ASSESSMENT OF DIFFERENT QUALITY CONTROL PARAMETERS OF MARKET VARIANTS OF PUNARNAVADI GUGGULU

The study was proposed to assess the variation in quality specifications between the standard formulation of the Punarnavadi guggulu made according to the Ayurvedic pharmacopoeia and market variants of Punarnavadi Guggulu so that industry and regulatory agencies can be made aware about the defects if any, and recommendations may be proposed about the quality and consistency status of the products available in the market. Different physico – chemical parameters such as diameter, thickness, weight variation, ash values, extractive values of sample in water and alcohol, Thin Layer Chromatography, HPTLC, heavy metals and aflalatoxins presence were done to ascertain the quality of this drug.
