disorder of the patient. This coherence is called PRAKRITHI—PURUSHA in Ayurveda, Yin—Yang in Chinese medicine.
After the Panchabhoutic concept, the concept of Tridosha (Pitta, Kapha and Vata) plays a major role in the Indian traditional medicine and the seven constituents (Saptadhatus) by which the body is made up of. Thridoshas are mention to be present every part of the body and world. Table 17 shows how different diseases erupt due to the derangement of tridoshas and the root cause of the diseases. Traditionally these imbalances of tridoshas that will be looked in to, to cure any disease first.
Ayurveda believes in the holistic philosophy of life and emphasis is given for the prevention of diseases rather than curing of diseases. The holistic approach of ayurveda advocates that the soul, mind and the body are the three integral parts of life and when these are in dynamic equilibrium and harmony, the state is called GOOD HEALTH (Arogya). When they are in disequilibrium and disharmony, the state is called DISEASE. (Vaishamya). According to ayurveda, the physiological features of various systems are maintained in dynamic equilibrium status by TRIDOSHAS. In other words, harmony of tridoshas bestows good health, disharmony results to disease. Hence, most of the time the tridoshas are dealt with, in curing any disease.
Chinese medicine classifies the status of the human body as YIN and YANG representing sorrow and happiness. These factors are attributed for various properties of the medicines and living beings. The maintenance of these factors is done holistically by taking the role of chemical, physiological and social factors in to consideration. Most of the time the Chinese medicine has a direct or indirect relation with various BIO ENERGY centers located in the body. The art of acupuncture uses the same. The other factors reported in other philosophies, have resemblance with Chinese medicine.
After the drug it is the disease that should be dealt with for which the selection of drug is made for. A disease is defined as “Any thing that brings a sadness and grief to this person (Purusha). They are of four types 1. The accidental (Agantavaha) 2. The body born (Sarirah) 3. The Mind born (Manasah) and 4. The natural (Swabhavikah). It is for this reason, most of the traditional concepts deal with both psychosomatic factors to cure the disease along with a disciplined and standardized method of life. Hence disease is an expression of imbalance in doshas. If the tridoshas can be analyzed the correlation of the disease and medicines could be understood.
As said above, it is mostly considered as those bodily diseases having their-source arise by the incompatibilities of the thridoshas Viz., Vata, Kapha and Pitta and blood individually or in combination with one another. But, the diseases like psychological to are dealt in a different way. That is why any traditional philosophy considers all the psychosomatic factors in to consideration to deal with a disease. The individual properties of the doshas are explained as given below.
A detailed description of all the factors is given in our earlier patent for various philosophies in order to under stand more generally about different traditional medicines world over. Table 18 gives an concise description of the Indian Ayurvedic philosophy and various components in it. Tables 19-21 show how the medicines were classified based on their physico chemical properties and efficacy.
ii) Modern Method of Therapeutic Standardization:
The existing pharmacotherapy has not taken the above-mentioned concepts into consideration. Phytochemists are interested only in isolation, purification and structural elucidation of the active principles isolated from the plants and they passed on them to pharmacologists to study their biological activity. The pharmacologists in turn screen the molecule(s) for pharmacological activity, establish its mechanism(s) of action and substantially rate its efficacy in comparison with the existing standard drugs used in modern medicine.
This concept is in no way going to help the traditional medical practitioners since the isolation of the active principle(s) drastically change the holistic character of the medicines and their therapeutic efficacy.
Instead of assaying the solvent extraction fractions, active principles etc., obtained from the individual plants, the analysis of total extract from a medicine using a solvent compatible to the human cells and cell membranes of the body will be of much use to evaluate the pharmacological activity of such medicines.
In the modern clinical trials conducted for the therapeutic standardization they are done in three phases (four in the case of international utility), involving large number of people. The information regarding a new medicine to be submitted to Drug Controller generally consists of,
1. Chemical structure
2. Pharmacological class
3. Formulation details
4. Data on animals including data on toxicity studies
5. Data on clinical pharmacology including pharmacokinetics (Behavior of the Drug in the Human Body)
6. Pharmacodynamics (Actions of the drug inside the body)
7. Special studies and status of the drug in the rest of the world.
8. Data on Bio-Equivalence studies
But all the above studies are costly and time consuming. Basically they will not be taking into account of the role of the ecological factors, the genetic discipline (as practiced in the Indian family and marriage relations), the psychological, the social and other variable parameters of the patient in to consideration. This will make the effectiveness of the drug limited to a particular group or genetic type of people.
The existing modern methods of chemical and therapeutic standardization will not explain the basic concepts of traditional medicine. The success of traditional medicines is due to the strength of the basic concepts. Hence if any method can explain the efficacy of the medicines using the basic concepts it will be useful.
As said in traditional concepts the thridoshas were not taken into consideration under drug discovery including the difference of the chemical constitution of each individual.
Thus it is very specific to a particular group of human beings. It is this reason it commonly fails to act on a wide range of populations.
The Predictive Methods of Standardization for Therapeutic Efficacy:
The Molecular Modeling:
To solve the problem of finding a lead molecule of a specific efficacy, many methods of computational chemistry are under use. It has a limitation of being able to calculate for smaller molecules only. The present hardware needs extraordinary capability to do such work on molecules of higher volumes. The parameters like Electron densities (Charges), Electrostatic potential, Dipole (and higher multiple) moments, Molecular orbitals and normal and excited state needs to be calculated. In general The Molecular Orbital Theory (MO), Density Functional theory (DFT) Valance Bond theory (VB) is under use for such calculation of energies.
Lipinskys (Advanced Drug Delivery Reviews 23 (1997) 3-25) rule of 5 says that a molecule will be poor absorptive or permeative if
1. There Are More Than Five Hydrogen Bonds
2. The Molecular Weight Is More Than 500
3. The Log P Is Over 5
4. There Are More Than 10 Hydrogen Bond Acceptors And
5. Compound Classes That Are Subtracts For Biological Transporters Are Exceptions To The Rule.
Computational method being non practical, simulated and not developed in similar conditions as existing in human or animal body they will have many limitations. Efforts are made to understand the efficacy of a medicine using the atomic and molecular properties simulated in a computer (Computational Chemistry George P. Ford, In press). They are highly mathematical and predictive. The structure activity correlation also uses the method of mathematical modeling taking the molecular properties in to consideration. But mostly they are not 100% accurate and do not interpret the efficacy interms of traditional concepts of traditional philosophies. The relation of different tastes with their efficacy was attempted to assess using such kind of modeling software's. The present method will help to understand the traditional parameters for understanding the relation of efficacy with the physico chemical properties of the constituents in the medicines.
When some medicines were studied using this type of software along with present method the results were of less conclusive.
The Retention Activity Correlations:
There are efforts to correlate the efficacy of the medicines with the retention of the molecules eluted on a chromatographic devise. Almost all have used the subjective parameters like retention were used with out much using the energy absorbed/emitted.
The adsorption phenomena happening during the process of separation of analyte molecules over a chromatographic media is similar to the pharmaco dynamics of the medicines in human body. Many efforts are going on in predicting the efficacy of the medicines of unknown origin or of synthetic origin. The retention of the molecules was correlated with reported efficacy of a specific group of medicines with a common efficacy with many limitations. But the retention time of an elution of a molecule over a separation media will be influenced by many influencing factors, like properties of mobile phase, stationary phase, pH, temperature, viscosity and other physico chemical properties which influence the energy of the molecules under study, the medicines also undergo different changes similarly while they move through the body matter. Most of the researches were not accounted for the correlation of the energy absorbed or emitted with the efficacy of the molecule or medicine. Thus the present method has many advantages over the existing method of chemical and therapeutic standardization. Some references related to this work is given in References 1-20.

Figures
The polarity on the x-axis and the ultraviolet and visible spectrum representing the conjugative properties are measured along with their quantitative properties on the z-axis. Thus in the 3-D box, a specific x, y and z coordinate indicates a specific quantum of energy able to be dealt by the molecule. Hence the energy of the molecule will be E will be equivalent to the mass of the analyte sample having a specific charge (Polarity) and being able to deal a specific amount of energy equivalent to the radiation absorbed or emitted by the analyte matter. Thus the total energy dealt by the whole sample will be E=MC2, where in the energy is the total energy of all the analytes present in the sample and the total white light (having all ranges of radiations).
But a molecule absorbing at only specific wavelength cannot have the energy of a different molecule absorbing at a different wavelength. Hence the specific quantum of energy possessed by the sample will depend on the specific wavelength dealt by the molecule. Because, no matter will be active when it is neutral, particularly a medicine with many molecules. When the frequency and wavelength is different for different radiations the radiation what we see at a particular time have not started at the same time from the source. Hence time plays a very important role in every aspect including the activity of a medicine for a person. Thus separation, measurement of the absorbed/transmitted electromagnetic radiation by their individual constituents present at various conditions of temperature, pH and ionic media has helped to assess the chemical, biological and therapeutic properties of the material under test using the above method.
