The Botanicals Core of the Purdue-UAB Botanicals Center is a dynamic partner in the initiation, and conduct of the research carried out in the Center. In collaboration with the researchers in the Center, the Botanicals Core will seek out the most appropriate botanicals for the research proposed, conduct assays of their constituents, especially polyphenolic content, insure adequate availability of the products and provide ongoing analyses of the purity and consistency of the botanicals used for the research. It will also work closely with the other cores to provide a coordinated support for each of the research aims of the Center. In relation to all the projects and other cores, the Botanical Core will play an active role in research design and conduct. Further, the Botanical Core will provide technical assistance to the Center's pilot grant research program, especially in the areas of the initial selection of botanicals to be studied, in the standardization of operating protocols, in tracing product origin and in providing product authentication (species identification, natural product profiles). The Core will actively participate in these pilot grants both during the initial development of the applications and in the conduct of the research. Research services that the Botanical Core will provide include: 1) taxonomic identification using traditional botanical identification, 2) chemical analysis of plant materials, 3) genetic analysis of plant materials, 4) botanical sourcing, 5) comparative evaluation of products (especially kudzu for Projects 1 and 2) for chemical profiling, selection, grow-out, 6) authentication and standardization of materials for research projects, 7) provision of labeled polyphenol compounds from the botanicals for use in the research projects and 8) identification and sourcing of new compounds for the research projects. The Core will also provide educational programs and training in botanical research as a support service, with all funds provided by the host institution. Thus, the Botanicals Core will be an active participant in the ongoing research success of the Purdue-UAB Botanicals Center.

普渡大学- uab植物中心的植物学核心是中心开展研究的动态合作伙伴。与研究中心的研究人员合作，植物药核心将为研究寻找最合适的植物药，对其成分进行分析，特别是多酚含量，确保产品的充分可用性，并提供用于研究的植物药的纯度和一致性的持续分析。它还将与其他核心密切合作，为中心的每一个研究目标提供协调一致的支持。与所有项目和其他核心相关，植物核心将在研究设计和实施中发挥积极作用。此外，植物学核心将为中心的试点资助研究项目提供技术援助，特别是在初步选择要研究的植物药、操作规程的标准化、追踪产品来源和提供产品认证（物种鉴定、天然产品概况）等领域。核心将积极参与这些试点拨款，无论是在初步发展应用程序，还是在进行研究。植物中心将提供的研究服务包括：1)利用传统的植物学鉴定进行分类鉴定，2)植物材料的化学分析，3)植物材料的遗传分析，4)植物来源，5)产品（特别是项目1和项目2的葛根）的化学分析、选择、生长比较评价，6)研究项目材料的鉴定和标准化，7)从植物中提供标记的多酚化合物用于研究项目；8)为研究项目鉴定和寻找新化合物。该中心还将提供植物学研究方面的教育项目和培训，作为支持服务，所有资金由主办机构提供。因此，植物学核心将积极参与普渡大学植物学中心正在进行的成功研究。
