The genus Echinops (Asteraceae family, Echinopeae class) comprises ca. 120 species and is native to Africa, the Middle East, Europe, and Asia. In Algeria, this genus is represented by the very common species Echinops spinosus L., also known as "Tesskra", which is used as a diuretic, hypoglycemic, liver disorders, for post-partum care, and for its stomachic effects. The aim was to generate microscopic parameters of the aerial parts which could be used to identify and authenticate Echinops powders. The present study reports, for the first time, the detailed pharmacognostic characters of the different parts of E. spinosus, through microscopic approaches, coupled with statistical techniques, to analyze the structural observations. Multivariate tests were used to determine the complex relationships among the studied variables. Fifty observations were analyzed from the leaves, flowers, and roots of E. spinosus. As a result, fourteen key microscopic features were identified and analyzed by correspondence analysis. The sclereid fibers were positively linked on the first factor (0.600, 0.591), but weakly related to the second factor (0.090, 0.004). It is proposed that microscopic analysis, coupled with statistical analysis, could provide a simple platform for medicinal plant identification. This will be of particular importance for the rapid identification of medicinal plant powders used as a medicinal agent, and may be helpful in developing pharmacopoeial standards for traditional medicines in Africa.

“…The structure of stems and leaves was studied on transverse sections. The epidermal of the organs was considered from the surface according to generally accepted methods [18,21]. The raw material was crushed according to the requirements of the EuPh monograph 2.9.12 "Sit analysis" and clarified with the help of chloral hydrate R [18,20].…”

The Kazakhstan flora is rich in promising poorly-studied plants, which are traditionally used in folk medicine, but their introduction into medical practice requires additional in-depth research using modern scientific methods. Alfredia nivea KAR&KIR of the Asteraceae family, which is used in folk medicine as a neurotropic agent, is an interesting object for introduction into official medical and pharmaceutical practice.Aim. To create new medicines based on Alfredia nivea herb, it is necessary to develop methods for quality control of this raw material, therefore, the aim of the research was to determine the parameters for standardization of the Alfredia nivea KAR & KIR. herb.Materials and methods. The study objects were samples of the A. nivea herb collected in Kungei Alatau, 4.3 km southeast of the Karabulak village, Eastern Karabulak canyon, Almaty Region, Kazakhstan. The macroscopic and microscopic studies of the A. nivea herb were performed according to the methodology of the European pharmacopeia (EuPh) 2.8.23 “Microscopic examination of the medicinal plant raw material”. The macroscopic studies were performed using a magnifying glass and a MBS-9 binocular microscope, the microscopic studies were done using MS Microscopes 10 (oculars X5, X10, X15, lenses x10,x40), Micromed XS-4130 (oculars WF15X, lenses x40/0.65, x10/0.25) with a microphotonozzle (China). Identification of the main substances was carried out by the TLC method, testing and the quantitative determination of the flavonoid content were performed according to the EuPh methods.Results and discussion. Morphological and anatomical features of the A. nivea herb have been determined; on their basis Identifications A and B have been proposed; TLC Identification C of the main BAS of the raw material has been developed; indicators of purity tests have been determined. It has been proposed to carry out the quantitative determination by the content of flavonoids.Conclusions. The parameters of the A. nivea herb standardization have been determined on the basis of the following indicators: macroscopic and microscopic features, TLC identification of the main BAS of the raw material (hyperoside, rutin, quercetin and chlorogenic acid), related impurities (not more than 2 %), stems with a diameter of more than 20 mm (not more than 10 %), the loss on drying (not more than 13 %), the total ash (not more than 10 %) and at least 0.5 % flavonoids calculated with reference to rutin.
