Pharmaceutico-analytical Standardization of Devdarvyadi Churnakriya (Processed powder)

Abstract

In order to increase the effectiveness of the treatment and decrease the necessary dosage, the powdered form of the drug is
triturated with liquid preparations having the same components, a process called Churnakriya, which is described in
Ayurvedic classics under the idea of Bhavana Samskara (process of trituration). When it comes to powdered drugs like
Churna Kalpana, where the dosage is rather high, the Churnakriya idea is useful for lowering the dose while increasing the
drug's acceptability. Devdarvyadi Churnakriya Pharmaco-Analytical Standardization is the Goal. Devdarvyadi Churna was
made using traditional methods outlined in ancient texts. The Churna was ground using a mixture of the same elements used
to make the decoction. There was a seven-day trituration process. Organoleptic and other Physico-chemical parameters,
including moisture content, ash values, extractive values, etc., were analyzed in the traditional Devdarvyadi Churna and the
Devdarvyadi Churnakriya. To further confirm the efficacy, purity, and security of these herbal preparations, thin layer
chromatography was used. The average yield of Devdarvyadi Churnakriya from 500 gm was 666.66 gm, according to the
observations and results. Devdarvyadi Churna had a weight increase of 32.66 percent and had analytical parameters such a
loss of 6.3 percent of weight after drying, an ash value of 7 percent, an acid insoluble ash content of 3 percent, an extract ive
content of 34.8 percent in water and 4.8 percent in alcohol for a pH of 3.52. DECISION: Devdarvyadi Churnakriya was
made in three separate batches. Daily trituration for each Bhavana lasted between seven and eight hours. Bhavana's ultimate
result exhibited all the characteristics of Subhavita Lakshana (evidence of good triturat ion). Final product weight growth
was 32.66 percent.
