Mr. Roger Huang was the

products and Chinese herbal medicines. In the beginning, he started by three
key questions that were “Who am I? Where do I come from? Where am I going?”
Then he introduced Intertek

After that he briefed the
history of GMP – 21CFR 210 & 211 as well as some key sessions.
Lastly, he shared his audit

certification verification points for medicinal plant bases” (藥用植物基地GACP標準與認證核查要點).
Firstly, he introduced the
history of Good Agricultural and Wild Collection Practice” for medicinal and

After the seminar, we all

And then we visited the
instrument room (e.g. GCMS, HPLC).
Lastly, we took a group
