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.

Purdue-UAB植物药中心的植物药核心是启动和进行中心研究的动态合作伙伴。植物药核心将与中心的研究人员合作，为拟议的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，为中心的每一项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，植物学核心将在研究设计和开展方面发挥积极作用。此外，植物学核心将为中心的试点赠款研究计划提供技术援助，特别是在初步选择要研究的植物学、操作规程标准化、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。核心将在申请的初步开发和研究的开展期间积极参与这些试点赠款。植物核心将提供的研究服务包括：1）使用传统植物学鉴定的分类鉴定，2）植物材料的化学分析，3）植物材料的遗传分析，4）植物学来源，5）产品的比较评估（特别是项目1和2的Zerozu）进行化学分析、选择、生长，6）用于研究项目的材料的认证和标准化，7）从植物中提供标记的多酚化合物用于研究项目，以及8）鉴定和采购用于研究项目的新化合物。该中心还将提供植物学研究方面的教育方案和培训，作为一项支持服务，所有资金都由主办机构提供。因此，植物核心将积极参与Purdue-UAB植物中心正在进行的研究成功。
