Journal Title: UNKNOWN - Year 2017, Vol 6, Issue 3
Abstract
Haridradi churna, a polyherbal preparation containing Haridra (Curcuma longa Linn.), Devadaru (Cedrus deodar Roxb), Lodhra (Symplocos racemosa Roxb), Priyangu (Callicarpa macrophylla Vahl) and Yastimadhu (Glycyrrhiza glabra Linn.) has been mentioned in Ayurveda texts for umbilical cord care in new born baby. Since the therapeutic values and efficacy of the herbals depend on many factors such as geographical variations, seasons of collection and method of preparation, a physicochemical assay and HPTLC analysis of the above formulation has been taken up in the present study. Standard protocols for AYUSH drugs have been followed in the study. The HPTLC profile of the alcohol extract of the drug revealed the presence of thirteen photochemical with Rf values ranging from 0.04 to 0.95. The results are useful in quality control and standardization of Haridradi churna formulation.
