Abstract
Background: Triphaladi Kashaya is indicated as one of the drug management of Prameha, so for assurance of quality of polyherbal compounds pharmacognostical and pharmaceutical analysis should be done. Methods: Triphaladi Kashaya was subjected to microscopic evaluation like macroscopic /organoleptic study, Powder microscopy, Foreign matter, Loss on drying at 1050 C, Total ash, Acid insoluble ash, Alcohol-soluble extract, Water-soluble extract, TLC Analysis solvent systems: Toluene: Ethyl acetate: Formic acid (5:4:1) Stationary phase: Pre coated silica gel 60 F254 plates. Results: Pharmacognostical study showed the presence of certain identifying characters of all the ingredients of Triphaladi Kashaya which are Haritaki, Bibhitaki, Amalaki, Vishala, Devdaru, Mustaka. In pharmaceutical study, preliminary physiochemical analysis showed loss on drying 3.80% w/w, total ash 2.22% w/w, acid insoluble ash 0.18% w/w, alcohol soluble extract 2.49% w/w, water soluble extract 2.00%w/w, TLC analysis showed 6 spots in 254 nm and 4 spots in 366 nm. Conclusion: Pharmacognostical and physiochemical observation revealed the specific characters of all active constituents of Triphaladi Kashaya and confirm purity and actualities of the drug.
