Summary of article contents:

BACKGROUND : Snehakalpana (medicated oil & ghee) is an integral part of Ayurvedic treatment that are used in both bahya and abhyantaraChikitsa (internal and external therapies). Dashamoola Taila and Dashmoolighrita are used in the management of Badhirya. Dashamoola Taila is prepared out of Dashamoola and tilataila as described in Chakradatta and Dashmoola ghrita is prepared out of Dashamoola and go ghrita . AIM : Analytical study of dashamoola taila and dashamoola ghrita . METHODOLOGY : Dashamoola taila and Dashamoola ghrita were prepared and subjected to analytical studies like refractive index, specific gravity, viscosity, acid value, saponification value, Iodine value , unsaponifiable matter, peroxide value, and HPTCL. RESULTS : Quantitative chemical analysis shows that in Dashmoola Taila , Refractive index-1.47006, specific gravity-0.9182, viscosity- 84.45, Acid value- 6.52, Peroxide value-0.0, Saponification value- 116.87, Iodine value- 101.75, unsaponifiable value (%)-0.59. Quantitative chemical analysis shows that in Dashmoola Ghrita , Refractive index-1.46906, specific gravity-0.9198, Acid value- 4.44, Peroxide value-0.2, Saponification value- 206.74, Iodine value- 23.07, unsaponifiable value(%)-3.00. CONCLUSION : Prepared oil and ghee are physically and chemically stable. TLC fingerprint and values of analytical study shall be used as a monograph of Dashmoola Taila and Dashmoola ghrita in the future.
