ABSTRACT

‘Analysis’ means the detailed examination, which reveals the minor but important aspects regarding the drug. Analytical study of a product provides some standards to judge its quality. It is useful to decide future work plan and objective parameters to know the accurate status of a drug by conducting the comparative study of various samples during drug preparation. The important aims for analytical study of ayurvedic drugs are to know the particular chemical configuration and to point out the physico-chemical changes and effect of different processing (samskara e.g. shodhana, marana etc.) it also helps to know the probable role of a media during the pharmaceutical processing. Though analytical study one can interpret the probable pharmacokinetics and access the quality of selected material and final product. However, ayurvedic analytical techniques are not sufficient to answer the queries of modern science. Hence For better utilization of ayurvedic pharmaceutics, it is need of the hour to analyze the drug through both classical and modern qualitative and quantitative parameters. The quality of a dosage form should not only be tested at the end but must built into the product right from the moment of receipt of raw materials through processing until the final packaging. The Physico-chemical analysis provides the objective parameters to improvise the standards for quality of raw drugs as well as finished products.