The figure of 3-D energy box show a data graph generated for the same medicine analyzed under different analytical conditions like time, temperature, viscosity, and pH. It shows the change of polarity and thus the retention time, the spectrum influenced by bathochromic, hypsochromic, hypo chromic and hyper chromic effects due to the same factors. Thus it will help to assess the efficacy of the medicine or a biological sample about its changes in the physico chemical properties due to the above factors. Thus an accurate standardization of the analyte samples will be possible. A soft copy of the 3-Danimation movie has been provided with the document.
The box is the container where in the matter is shown to be changing its properties. The deficient energy present in different molecules of all polarity groups is presented to be changing to sufficient and excessive levels of energy due to different influencing factors. Any extremes of this energy gained or lost will lead to an imbalance in the properties of the material. Thus fulfilling the deficiency and removing the excessive energy will be the methods of treatments to bring normalcy in the energy levels leading to a healthy condition. Thus maintaining harmony in all the three types of energies will bring a healthy condition. Some of the Treatment used in Indian System of medicines like yoga, meditation, and pranayama involves the same. They help in bringing harmony in the variations in the energy levels, which were disturbed. Bringing back to normalcy will bring health.
When the external source of energy enters in to the body in the form of light having different wavelengths of energy, it will influence the internal energy system present in the form of quantum energy. Thus by not allowing the external energy in the form of light is maintained by CLOSING the eyes, the fluctuations of energy inside the body will be prevented. Thus creation of any imbalance in TRIDOSHAS is prevented leading to healthy condition. Thus the energy box is the closed human body in which different variations of energy will happen.
The energy box is presented in the form of software, which presents the qualitative and quantitative chemical and therapeutic qualities of a medicine or diseased and healthy conditions in a biological system. Some of the Chromatographic Fingerprints of the samples of biological nature are presented.
Level 1 show the deficient energy level of the molecule or a biological system. Thus the biochemical pathways that could not happen due to deficiency of sufficient energy for the said mechanism will not be triggered.
Level 2 show that the sufficient levels of energy of the sample under test due to which a status of healthy condition will prevail leading to a healthy system.
Level 3 show the excessive levels of energy of molecules present in a medicine or a biological system. The removal of the excessive energy of the system will bring the normalcy in the energy system and thus the health is achieved.
For example if the system is exposed to varying states of energy then it becomes unstable. Irregular breathing, irregular eating habits, irregular day to day activities, temperatures fluctuating from very low to very high etc. Many of the epidemics erupt during the intermediate stages of seasons of cold and hot climatic temperatures, humid and non-humid conditions etc, Even the fluctuating the moods of the mind also will influence the health. Hence maintaining equilibrium in every state of life is essential. The flexibility property of the human being will give tolerance against these variations hence person who possess this property will be usually healthy and happy.
Hence maintaining healthy levels of energy will lead to healthy condition for which different molecules with energy absorbing, conditioning and donating properties will be useful. The behavior of a molecule under different conditions like temperature, pH, viscosity, ionic nature of the media in which the molecule is present can be understood.
The responsive (absorption/emission) property of molecules under experimental conditions at three different levels will indicate the qualitative and quantitative changes due to the influence of different conditions like pH, temperature, viscosity and ionic nature of the media where the reaction or activity is under going. It is this reason any medicine will not behave 100% similar in different human beings. In a set of animals, which are maintained under experimental conditions, may have some commonality in the response. But practically in an un controlled conditions the same response cannot be observed. Hence the medicine tested in controlled conditions may differ in the day-to-day life of the humans in uncontrolled conditions. The study of the response of the chemical and bio chemical reactions could be tested under practical conditions.
In the animated figure the same is shown. The radiations when moved with respect to time the quantum of energy will not be the same. Similarly a molecule having a particular quantum of energy will vary in its energy when it is exposed to different temperatures, pH and Ionic media and give different results from person to person and place to place, so on. Even though the medicine is consumed at single time various constituents in it will be moving in different speeds due to their interaction with the surface on it is moving, like a set of molecules get separated over a chromatographic surface. It is the final quantum of energy being able to be measured which actually brings a change in the chemical atmosphere. Thus measurement of the energy dealt by a molecule along with its electrical charge will help to understand the chemical and therapeutic property of the sample under test.
Being an unpalatable toxic chemical it will be difficult to confirm by humans. It is not showing any sweet property as shown in the sweet example. The chemical is also showing Vata vridhi (hyper conjugated) indicating that it cannot be madhura by nature. The post-assimilated (Vipaka) status of this material was not studied due to many experimental limitations, but can be studied. Many of the medicines, which are bitter, show similar molecules at the same retention time. The salts at very high concentrations show sour taste. Thus the taste is related to the amount of energy, the molecules possess and the taste receptor it can trigger having a specific polarity. So it is the quantum of energy it can deal with that plays role in the efficacy of the medicine, irrespective of its structure, many times. So salts should be acting due to their crystalline structures of the atoms arranged in specific order and geometry, which makes them therapeutically active. The polarity of the crystals could be controlled due to the geometrical arrangements of the ionic molecules in the crystal. These crystalline molecules should be triggering the respective taste receptors, resulting to specific tastes. That is why a PDA detector was able to give spectra of salts also. This indicates the utility of the present invention for assessing the property of an unknown plant or material. Thus it helps for assessment of the chemical and therapeutic unreported medicines.
Accordingly, the novel basis of the present method is, presenting the molecules (matter) arranged in the order of polarity and their energies of absorption and/or emission properties (radiation) of the chemical constituents present in a medicine, displayed in 3-D and contour chromatograms. This is described as a novel method of Chromatographic Fingerprinting for the assessment of chemical and therapeutic efficacy of medicines. When the energy absorbed or emitted is studied under different conditions like temperature, pH the variations is used for the assessment of efficacy.
When the chemical constituents of a medicine are arranged in the order of polarity and presented along with conjugative property, the chemical profile of the medicine shows correlation with therapeutic efficacy of medicines as said in the traditional philosophies. The Chromatographic Fingerprint generated by this method is providing energy involved due to the conjugative and polarity properties of the individual molecules present in the medicines giving the therapeutic efficacy of the medicine.
The charge or polarity of any molecule depends on different charged functional groups, which will influence the activity of the molecule. In a molecule the UV-Visible absorbance/emission capacity depends on the structure and functional groups of the molecules. When the double or triple bonds are present in the molecules alternatively in the structure, it is called as conjugated. Thus the measurement of these properties will give the therapeutic efficacy of a medicine. The conjugative properties will influence the absorption and emission properties of the constituents and study of these properties will help to understand the molecular properties of the analyte. Hence use of the conjugative and polarity properties of the medicines for therapeutic standardization is the novelty of the proposed method along with the elution pattern of the molecules over a chromatographic separation media.
The present method is proposed for the quality control of herbal medicines and formulations, mostly useful for the assessment of chemical and therapeutic efficacy by using Chromatographic Fingerprinting and standardization (chemical and therapeutic) of traditional medicines. Unlike a method being used for analyzing only active ingredient or lead molecule (which is not known in many herbal medicines) for the analysis of medicines at a single wavelength. It gives the total profile of the chemical constituents present in the traditional medicines along with physical and chemical properties of the compounds (Say UV-Visible absorptive and polarity properties related to efficacy). In the first part of the method, a 2D and 3D image of the Chromatographic Fingerprint of the medicine will be generated. But as an Image cannot become Analytical Data, a computer-based (Microchip, Dongle switch, software and hardware locked) method is developed to give the Qualitative and quantitative data of the ingredients in the form of an analytical chromatographic report. This was reported in our earlier report (PCT/IN00/00123)
As said above the absorptive or emission spectra and polarity of the compounds will indicate the conjugative and polarity properties of the compounds and thus indicating the chemical/medicinal activity of the medicines. This profile of spectra of all the constituents in a single picture, “THE CHROMATOGRAPHIC FINGERPRINT” as proposed now will become the blue print of the constituents present in biological, herbal medicines and formulations. This becomes a method of identification and standardization of herbal medicines than the existing, as the peaks will express the UV-VIS or NIR radiation. Properties or conjugative and polarity properties of the constituents related to efficacy, unlike in a conventional chromatogram taken at a single wavelength along with the quantification of the constituents.
As described in the traditional standardization methods, the colors of the medicines were used to know and standardize their therapeutic efficacy. The colors of the molecules can be understood by their absorptive properties of the radiation of the UV-VIS and NIR range of radiation. The absorbance of a molecule at a particular radiation depends on the structure, functional groups, conjugation, and the extent of unsaturation. Hence the UV-VIS absorbance of any molecule is widely used in the qualitative and quantitative properties of the constituents. The colors and the therapeutic efficacies of various medicines were given in the ancient literature.
