Ashwagandha Quality Story

Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera) is an Indian (Ayurvedic) herb which contains a group of clinically
important steroidal compounds referred to collectively as withanolides.
Ashwagandha contains more than fifty withanolides which vary greatly depending upon the geographic location and plant part.
The withanolide profile and content is a key determinant of Ashwagandha quality and efficacy. Liquid Chromatography/Mass
Spectrometry (LC/MS) is the method of choice for characterizing such a wide range of similar compounds and unequivocably
®
identifying key major components such as withaferin A and withanolide A. This technique is used routinely in the MediHerb
Quality Control Laboratories to identify and analyze Ashwagandha and other saponin-containing herbs.
