Standardization and Quality Control of Dadimastaka Curna-An Ayurvedic Medicine

Standardization of the Ayurvedic medicine Dadimastaka Churn has been achieved by following modern scientific quality control procedures, both for the raw material and the finished product. Three samples from different batch were prepared in-house as per AFI and subjected to various physicochemical analysis and HPTLC fingerprinting. The obtained data of physical and chemical parameters for the finished product can be adopted to lay down new pharmacopoeial standards to be followed for classical preparation of Dadimastaka Churn with batch-to-batch consistency. The Phytochemical constituents found to be present in the raw material used for the preparation of churn facilitate the desirable therapeutic efficacy of the medicine.