When the molecules are separated based on the polarity and their absorptive property of a range of electromagnetic radiation indicate the quantum of energy able to be dealt by the molecule. Almost all molecules are majorly absorbing at Ultraviolet radiation. Thus when they are consumed the same radiation present in excessive gets absorbed from the system and the derrangement of energy system gets reverted to normal. Excessive storage of such energy could be the causative factor for a disease and removal of the same radiation leads to bring back the healthy conditions. The medicines, which are red in color, are unable to absorb the respective wavelength of the white light, the material exposed to, so it is red in color. The energy absorbed by the molecule will be ultra violet wavelength. Thus molecules (subjective) with a specific polarity are absorbing radiation (energy), when a suitable medicine with absorptive property at a suitable wavelength will have a specific efficacy. The causative and curative energy has been dealt by the molecules, which can handle a specific quantum of energy.
Ultimately the colors of the molecules are due to a specific chemical nature of the molecule. When the same is studied the chemical property can also be understood. Thus study and understanding of the interaction of the electromagnetic radiation with matter will be useful to study the chemical nature and thus the therapeutic efficacy of the material under test. The same principle has been used in the present, method of Chromatographic Fingerprinting and standardization. Hence the use of Chromatographic Fingerprints for understanding the chemical and therapeutic properties of medicines is proposed as a novel method of standardization and assesses the efficacy of biological and herbal medicines.
The main novelty of the present method involves in the “Arrangement of molecules in a specific order of polarity which is displayed in the chromatographic fingerprint and division of the Chromatographic Fingerprint into different therapeutic zones based on the scales of wavelength (Conjugation) and retention time (Polarity) to understand the therapeutic efficacy (in traditional terms) of a single or a formulated medicine indicated by the energy absorbed or emitted by the molecule at different pH, temperature, ionic media and viscosity conditions, in a 2-D and 3-D data graph” using an instrumental and software based program. Analysis of the molecular weight of the constituent will add more information and authenticity for standardization.
After developing the analysis data in to a data base the database operations for accessing it for different commercial and regulatory activities ERP&CRM features were added to the software.
Using the computer-based (Microchip, Dongle switch, software and hardware controlled and locked) software developed, a novel chromatogram is generated which shows the conjugative (Wavelength on X axis) and polarity of all the constituents shown in a single Chromatographic Fingerprint. A barcode can also be generated for a selected peak of a molecule given in the image. Where in the X (Retention Time), Y (Wave length in contour chromatograms and absorbance in 3-D chromatograms), R (The red color indicating the highest concentration of the constituent, G (the green color indicating the lesser concentration of the constituent and B (Blue color indicating still lesser concentration of the constituent) coordinates, provided by the present software is feed in any commercially available re-salable bar coding software's, added in the present software generates a barcode for a single constituent, or for many constituents. The Image of the Chromatographic Fingerprint can be viewed on a display window attached to it. It will be displayed whenever the electronic eye of the vending machine reads the bar code. This makes the image (Finger print) and bar code proprietary for a product of an industry or a country. This is claimed as another novelty of the proposed method. The present method of giving a bar code to a medicinal product for commercial purposes is, by giving a registered number for the said product. It has no relation with the actual chemical constituents and efficacy of the medicines. But in the proposed novel method of bar coding the generation of a bar code for a product based on the chemical profile while doing the analysis it self, will be more regulatory compliance than the existing method under practice.
The data generated at different states is graphically presented in 2D and 3-D data graph, which will be useful for qualitative and quantitative chemical and therapeutic standardization.

Proposed Method of Chemical Standardization
Hence UNLIKE a method currently under use, where in a chromatogram is given at a single wavelength, a novel method of chromatographic standardization, finger printing and bar coding is proposed, using contour and 3-D chromatograms. It provides the TOTAL CHEMICAL PROFILE (properties like polarity and conjugation, there in) of the chemical constituents present in complex medicines like herbal medicines and formulations or any medicine. Further bar coding the finger prints thus generated will provide many commercial features in dealing such medicines using the ENTERPRISE RESOURCE PLANNING (ERP) and CUSTOMER RELATIONSHIP MANAGEMENT (CRM) applications.
The existing method of TLC Chromatographic Fingerprinting being used as a chromatographic finger print, is showing only an assay of the constituents present in it.
It is not providing any chemical property like conjugation or polarity. Another method of Chromatographic Fingerprinting by HPLC shows a chromatogram at a single wavelength presented as a “CHROMATOGRAPHIC FINGER PRINT” of the medicine. In this, a selected peak is identified chemically, what it is by structure, using various other analytical techniques like NMR, LC-MS and IR for structural elucidation. So the single chromatogram by it self is not able to say what the efficacy of the medicine is, with out the support of other costlier analytical instruments. It will be highly impractical to use such costly techniques for a complex herbal medicine and formulations prepared by formulating various organic and inorganic medicines for a particular therapeutic purpose.
The quality of any formulated medicine will depend on the process with which it was made. This will be different for each pharmacy or pharmacist. What actually needed for the quality control of herbal medicines and formulations is a simple analytical method that can give the number of constituents (qualitative and quantitative) present in a single medicine or formulation, and the therapeutic efficacy of the medicine under study. Hence any method, which does not provide the above information, will be incomplete.
In the proposed method of chemical standardization the constituents were first extracted in to a suitable solvent. The extract was subjected to separation into individual constituents on a High Pressure Liquid Chromatograph under standardized analytical conditions. The 3-D and contour chromatograms given by the instrument were converted in to CHROMATOGRAPHIC FINGERPRINT data graphs. The images were analyzed using image analysis software specially prepared for this work. The out put data is interpreted for the said standardization. Detailed description of the method is given in experimental description of the method.
Proposed Method of Therapeutic Standardization
The traditional therapeutic standardization is highly individualistic by ability and perception of the doctor. A general availability of such method will be practically difficult. But the existing scientific scenario emphasizes that any method or mechanism needs to be STANDARDIZED, and REPRODUCIBLE. Hence in the present method of chemical and therapeutic standardization an instrumental method is proposed which brings down the human factor. The proposed method envisages the same with out deviating from the traditional concepts.
As explained above if one can assess the therapeutic efficacy of the medicine by the physico-chemical properties (Polarity and conjugation), the activity of the medicines can be understood thus achieving the therapeutic standardization. In the present method the CONJUGATIVE AND POLARITY properties are taken in to consideration to assess the therapeutic efficacy of a medicine.
In the ancient literature a clear classification of soils and plants were given based on their physico-chemical nature and therapeutic efficacy. The selection of medicines for a particular disease was done based on the guidelines like color, texture, odor and physical appearance. The soil types and the diversity of the drug action were also mentioned while selecting a medicine. The effect of climate and its effect in the efficacy on the drug plants were also clearly mentioned. Because the chemical constituents present in the plant depends on these geological and ecological variable factors, guide lines were laid down for the place of collection, time (seasonal and daily) of collection, part of plant for collection and age of plant for collection, required for a specific therapeutic action Some of the examples of the Chromatographic Fingerprints show the same.
This confirms that this method will be useful in many purposes of dealing the traditional medicines. It can be useful for modern medicines also to understand their therapeutic efficacy in traditional terms.
Various Steps Involved in the Present Invention
In the present method of analysis a Validated High Pressure Liquid Chromatograph equipped with a Binary or ternary Gradient system of pumps, a Photo Diode Array Detector (PDA), suitable instruments for measurement of conductivity and mass of the analytes are used along with a Software based data processor for presentation of the chromatographic fingerprints were used. After the complete elution of all ingredients, the 3D and contour chromatograms (having the information of the UV-Visible Spectra, absorbance and retention times of all the constituents present in a single medicine or formulation) were converted into a data graph image and proposed as a Chromatographic Fingerprint. This enjoys the merit of not requiring any internal or external standard sample for an authentic qualitative and quantitative analysis of all the ingredients present in a medicine, unlike in the present method of analysis of medicines.

