Its reference can be traced to Vedic period.But, at present, it is elusive in practice. It has been proved to be a steriliser by recent researches. It is used for preventive and curative aspects and in Ayurveda Pharmaceutics used as a disinfectant. Many Dhupa dravyas (fumigation drugs) are explained and are used in different combinations in various ailments. Yet, there remains an ample scope of research in this area as its practise is seldom in use.
