Journal Title: STAR Journal - Year 2013, Vol 2, Issue 3
Abstract
Most of the traditional systems of medicine are effective but they require standardization. Standardization of an herbal formulation is essential in order to assess the quality of drugs, based on the amount of their active principles, physicochemical standards and pharmacognostical parameters. This article reports on standardization and comparative study of the prepared herbal formulation nisamalaki churna which is used as anti-diabetic ayurvedic formulation with standard formulation (IMPCOPS). These two batches of nisamalaki churna are standardized and comparative study was done on the basis of organoleptic, Physicochemical properties, TLC, macro and microscopic powder studies.