The extract was subjected to separation analysis, using High-Pressure Liquid Chromatographic instrument, In the present method of analysis a Validated High Pressure Liquid Chromatograph equipped with a Binary or a ternary Gradient system of pumps, a Photo Diode Array Detector (PDA), a conductivity detector or sensor and a Software based data processor, for the preparation of the chromatographic fingerprints were used. A known amount of the sample (say 20 ul) of extract is injected into rheodyne injector (fitted with 20 ul loop). Elution of the sample was performed with suitable time programmed gradient system of mobile phase at a fixed flow (1 ml/min). Care is taken that no part of the sample is left in the column un-eluted. The following analytical conditions set for the analysis.
a. A reverse phase column was used along with a time programmed gradient-elution of an aqueous phosphate buffer (In the pH range of 3.0-9.0) and a non-aqueous solvents (acetonitrile or methanol) as eluents, based on the chemical nature of the sample under analysis.
b. A wavelength range of 200 to 800 nm was used for the PDA detector and the run time is fixed based on the time program. The range of wavelength will be up to 1100 nm based on the model of detector used.
c. The change in the concentration of non-aqueous solvent like Acetonitrile along with an aqueous mobile phase like phosphate buffer in the pH range of 3.0-9.0 as a gradient in the varying ratio 0-100% of non aqueous solvent with in a stipulated time of run with covering the entire range of polarity was used for elution. The composition of the mobile phase will end where it started. The polarity measured will help to select the required range of polarity to be covered for the total elution of the constituents. The time is not a limitation if the entire range of polarity could be covered in lesser time with out sacrificing the resolution by changing the column size, particle size, temperature, pH, viscosity, ionic nature of the whole media and other variable parameters that influence the elution pattern.
d. The gradient of solvents, temperature & pH used for the elution of the molecules.
e. Elution of same sample at different temperatures in the range of 15-70° C. and different pH values in the entire range of pH and polarity required.
The instrument was triggered for the analysis after injecting the sample into the injector. The run was stopped whenever the analysis is completed or the instrument will stop the run automatically after the entire time program is completed. Mostly the time of analysis was fixed based on the dimensions of the column and decided by the absorption of the eluting compounds.
The Separation
When a chemical constituent is in liquid, if it is immiscible in the liquid, it will not get dissolved and does not interact with the media or the constituents in the media. There is no interaction between both. If the constituent is miscible then it should be charged, compatible to the media. If it is anionic, then it will bond with the cationic (like Hydrogen in water) component of the media or any such ion present in the media. It may also bond with anionic part of the media. Thus it will form a new soluble or insoluble moiety in the medium. The new moiety will be come a foreign body in the media container, which will have its own physico chemical properties. If the molecule is zwitter ionic then both reactions will happen. In water type of solvents are used then hydrogen bonding will also influence the interactions among the ionic molecules along with already happening ionic, covalent or coordinate covalent bonding among the ionic constituents present in the media.
If a material moves over a smooth surface, it simply moves from one place to another, with out any interaction with in no time if there is no inertia, due to any interaction between both. If the constituent is charged then it will interact with the charged surface at different rates and intensities and its movement will get influenced. The interactions depend upon the charges of the surface and the moving molecule. When the movement of the material is due to a third factor, and it is charged/uncharged, it also influences the movement of the material.
When a charged/uncharged molecule is made to move over a charged surface like a stationary phase of a chromatographic column, the velocity/movement of the molecule will depend on the total charge interactions of the molecules, media and surface. The charge can be understood using the polarity property where cation is high polar (high conductive) anion is non polar (non conductive) and zwitter ion is medium polar. The molecule after interacting with the stationary phase, may get distorted based their chemical and thermal stabilities. The chemically labile constituents may get divided/fragmented if they are weakly bound. The hydrophilic and hydrophobic moieties of the single molecules may also get divided and elute at both extremes of the retention times. The same will happen for a molecule in the biological system, thus chromatographic separation pattern correlates to the behavior of the medicine in a biological system under healthy or diseased conditions.
When a molecule is moving over a stationary phase of a closed chromatographic system, it can move like a spherical band with out any fronting or tailing viz., one component of the molecule strongly interacts with the stationary phase. Instead of making the peak sharp by changing the analytical conditions the behavior can be used as a measure for the nature of the analyte molecule. The shape of the band moving on the surface will decide the shape of the peak/peaks in a single, contour and 3-D chromatograms. This elution patterns also influence the data processing parameters for quantifying the area occupied by the data graph.
Organic or Organo metallic molecules having different types of charges will behave differently over different conditions of separations over a stationary phase influenced by specific polarity solvents. When a stationary phase like C18 with good number of theoretical plates and carbon loading is used for the elution of molecules of different polarity ions, driven by a mobile phase with varying polarity, all molecules in a mixture gets arranged one after the other, based on the hydrophilic and hydrophobic polarity interactions. The same can be implemented on a normal phase stationary phase, but the interpretation gets reversed as the pattern of elution reverses in it from the reverse phase column.
The behaviors or the separation patterns and elution patterns get influenced due to the factors like pH, temperature of the column as the thermodynamic properties of the analyte, stationary phase and mobile phase vary. A molecule elutes faster under elevated temperatures due to influenced polarity and thermodynamic properties. The spectra of the molecules will also get influenced due to blue shift or red shift. Thus when a medicine is consumed, the body pH and temperature will influence its movement in the body and will not behave in the same manner in the persons of other pH and temperatures. All other factors, which influence the above properties, of the medicine and biological system, at the site of action can change the behavior of the medicine. Hence all these factors need to be standardized for assessing the therapeutic efficacy of the medicine.
When a common method of analysis was used for different mixtures of samples of food or drug, molecules having common polarity will elute at specific retention time. All medicines used for a particular disease or nutritional purposes were analyzed, they all will elute at the same retention time, if they have same polarity. By generalizing the elution pattern of different molecules in different samples one can come to a conclusion about the properties of molecules, which have same efficacy. From a database of analytical data created using specific analytical conditions, many generalizations were brought out regarding the chemical and therapeutic properties of different medicines. The efficacy of the constituent at a particular zone was understood based on the polarity and conjugative properties of the molecules indicated by the retention time and UV Visible spectrum of the constituents arranged in a specific order of polarity. After getting separated each of the ingredients enters in to the photo diode array detector.
The molecules were separated on a chromatographic phase using the polarity inter actions of the analyte molecules, and mobile phase under the influence of pH, temperature and viscosity. A column having a specific polarity is used for analysis and the polarity of the mobile phase is varied constantly in the increased or decreased order, On a reverse phase column, the constituents present in the sample will elute in the same order, i.e., the high polar constituents will be eluted first, the medium polar constituents will elute next followed by the low or non-polar constituents. The most preferred pattern is to change the polarity of the mobile phase either increased or decreased order of polarity such that no constituent of any polarity will be left un-eluted from the column thus achieving total elution. Thus controlling the polarity of the mobile phase will facilitate to bring a required influence on the polarity of the constituents to achieve separation of required order of elution. The order of elution of different polar molecules will depend on the order of elution with respective polar mobile phases.
The order and properties of polarity and elution in the case of normal phase columns are applicable same as in the case of reverse phase column but in reverse. In a normal phase column the non-polar constituents will elute first and followed by polar constituents, based on the order of polarity of the mobile phase used for elution.
The elution order of the molecules will be depending on the elution order of polarity interactions between column, molecules and mobile phase. Analysis on any kind of column where in the molecules are able to be arranged in a specific order of polarity using a variable mobile phase or a carrier with variable gradient of polarity will facilitate to execute this method.
The interaction of the polarity of the molecules being separated, the polarity of the stationary phase used and the polarity of the mobile phase used for the elution of the sample will control the elution pattern of the molecules. The resultant inter action of all the three and other related parameters like temperature etc., will decide the elution pattern and order of elution of the constituents based on their polarity. Thus in a medicine all the polar molecules will elute in first ‘Zone 1’ (Polar zone of the image), all the medium polar molecules will elute in ‘Zone 2’ (Medium polar zone of the image) and all the low polar or non polar molecules will elute in ‘Zone 3’ (Non polar zone of the image). When the molecules eluted in these three zones of many Chromatographic Fingerprints many generalizations were made regarding the chemical and therapeutic efficacy of the medicines. This is another basis of therapeutic standardization. We have reported in our earlier patent (PCT/IN00/00123) about the division of the fingerprint on X and Y axis in to 9 different parts for the standardization of different samples,
Mostly the elution of the samples was done from high polarity mobile phase to low polarity mobile phase. Thus in the finger prints the constituents present in the first zone (Zone-1) will be of high polar in nature on a reverse phase column and reverse to this on a normal phase column. The same pattern applies to the other zones, the medium polar constituents eluted in the medium polar zone (Zone-2) and the low or non-polar constituents eluted in the non-polar zone (Zone-3). This pattern reverses when a normal phase column is used due to its elution property as described above and the column and mobile phase conditions. Thus in the present elution also the elution of the constituents is controlled and driven in the required pattern by controlling the polarity of the mobile phase and the order of changing it in an orderly way using instrumental parameters.
If the analyte molecule is single, the ideal polarity will be the net of the polar and non-polar atoms present in it. When the same is kept in an ionic media, its polarity will be influenced. When the factors like temperature is changed it will be another value. At different temperatures it will have different values. Thus the polarity will change based on the influencing factors. When the same analyte is moving the influencing factors will be more. When it is moving over a charged surface it movement will be varying based on the total interactions between the sample, mobile phase and surface. If it is being moved by a mobile phase the movement will be further influenced. If the analyte is in a mixture the effects on the total polarity will be much different. Thus the retention of a molecule will depend on the other molecules present in the system.
