“…Paracetamol, phenylbutazone, and dexamethasone are among chemical substances that are usually added to Jamu, in order to provide pain relieving effects and comfortable sensations to the consumers. Unfortunately, many consumers do not realize the harmful side effects that can be induced by consuming these adulterated Jamu [65].…”

“…There were also evidence that in some arthritic and rheumatic herbal medicine (jamu pegal linu) was adulterated with the Piroxicam, i.e., a type of nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drug (NSAID) used to relieve the symptoms of painful inflammatory conditions such as arthritis and other similar chemical such as prednisone and naproxen [13,65]. Figure 14 provides IR transmission spectra of piroxicam, and its typical absorption bands are given in Table 2.…”

Infrared Spectroscopy - Perspectives and Applications

Adulteration in food has a detrimental effect on the product’s quality, which may result in nutritional deficiency. It can also be harmful, particularly for medicinal herbal products, as certain adulterants are very toxic to the body. It is thus critical to screen and identify the presence of any probable adulterants in food and herbal products in order to ensure the customers’ safety. Infrared Spectroscopy is a very viable technique for such purposes, as specific molecules absorb light at specific wavelengths, which correspond to the vibration frequency of the molecule’s bonds. Adulterants typically have their own unique molecular fingerprints, which exhibit their own vibrational spectra. On the basis of these principles, IR Spectroscopy is sensitive enough to detect the presence of potentially detrimental as well as harmful compounds added to food and medicinal products. This chapter describes how Infrared Spectroscopy can be beneficially used in detecting the presence of adulterants that are unintentionally or irresponsibly added to food or traditional herbal products. The last one is more of a result of a lack of knowledge and awareness of food adulterants and their deleterious impacts.

Drug Testing and Analysis

This paper reports the presence of undeclared drugs in the herbal slimming supplement Sulami ® . The four cases of the adverse drug reactions related to Sulami ® were reported to the Dutch Pharmacovigilance Centre (Lareb) or the Dutch Poisons Information Centre (DPIC). The analysis of all four collected samples revealed adulteration with sibutramine and canrenone. Both drugs can cause serious adverse drug reactions. From a legal point of view, it is clear that Sulami ® does not meet the legal requirement for safety. As defined in the European General Food Law Regulation, food business operators are responsible for food safety. This also applies to online store owners who sell herbal preparations. Thus, it is clear that it is forbidden to sell Sulami ® on the European and Dutch market. Collaboration between involved national authorities makes it possible to identify risky products. This allows the nationally responsible regulators to take targeted action. They can call on users to report sell points what makes it possible to arrest the sellers and confiscate the dangerous products. Beyond the national, also, the European enforcement organizations should take legal measures where possible, to protect public health. The Heads of Food Safety Agencies Working Group on Food Supplements "an Initiative on European level" is a good example of efforts to improve consumer safety.
