Abstract

The available information on the abundance of restorative plants on earth is incomplete, and the data regarding botanicals from various countries differ significantly. Thesubstantial development of theworldwide natural botanical market is attributable tothe expanding revenue ofglobal drug companies trading herbal medicines. This essential type of traditional medical care isdepended onbyapprox. 72–80% of individuals. Even though numerous restorative plants are readily used, they have never been subject tothe same strict quality guidelines as conventional drugs. Nonetheless, it is vital to have specific organic, phytochemical, and molecular tools and methods for identifying restorative plant species so that traditional and novel plant products can be safely used inmodern medicine. Molecular biotechnology approaches provide areliable and accurate way toidentify botanicals and can be used toensure thesafety and efficacy ofplant-based products. This review explores various molecular biotechnology approaches and methods for identifying botanicals. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