When a molecule is surrounded by a group of molecules with different polarities the total polarity of the molecule will be different than when it is singly present. Thus the polarity of a molecule will vary when it is present in between a cluster of molecules having different polarities due to field effect. Even the separation pattern will change on a chromatographic media when a molecule is analyzed singly and in a mixture. Similar mechanism happens in the human body when a molecule of food or drug enters in to the body.
The Detection
Along with the charge of the molecules, it is the energy of the molecules; which is it able to deal, plays an important role in the therapeutic property of the medicine. So when all of the molecules eluted from a separation media are sent in to a photodiode array detector, the detector will provide a specific spectrum of the constituent amounting to the total quantum of energy it can deal with, based on its mass, structure and functional groups indicating its conjugative properties. But this is being a band spectra where it gets exposed to a multiple set of wavelengths, the molecules will absorb at different wavelengths on either side of the absorbance maxima. So this absorbance of the constituents at other wavelengths should also be taken in to consideration while assessing the properties of the analyte molecules. Because the molecules respond/absorb at either side of the wavelengths. It would have been a line spectrum if it gets exposed to only one wavelength of radiation. Based on the chromophores and structure, the spectrum will have one or more absorbance maxima. When all spectra of all molecules are arranged in a specific order of the polarity of the molecules arranged, the data is indicating the chemical and therapeutic property of the medicine as a whole.
When a specific set of energy system is varied in a biological system the chemical and biochemical interactions do alter. A specific mechanism of drug action could be due to a specific energy-containing molecule. When the molecule is functioning with its specific energy and exposed to another wavelength of radiation then, the activity get influenced and changed. Thus addition of unwanted energies will lead to unwanted chemical and biochemical mechanisms leading to diseased conditions.
A spectrophotometric and conductivity measurements were used for the detection of the eluted constituents from the column at specified temperature or pH. The data of each 3-D chromatogram is animated showing the variation of absorption property with temperature or pH.
The polarity and absorption properties of analyte molecules with known or measured individual mass over a wavelength range of electromagnetic radiation were measured after separating over a chromatographic phase under different temperature and pH conditions.
The colors and the therapeutic efficacies of various medicines were given in the ancient literature. The colors of the molecules are due to a specific chemical nature of the molecule. The colors of the flames were used for the quality control of metals and related products, which involves the basic spectrophotometric principles. Thus study and understanding of the interaction of the electromagnetic radiation will be useful to study the chemical nature and thus the therapeutic efficacy of the medicines. The same principle has been used in the present spectrophotometric method of Chromatographic Fingerprinting and standardization. In other terms an existing concept has been presented in the form of a novel analytical method, removing the error of human factor. All the medicines for which Chromatographic Fingerprints developed were given in different examples of Chromatographic Fingerprints of different samples. The technical details of the software are given in the release notes of the software.
Step 3: The Data Analysis.
In PDA software there are four types of display of data. One window displays chromatogram at a selected wavelength, in another it displays the on line absorbance spectra of the selected molecule, in another it displays the contour chromatogram, which displays the retention time (run time) of the analysis on X-axis and the wavelength range on Y-axis. In another window it displayed the 3-D chromatogram of the sample where in it displayed the retention time (run time) of the analysis on X axis, the concentration range on Y axis and the wavelength range on Z axis. The 3-D and Contour chromatograms thus developed after decryption and encryption of the data file graphs by the system was converted into a data graph using imager/animation software features and systems. The data of analyte at different temperatures &pH are presented in a Contour, 3-D static and animated forms movable between 0-360 degrees on any axis.
The images thus generated were analyzed by the new software developed, which provides a novel chromatogram and the qualitative and quantitative analytical data of the in-gradients present in the medicines. The pixel values represented by different colors and energy from Violet, Indigo, Blue, Green, Yellow, Orange and Red attributed as a measure of the concentration (quantitative) of the constituents proportional to the color. Extracting the individual colors mentioned above and show in separate widows for each color. This is the basis of chemical standardization. The polarity of the molecule is measured using a devise for measuring conductivity after nullifying the effect of the mobile phase. The polarity of the mobile phase is related to the polarity of the constituent under study and elution. The energy of the initial beam of source at all wavelengths is measured before and after analysis. The variations at different quantum of energy at different pH and temperature conditions will be graphically presented as a 3-D energy box. A model was shown in mpeg Movie 1.
The chromatogram developed after the analysis is divided in to three zones on X and Y-axis. The conjugative property (Absorption of a particular wavelength of radiation) is taken on Y-axis and polarity is taken on the X-axis as the elution of the constituents is controlled using the polarity of the mobile phase composition over a stationary phase with a specific polarity. Now as reported in our earlier patent, the X and Y-axis is scaled as per the therapeutic efficacy based on polarity (retention time) and conjugation (wavelength, color), Table 22. The entire image is divided in to nine chambers where in the chemical constituents have a specific conjugative and polarity property.
The image was divided in to three zones on X and Y-axis. The conjugative property (Absorption of a particular wavelength of radiation) is taken on Y-axis and polarity is taken on the X-axis as the elution of the constituents is controlled using the polarity of the mobile phase composition. Now as reported in literature the Y-axis is scaled as per the therapeutic efficacy based on wavelength (color). The entire image is divided in to six chambers where in the chemical constituents have a specific conjugative and polarity property. This in turn is proportional to the therapeutic efficacy of the constituents in the chamber. Thus when a medicine is Chromatographic Fingerprinted, based on the color represented for the absorption of a specific wavelength and having a specific polarity, the total colors in that zone is calculated and interpreted for the therapeutic efficacy of the constituents present in it. Thus the HOLISTIC therapeutic standardization and chemical standardization is achieved using this method.
When the image is divided in to three zones based on the elution pattern of the molecules eluted. The Zone 1 indicated POLAR ZONE, as the column used is a reverse phase column. The Zone 2 is indicated as MEDIUM POLAR zone where in the medium polar molecules are eluted and finally the Zone3 is indicated as low or non-polar zone as the non-polar and very low polar molecules will elute in this zone. Thus the molecules eluted in zone 1 will be polar, the molecules eluted in the zone 2 will be of medium polar in nature and the molecules eluted in the zone 3 will be of very low or non polar in nature with decreasing order from starting to end of each zone. Hence the three zones of the images will give the polarity of all the constituents eluted.
But any method without quantification will be of no use. Hence the total colors of the constituents in the image of a particular zone are considered as a representation of the amount of the polar constituents present in the medicine. Thus the total constituents present in the Zone-1 Pitta zone, Zone-2 Kapha zone, and Zone-3 Vata zone are present in the form of a PIE diagram, which represents the ratio of the efficacy of the medicine on each of the disorder. Thus a medicines having constituents in the order of 50:20:30 will be a medicines of TRIDOSHAHARA of the order of 50%:20%:30%. This was done using the software developed. Thus the therapeutic efficacy is standardized quantitatively. The increase or decrease of any one or two of the other doshas can be done by formulating medicine by adding other medicines and prepare a suitable formulation needed to cure a specific individual.
This is made possible by special software prepared for this purpose. This is another novelty of the proposed method. Presently the 3-D chromatogram is viewed as 2-D image only. But when the same data is presented as a movie file of AVI or MPEG movable on all axis between 0-360 degrees, the hidden part of the chromatograms will be viewable and the data become more accurate.
Thus a Chromatographic Fingerprint developed having the chemical constituents with a specific conjugative property and arranged in the increased or decreased order of polarity will help to bring therapeutic generalizations about the medicines. This is another novelty of the proposed method.
The data was analyzed by software, which can analyze the energy represented by the image properties or presented as contour and 3-D chromatograms.
When the 3-d chromatograms of the medicine will be analyzed using all its 3 dimensional properties of the said image. Thus the matching of the three dimensional coordinates will provide a foolproof method of comparison and analysis. The coordinate it matched will give qualitative and the extent it matched will give the quantitative data of the sample understudy. This is made possible by special software prepared for this purpose. This becomes an ultimate method of quality control.
3-D & contour Spectra of the reported herbal medicines were developed using the reported analytical conditions. The thumb nail view of the medicines will show how the finger prints can be handled by a software as it is done in the software used in handling the human fingerprints. All the features like searching the similar and compare the similar fingerprints etc., can be done by inserting the necessary software features. The images were analyzed using image analysis software prepared for chemical and is therapeutic generalizations.
