Journal Title: International Research Journal of Pharmacy (IRJP) - Year 2012, Vol 3, Issue 1
Abstract
Sneha kalpana is a process where the active principles present in the drug are extracted with the Sneha (Ghee or Oil) during the pharmaceutical process. The method of preparation of different Taila kalpanas requires different Drava dravyas and different number of days for the paka. Nirgundi taila as said in Charaka Samhita Chikitsa sthana 28/134 was prepared with Tila taila as the base. The three different oil samples were prepared by adding Nirgundi Patra Swarasa as the drava dravya. The samples prepared in 1, 2, 3 days were coded as N.T.S1, N.T.S2 and NTS3 respectively. These samples were subjected to various physico-chemical analysis to determine whether there is any difference in the values of the oil completed in various numbers of days. The prepared samples were compared with the normal tila taila.
