- Introduction
- TM-MC provides information on the constituent compounds of medicinal materials in Northeast Asia traditional medicine.
Information on the constituent compounds of these medicinal materials was extracted manually from chromatography articles searched on MEDLINE and PubMed Central.
In the field of Northeast Asian traditional medicine, many databases exist that provide the constituent compounds of medicinal materials.
However, some databases are not open to the public or provide much overlapping information.
Moreover, although there exists many databases, it is difficult to decide which database to use because the sources of the information are unclear.
We aim to provide a database, for which medicinal materials are listed in the Northeast Asian (Korea, China, and Japan) national pharmacopoeias, and
for which users can easily check relevant information with the links to articles from which information on the chemical compounds of the medicinal materials has been extracted.