The images of the fingerprints were given to Image Analysis software as said above. The analysis of images was done in which the constituents will be represented as peaks of the chromatogram and thus providing a novel presentation of chromatogram in the form of a colored bar chart as mentioned in our earlier patent. It shows the number of compounds and their conjugative properties (electromagnetic absorptive property) of all of the constituents eluted. The detailed description of the process involved in the analysis of the image is discussed in the technical features of the software.
The bar chart type of chromatogram thus developed gives a chromatogram having a scale of Retention time (o-α) on the X-axis and wavelength in the range of 200-800 nm or in the range of electromagnetic radiation used for the analysis, on the Y-axis. It gives the number of pixels occupied representing the amount of energy involved by each of the colors of each in-gradient in the image, facilitating the qualitative and quantitative analysis of the individual constituents present in it. Thus the chromatogram generated is presenting the number of constituents present in a medicine and their UV absorption range with quantity of pixels proportional to the concentration of the molecules.
Thus a Chromatographic Fingerprint having the scales of conjugation, absorbance and polarity along with molecular weight of each ingredient represented in the 3-D chromatogram will give information about the therapeutic efficacy of the medicine. is increase or enhancement of the similar dosha. Even though the Polarity is same the conjugative properties of the molecules are indicating the hara and vridhi properties.
The reactivity of any molecule will depend upon the number of double and triple bonds existing in the molecules along with the Electrophlic and Nucleophilic sites on the molecule. The moieties donating electron and accepting electron will create difference in the total electrical charge of the molecule. This makes the molecule polar. Hence polarity of the molecules will provide information about the capability of a molecule to donate or accept the electron with another molecule. This will control the activity of a molecule. Thus the information of the polarity of a molecule will speak about the reactivity of the molecule. In the present method the chromatogram provided by the method will give the conjugative and polarity properties of the constituents present in a medicine in the Chromatographic Fingerprint. Thus this method can be used for the standardization of the medicines to know the therapeutic efficacy of a medicine using their conjugative and polarity properties of the medicines. This is the novelty of the proposed method. Thus molecules with same or different conjugation are arranged in the order of polarity with different efficacy. The arrangement of molecules having different tastes indicates the same.
When all the medicines having physico chemical properties like taste were studied and grouped it was observed that all medicines having the properties are eluting in the decreasing order of polarity from Kashaya to Madhura. Hence it is understood that the order of polarity is under stood in terms of taste in traditional philosophies. When the medicines with different colors having different efficacy were arranged in a group the medicines having red colour with astringent were classified as Pitta hara. When all medicines having yellow color and Bitter taste were observed they were all eluting in the kapha zone of the image. When the medicines with black color were studied they were having constituents in all of the three zones of the medicines. When the leaf or fruit are tender they will have astringent in taste and red in color. When the Chromatographic Fingerprints of the tender leaves were observed it is seen that they have these properties. Every living thing will have a status of biotransfomation of aging. The tender fruit will be astringent in taste in the beginning and it will be pungent, bitter, sour and sweet at its final stage. Fruits will become taste less when they are over ripened. Thus this transformation is related to change of polarity of the Analyzing it using all its 3 dimensional properties of the said image will do quantification of 3-D chromatograms of the medicine.
Step 4: The Interpretation.
Thus arrangement of molecules in the specific order of polarity facilitating the assessment of the efficacy of the medicine in general and constituents in particular using any stationary phase and any mobile phase is the novelty of the method. The polarity of column, mobile phase and the constituents being separated will be controlled for such arranged and orderly elution. This facilitates the assessment of efficacy of any food or medicine. The details of the software are mentioned in our earlier patent.
The data thus provided by the analysis will give the information of conjugative (shown by the UV-VIS absorbance) and polarity properties of the individual constituents together along with polarity. The image is divided into three zones representing, Zone 1 (High polar zone or), Zone 2 (medium polar zone) and Zone 3 (low or non polar zone) scaled by retention times based on the elution pattern depending on the column used and the mobile phase. Reversing the analytical conditions can reverse the elution pattern.
The data generated was provided in the form of a database and generalizations were achieved based on the similarities and dissimilarities of the image properties based on the classification of the properties of the absorptive properties as seen in the images. The basis of the interpretation of the Chromatographic Fingerprints is based on the division of the Chromatographic Fingerprints in to nine parts on X-axis, Y-axis and Z-axis. The 3-D energy box was divided in to 27 components due to variation of the energy at different temperatures. Different X, Y, Z coordinates values indicating the respective coordinates will be used for analyzing the image and interprets the data in traditional parameters and terminology.
Most of the high polar molecules will be highly reactive chemically, thus biologically. When they enter into the first part of the digestive system. Then the constituents will enter into the stomach and intestine where they will under go different changes due to the digestive juices and their enzymes along with the influence of pathogens present in the digestive system. In the process of absorption the molecules of high activity (high polar) will immediately get absorbed by the biological system and show their therapeutic properties. This can be compared that in Ayurveda, the intestinal part of the human body is classified as PITTA zone, where the high polar molecules are playing a major role. The heat causing mechanism will play an important role in the diseases and biological mechanisms related to. It indirectly indicates the molecules of high reactive, the high polar molecules. All the constituents reported to have Agni (fire) property are eluting in this zone. The molecules of Astringent (Kashaya) are eluting in the first zone of the image.
In Ayurveda, the upper portion of the human body is defined as the KAPHA zone. Thus the molecules of medium polar molecules will play an important role in the mechanisms related to this zone. All the constituents reported to have Jala bhutas (water or liquid property like a Latex in plant and viscous constituents in blood etc.,) are eluting in this zone.
The low and non-polar constituents will be eluting in the last zone of the Chromatographic Fingerprint. Thus this zone (ZONE-3) is considered as VATA zone. Thus the basic humors of the molecules can be identified as per their polarity, which facilitates to know on what disorder (dosha) it is going to act upon. Thus the present method is useful for the therapeutic standardization of the medicines.
Thus the total constituents present in the Zone-1 Pitta zone, Zone-2 Kapha zone, Zone-3 Vata zone are present in the form of a PIE diagram which represents the ratio of the efficacy of the medicine on each of the disorder. Thus a medicines having constituents in the order of 50:20:30 will be a medicines of TRIDOSHAHARA of the order of 50%:20%:30%. Thus the therapeutic efficacy is standardized quantitatively. The increase or decrease of any one or two of the other doshas can be done by formulating medicine by adding other medicines and prepare a suitable formulation needed to cure a specific individual. Most of the immunomodulatory molecules are also have the same polarity eluting at the retention times
Thus the data will be able to give the information, how it is going to act chemically and so therapeutically. When the individual constituents present in each zone and represented graphically or by any means of data presentation, the total constituents of the respective zone will give the percentage it is going to act on the particular DOSHA. Thus the data will explain how it (medicine) is going to act therapeutically on the VITIATION of each dosha collectively based on the qualitative and quantitative properties of the constituents present in the medicine. For example if the medicines has 30% constituents in high polar zone (the pixel quantities of various colors like green, yellow, orange and red of a specific zone as quantities) 70% in medium polar zone it can be represented as a medicine acts 30% on Pitta and 70% on kapha, as the colors represent different concentrations in the Chromatographic Fingerprints. Hence a medicine can be assessed as of Pitta-Kapha hara (30-70%). Thus the vitiation of doshas are quantified. This helps the doctor to under stand the efficacy of the medicines and decide his dosage. These features are as mentioned in our earlier patent.
It was reported in our earlier patent (PCT No PCT/IN00/00123) that the properties like Rasa (taste), Guna (physical property), Veerya (potency), Vipaka (post assimilation state), and Prabhava (specific property), and many of the physicochemical properties as said in the Ayurveda and Siddha are based on chemical properties like polarity and conjugation of the chemical constituents and physical properties like viscosity, volatility etc.
While observing the Chromatographic Fingerprints developed for medicines reported to have traditional properties it was observed that molecules absorbing to words UV region are dosha Hara (Decreasing) in nature and molecules absorbing beyond 300 to 800 are dosha Vridhi (Increasing) in nature. The Hara is decrease of a dosha and vridhi is increase or enhancement of the similar dosha. Even though the polarity is same the conjugative properties of the molecules are indicating the hara and vridhi properties. The interpretation guidelines are provided in table 26.
Based on the polarity of the molecules eluted, the medicines are classified according to traditional system of therapeutic efficacy where in the polar compounds are found to be are acting on PITTA, the medium polar compounds are acting on KAPHA and the low or non polar compounds are acting on VATA. This is the basis of therapeutic standardization of the medicines. The polarity of the constituents is compared to a continuous spectrum of radiation, where in the dosha is classified as acute to chronic of each dosha. The starting of the zone will be acute and the end of the zone will represent the chronic. Thus the compounds present in the said zone will act on the said intensity of the disease.
While observing the Chromatographic Fingerprints developed for medicines reported to have traditional properties it was observed that molecules absorbing to words UV region are dosha Hara (Decreasing) in nature and molecules absorbing beyond 300 to 800 are dosha Vridhi (Increasing) in nature. The Hara is decrease of a dosha and vridhi is increase or enhancement of the similar dosha. Even though the polarity is same the conjugative properties of the molecules are indicating the hara and vridhi properties.
The reactivity of any molecule will depend upon the number of double and triple bonds existing in the molecules along with the Electrophlic and Nucleophilic sites on the molecule. The moieties donating electron and accepting electron will create difference in the total electrical charge of the molecule. This makes the molecule polar. Hence polarity of the molecules will provide information about the capability of a molecule to donate or accept the electron with another molecule. This will control the activity of a molecule. Thus the information of the polarity of a molecule will speak about the reactivity of the molecule. In the present method the chromatogram provided by the method will give the conjugative and polarity properties of the constituents present in a medicine in the Chromatographic Fingerprint. Thus this method can be used for the standardization of the medicines to know the therapeutic efficacy of a medicine using their conjugative and polarity properties of the medicines. This is the novelty of the proposed method. Thus molecules with same or different conjugation are arranged in the order of polarity with different efficacy. The arrangement of molecules having different tastes indicates the same.
When all the medicines having physico chemical properties-like taste were studied and grouped it was observed that all medicines having the properties are eluting in the decreasing order of polarity from Kashaya to Madhura. Hence it is understood that the order of polarity is under stood in terms of taste in traditional philosophies. When the medicines with different colors having different efficacy were arranged in a group the medicines having red colour with astringent were classified as Pitta hara. When all medicines having yellow color and Bitter taste were observed they were all eluting in the kapha zone of the image. When the medicines with black color were studied they were having constituents in all of the three zones of the medicines. When the leaf or fruit are tender they will have astringent in taste and red in color. When the Chromatographic Fingerprints of the tender leaves were observed it is seen that they have these properties. Every living thing will have a status of biotransfomation of aging. The tender fruit will be astringent in taste in the beginning and it will be pungent, bitter, sour and sweet at its final stage. Fruits will become taste less when they are over ripened. Thus this transformation is related to change of polarity of the chemical constituents in the living things. The interpretation of the images with chemical constituents is explained in different example figures.
This in turn is proportional to the therapeutic efficacy of the constituents in the chamber. Thus when a medicine is fingerprinted, based on the color represented for the absorption of a specific wavelength and having a specific polarity, the total colors and energy with molecular weight of the constituent/s in that zone is calculated and interpreted for the therapeutic efficacy of the constituents present in it. Thus the holistic therapeutic standardization and chemical standardization is achieved using this method. For example the electron, neutron and proton are present in every atom. Positive and negative energies are present in every molecule due to which it has activity. Combinations of these different polarities in constituents in living and non-living things create activity in the system due to balance and imbalance in them.
If we observe this are explained in terms of Panchabhutas in the universe and living things. It is said that Agni (Fire) is related to Pitta property, Jala (Water, viscosity) is related to Kapha and Vayu (Air) is related to Vata property. The nature of the Panchabhutas is used to understand the prakrithi of the person. When it is observed the Panchabhutas is seen in every system of the universe. In an atom the proton, electron and neutron are the three polarities present. In a molecule there will be a combination of these properties due to which, based on the majority of any charge the action of the molecule depends.
When any molecule having these three properties are administered to a person or animal the three doshas in the body do respond. Based on the need the utilization of the energies will be done. The rest of the energies too will have their own impact on the other doshas. For example if the patient has a Pitta dosha which become excessive (Pitta vridhi) they he will be administered with a Pitta hara medicine. When a cationic molecule is added to the body first it will substantiate the required amount of the same property and what ever excess will hence forth will be bring a change in the equilibrium in the anionic and zwitter ionic moieties of the body. It is this reason when a medicine with Pitta Kapha hara medicines is added it will increase the vata. The same was explained in traditional texts. Hence addition of any ion will be influencing the equilibrium of the other two ionic systems or doshas in body.
Movie 1
The 3-D Energy Box:
The figure of 3-D energy box show a data graph generated for the same medicine analyzed under different analytical conditions like time, temperature, viscosity, and pH. It shows the change of polarity and thus the retention time, the spectrum influenced by bath chromic, hypsochromic, and hypo chromic and hyper chromic effects due to the same factors. Thus it will help to assess the efficacy of the medicine or a biological sample about its changes in the physico chemical properties due to the above factors. Thus an accurate standardization of the analyte samples will be possible.
The box is the container where in the matter is shown to be changing its properties. The deficient energy present in different molecules of all polarity groups is presented to be changing to sufficient and excessive levels of energy due to different influencing factors. Any extremes of this energy gained or lost will lead to an imbalance in the properties of the material. Thus fulfilling the deficiency and removing the excessive is energy will be the methods of treatments to bring normalcy in the energy levels leading to a healthy condition. Thus maintaining harmony in all the three types of energies will bring a healthy condition. Some of the Treatment used in Indian System of medicines like yoga, meditation, and pranayama involves the same. They help in bringing harmony in the variations in the energy levels, which were disturbed. Bringing back to normalcy will bring health.
The energy box is presented in the form of software, which presents the qualitative and quantitative chemical and therapeutic qualities of a medicine or diseased and healthy conditions in a biological system. Some of the Chromatographic Fingerprints of the samples of biological nature are presented.
Level 1 show the deficient energy level of the molecule or a biological system. Thus the biochemical pathways that could not happen due to deficiency of sufficient energy for the said mechanism will not be triggered.
Level 2 show that the sufficient levels of energy of the sample under test due to which a status of healthy condition will prevail leading to a healthy system.
Level 3 show the excessive levels of energy of molecules present in a medicine or a biological system. The removal of the excessive energy of the system will bring the normalcy in the energy system and thus the health is achieved.
For example if the system is exposed to varying states of energy then it becomes unstable. Irregular breathing, irregular eating habits, irregular day to day activities, temperatures fluctuating from very low to very high etc. Many of the epidemics erupt during the intermediate stages of seasons of cold and hot climatic temperatures, humid and non humid conditions etc,. Even the fluctuating the moods of the mind also will influence the health. Hence maintaining equilibrium in every state of life is essential. The flexibility property of the human being will give tolerance against these variations hence person who possess this property will be usually healthy and happy.
Hence maintaining healthy levels of energy will lead to healthy condition for which different molecules with energy absorbing, conditioning and donating properties will be useful. The behavior of a molecule under different conditions like temperature, pH, viscosity, ionic nature of the media in which the molecule is present can be understood. The responsive (absorption/emission) property of molecules under experimental conditions at three different levels will indicate the qualitative and quantitative changes due to the influence of different conditions like pH, temperature, viscosity and ionic nature of the media where the reaction or activity is under going. It is this reason any medicine will not behave 100% similar in different human beings. In a set of animals, which are maintained under experimental conditions, may have some commonality in the response. But practically in an un controlled conditions the same response cannot be observed. Hence the medicine tested in controlled conditions may differ in the day-to-day life of the humans in uncontrolled conditions. The study of the response of the chemical and bio chemical reactions should be tested under practical conditions.
The polarity of a molecule is measured on the x-axis and the UV visible spectrum representing the conjugative properties are measured on Y-axis along with their quantitative properties on the z-axis. Thus in the 3-D box, a specific x, y and z coordinate indicates a specific quantum of energy able to be dealt by the molecule. Hence the energy of the molecule will be equivalent to the mass of the analyte sample having a specific charge (Polarity) and being able to deal a specific amount of energy equivalent to the radiation absorbed or emitted by the analyte matter. Thus the total energy dealt by the whole sample will be E=mc2 where in the energy is the total energy of all the analytes present in the sample and the total white light (having all ranges of radiations). But a molecule absorbing at only specific wavelength cannot have the energy of a different molecule absorbing at a different wavelength. Hence the specific quantum of energy possessed by the sample will depend on the specific wavelength dealt by the molecule. Because, no matter will be active when it is neutral, particularly a medicine with many molecules. When the frequency and wavelength is different for different radiations the radiations what we see at a particular time have not started at the same time from the source. Hence time plays a very important role in every aspect including the activity of a medicine for a person. Thus this method facilitates standardization of matter and radiation for the assessment of the quantum energy they contain and arrange the matter in an order based on their physico chemical properties and kinetics for quantum chemical studies by using an equation E=m±p Cλ Where in m is the mass, p is polarity of the analyte material at specific temperature, pH, pressure influenced by the ionic nature of the media in which it is present along with the viscosity and C is the speed of the respective radiation.
In the animated figure the same is shown. The radiations when moved with respect to time the quantum of energy will not be the same. Similarly a molecule having a particular quantum of energy will vary in its energy when it is exposed to different temperatures, pH and Ionic media and give different results from person to person and place to place, so on. Even though the medicine is consumed at single time various constituents in it will be moving in different speeds due to their interaction with the surface on it is moving, like a set of molecules get separated over a chromatographic surface. It is the final quantum of energy being able to be measured which actually brings a change in the chemical atmosphere. Thus measurement of the energy dealt by a molecule along with its electrical charge will help to understand the chemical and therapeutic property of the sample under test.
Step 5: The Applications
When the Chromatographic Fingerprints of different medicines, developed using the proposed method are studied some generalizations were observed about the therapeutic efficacies of the medicines. The same efficacy was reported in the traditional literature also i.e. the experimental and reported results are equal. Hence the method was validated by studying different medicines, having different therapeutic efficacies.
The Chromatographic Fingerprints generated are analyzed for their chemical and therapeutic properties. The basic features in a Chromatographic Fingerprint are found to be 1. The zone of the polarity in which the constituents have eluted. 2. The conjugative properties of the individual constituents present. 3. The total quantity of energy able to be absorbed by the molecule.
As described in the traditional standardization methods the colors of the medicines were standardized based on their colors and their therapeutic efficacy. It applies even in the case of any molecules. The structure, functional groups, conjugation, and the extent of unsaturation will influence the wavelength of absorption (absorbance maxima) of the molecule which is intern interpreted against the efficacy of the medicine. The more the molecule is conjugated the longer the wavelength of absorption will be. Hence the UV-VIS absorbance of any molecule is widely used in the qualitative and quantitative properties of the constituents.
For example if the samples are analyzed at three different temperature ranges like 22-27° C., 27-32° C., 32-37° C., 37-42° C. the polarity of the stationary phase, mobile phase and analyte will change. Thus the inter action will also change during the separation process. This can be correlated to the similar behavior in human being also when the drug action of molecules will change under different physico chemical conditions like temperature, viscosity, pH and ionic media existing in the body. A mixture of sample having a mixture of constituents with very little difference of polarity could not be separated at higher temperatures. But at lower temperatures it can be achieved. Thus any parameter, which can influence the polarity of the three-component system (Separation media-Mobile phase-molecule), will be able to control the physico chemical properties of the analyte. Even the absorbance will be changing to any type of effects like bathochromic, hypsochromic shift etc. The similar behavior will occur when the body temperature or pH is changing due to different external and internal factors. The movement of the drug molecules will be influenced by the said factors due to which the drug action will change. Here the body matter over which the molecule is moving is compared to the stationary phase of the column. The polarity of the body, molecule and the factors will influence the energy of the molecule, which in turn will change the chemical and therapeutic behavior of the molecule. Thus due to the difference in the environment in different human beings the efficacy will vary.
Different examples of Chromatographic Fingerprints of various medicines of different philosophies were given in
Thus in the present method of analysis, a mixture having different constituents was separated in to individual molecules/molecular fractions using a suitable analytical method, stationary and mobile phase conditions. When each of the molecules is exposed to a set of electromagnetic radiations of different wavelengths, specific spectra are generated. The spectra of all molecules eluted at different retentions become a 3-D chromatogram showing retention time on x-axis, spectra on y-axis and absorbance on z-axis. When the 3-D chromatogram is presented in a bird's eye view at different levels, different contour chromatograms can be presented as data graphs. This pattern of molecular absorption properties for the molecules arranged in a specific order of polarity along with their spectra become a pattern of the figure like a fingerprint. As it was developed using a chromatograph it has been termed as chromatographic fingerprint, which was termed with a specific trademark. Only a pattern of fingerprints which can give an identification of the analyte can only be called as fingerprint, otherwise it become a pattern of line with out any meaning. Usually a human fingerprinting software will be able to give any confirmation of the identity of the source of the image based on the data base of such images already generated for a large group of persons, by searching for similar with out which it cannot infer any thing. In the present methods, the division of fingerprint in to 9 different therapeutic zones helps to understand the probable efficacy of the medicine under study. Thus it works independently for the assessment of the efficacy of any sample understudy with out a referral standard. Based on the deranged polarity and energy in the patient, the suitable medicine, which can balance the derrangement by polarity and energy, have been selected and used. The Tridoshas were found to have the basis of polarity. The constituents having these properties will bring disease and health in man and medicines. Thus the bases of Tridoshas in a disease and drug have been understood using the present method.
As it was developed using a chromatograph it has been termed as chromatographic fingerprint, which was termed with a specific trademark. A pattern of lines in a fingerprint which can give an identification of the source can only be called as fingerprint, otherwise it become a pattern of lines with out any meaning.
If a database of fingerprints developed having known about the data and commonality relating to a specific factor like efficacy or property then it helps to build a method as prescribed in the present invention. Usually a human fingerprinting software will be able to give any confirmation of the identity of the source of the image based on the data base of such images already generated for a large group of persons, by searching for similar with out which it cannot infer any thing. But in the present method the divisions of fingerprint in to 9 different therapeutic zones help to understand the probable efficacy of the medicine under study. Thus the present method works independently for the assessment of the efficacy of any sample understudy.
Thus many of the behaviors of the molecules in a chromatographic column are correlated to the behavior of the molecules in the biological system. The food/medicines also undergo different changes due to different chemical and biochemical conditions. Based on the pH and temperatures and other influencing factors also, alter the properties of the molecules in due course of time of their stay in the biological system, the medicinal molecules will do different actions. Thus when a high polar molecule enters in to a non-polar biological system some of the polarity will get adjusted and the behavior of the medicine differ from its action from out side the body. Same behavior can be seen due to factors like temperature of the medicine and body. Thus one should be able to assess the efficacy of the medicine at the site of action by simulation of the similar conditions prevail in the biological system. The time of extraction and conditions of extraction also influence the nature of the constituents and their help to assess the therapeutic efficacy of the medicines.
After analysis of the medicines, the healthy and disease profiles of different human blood samples were studied. They have showed what a disease profile is and the role of polarity in a disease pattern and drug pattern was understood. This facilitates to assess the disease profile and the constituents of specific polarity deranged and select suitable medicines for the said disease. The disease identification, drug selection, drug targeting and drug monitoring was made possible by using this method. When the blood samples of the humans were analyzed, based on the deranged polarity in the patient, the suitable medicine, which can balance the derangements, can be selected and used. Selection of suitable medicines for a patient, suffering with a specific disease needs understanding of all properties of all factors influencing or involved in the disease pathogenesis. The environment in which the patient living should also be taken into consideration with out which the treatment will be not be successful.
Thus having a method of assessing the disease, suitable medicines and apply on a suitable patient who is suffering with a specific disease needs the total understanding of the properties of all factors influencing or involved in the disease pathogenesis. But the environment in which the patient living should also be taken into consideration with out which the treatment will be unsuccessful.
Based on the deranged polarity in the patient the suitable medicine, which can balance the derrangement, have been selected and used. The Tridoshas were found to have the basis of polarity. The constituents having these properties will bring disease and health in man and medicines. Thus the basis of Tridoshas has been understood using the present method.
After working on different diseases and medicines used for, it was observed that most of the medicines capable of absorbing the ultraviolet radiations are capable of decreasing the disease. The presence of Ultra violet radiations in the body are leading to all diseases by derrangement of biochemical and bio physical properties of the living beings. Hence increase of ultraviolet radiations is the causative factors for almost all diseases. But what is the source of these radiations in the human body deranging all components and the Gene is a million dollar question?
Thus it is understood that when the radiations of other side are decreased like the blood or mitochondria which are related to pitta got deranged, the radiations of the ultraviolet radiations dominate their effect leading to derrangement of biochemical and bio physical properties of the living beings. This correlates to the traditional concept of, maintaining the BALANCE of TRI DOSHAS leads to health. This also supports the traditional concept of the body is able to be healthy on its own by this balance of tridoshas. What we need to do is to provide the required material and hygienic conditions. So body can drive on its own, we need only to fuel it and clean it.
In addition, Table 27 shows interpretation rules of fingerprints for different therapeutic and chemical properties. A tool for identifying disease employing discussed method in view of table 27 and data processor is capable of interpreting diseased condition as anti viral for retention time of 0 to 5 minutes; as bio-enhancer for retention time of 5-10 minutes; as potency (vrishya) for retention time of 35 to 55 minutes; as anti helminthtic for retention time of 45 to 50 minutes; as channel obstruction for retention time of 45 minutes and 300 to 500 nm absorbance and as immunomodulatory for retention time of 32 to 50 minutes with a run time of 60 minutes. The range of retention time identifying the diseased condition varies by varying the said run time.
The separation, measurement of the absorbed/transmitted electromagnetic radiation by their individual constituents present at various conditions of temperature, pH and ionic media has helped to assess the chemical, biological and therapeutic properties of the material under test using the above method.
