Introduction: A range of smaller preparation is explained in classics other than five basic Kashaya Kalpanas. They are categorized considering the similarities in their method of preparation under ‘Panchavidha Kashaya Kalpana.’ ‘Kwathan’ is similar in Kwatha Kalpana and for preparation of Pramathya, which is Upakalpana of Kwatha. Mustakadi Kwatha is not mentioned in classics but Mustakadi Pramathya is mentioned in classics which is used in Raktatisara. Objective: Comparative Pharmaceutico-Analytical Study of Mustakadi Pramathya and Mustakadi Kwatha. Materials and Methods: Mustaka and Indrayava are taken from GMP approved Pharmacy for both preparation i.e. Pramathya and Kwatha. Only difference is, Pramathya is prepared by using Kalka of drugs and Kwatha is preparation by Yavakuta Churna of drugs. Water was added in same quantity. Method of preparation followed was same for both i.e. Kwathana. Discussion: Kalka is Guru than Yavakuta Churna as water is added for Kalka preparation and also partical size of drugs is also reduced in Kalka Kalpana. pH, specific gravity, viscocity, total solids of Mustakadi Pramathya is more than that of Mustakadi Kwatha. Mustakadi Pramathya should be used in Madhyama Doshavastha, it is Guru in nature than Kwatha Kalpana.

Abstract Total solids by drying, refractive index, and specific gravity were determined on about 375 commercial samples of tomato juice, puree, and paste. Refractive index was determined with and without dilution of tomato paste; pectic enzymes were used to aid filtration and centrifugation. A new specific gravity bottle was used. The new AOAC method for total solids was compared with the former AOAC method on 115 samples. Variations from previous tables relating refractive index and total solids were of little significance up to 20% solids but were increasingly greater as solids increased above 20%. Data obtained in these studies showed lower values for total solids than the old tables in most instances. Separate regression equations had to be calculated for the solids content of the diluted and undiluted samples. Total solids by the official AOAC method was the most precise of the methods used. However, specific gravity and refractive index were both found to have satisfactory degrees of precision

This experiment was conducted to evaluate the quality of existing ultra-high temperature (UHT) treated milk available in two selected town markets of Bangladesh. A total of 27 UHT milk samples from three different brands–Pran Dairy (A), Aarong Dairy (B) and Farm Fresh (C) were collected from local markets at Mymensingh and Gazipur districts during the period of 1stSeptember to 29th November, 2014. Parameters studied in this experiment were organoleptic (flavour, consistency, colour and appearance), physic-chemical (specific gravity, acidity, total solids, solids-not-fat, fat, protein, lactose, and ash) and microbiological (Total Viable Count and Coliform Count). All the samples were similar in respect of color, flavor, taste and texture, and no significant difference was observed. However, significant differences were revealed (p<0.05) in case of specific gravity, acidity, total solids, solids-not-fat, and protein content. On the other hand, insignificant differences were found (p>0.05) in case of fat, lactose, and ash content. Total Viable Count and Coliform count were found to be nil in all the milk samples. Milk samples of Farm Fresh UHT milk were superior to other brands of UHT Milk in terms of contents of total solids (119.23±0.57 g/kg),fat (34.97±0.35g/kg), lactose (43.23±0.51g/kg), and ash (7.00±0.26g/kg). Though there were some fluctuations in all the parameters studied, all the milk samples conformed to the standard values for UHT milk, and in general all of the UHT milk samples studied in this experiment was of good quality.Bang.

Avartana is a unique concept mentioned for Sneha Kalpana. The more the number of Avartana the more potent will be the formulation. “Shata Paka Madhuka Taila" is one such formulation that is explained in Charaka Chikitsa Vataraktha Adhikara. Samples were subjected to pharmaceutico - Analytical study to compare the probable changes that would have happened pharmaceutically & analytically. Shata paka Madhuka Taila was prepared as per reference & samples were Analysed. The change in the organoleptic characters of all the Avartita samples was noted. Consistency of taila to semisolid consistency of ghruta in proceeding Avartana was observed. A slight increase in specific gravity & Refractive index were noted, decrease in acid value & iodine value was observed. Rancidity test passed & peroxide value was nil. slight acidic pH was noted. The presence of more bands with different Rf values was seen towards 50th, 75th & 100th Avartita samples on TLC. Pharmaceutical procedure reveals that concentration of the Active bio constituents of yastimadhu & milk fat gets increased in each Avartana., And it was evident from organoleptic characters like conversion of liquid Consistency of taila to semisolid consistency of ghruta (on cooling) in proceeding Avartana. A slight increase in specific gravity & Refractive index suggests more active constituents, decrease in acid value & iodine value suggests products are more stable & less chance of rancid on successive avartana. Rancidity & peroxide value tells product are not rancid. pH changes indicate slight acidicnature & may be irritant due to high potency. TLC shows the presence of more bands towards 50th, 75th& 100th avarti samples shows more active constituents. Hence Avartana process helps for potentiating the formulation by adding active constituents. Keywords: Sneha Kalpana, Avartana, Shata Paka Madhuka Taila.

The properties and composition of buffaloes' colostrum have been compared with those of cows' colostrum. The most significant differences found between the two may be summarized as follows:(1) Buffaloes' colostrum was richer in total solids, lactose, total N, globulin N and proteose-peptone N than cows' colostrum.(2) Buffaloes' colostrum had a much wider range of fat content than cows' colostrum. A distinct difference between the two colostrums lay in the fact that while buffaloes' colostrum was definitely poorer in fat content than normal buffaloes' milk, cows' colostrum was richer in fat content than is normal cows' milk.Changes in buffaloes' mammary secretion during the transition period from colostrum to milk.The following is a summary of the most significant trends in the properties and composition of buffaloes' mammary secretion during the transition period:(1) The specific gravity, acidity and chlorine decreased until they reached a normal value at the fifth milking. This compares well with the trends reported in the literature for cows' mammary secretion during the transition period.(2) The pH increased gradually until it reached its normal level before the fifth milking.(3) The highest level of total solids occurred at the first and second milking, and dropped sharply at the third milking to the level normally found in buffaloes' milk.(4) Changes in the lactose content from the second milking onwards were very slight. This contrasts with the known trend during the transition period in cows, when a gradual increase from a low level at the first milking to higher levels at the following milkings is noticeable.(5) The total N, globulin N, albumin N and proteose-peptone N decreased from relatively high levels at the first and second milkings to lower levels at later milkings, and thus closely followed the trend shown by the total solids.Buffaloes' mammary secretion may be considered comparable in its composition to normal buffaloes' milk and suitable for human consumption from 5 to 7 days after parturition.

The present study was conducted to know the chemical qualities and adulteration of fresh raw milk collected from local markets (Bhangnamari bazaar, Sutiakhali bazaar, Vabokhali bazaar, Shombhuganj bazaar and Mymensingh sadar bazaar) of Mymensingh sadar, Bangladesh. Milk samples were analyzed for chemical parameters (contents of acidity, total solids, solids-not-fat, fat, protein and ash) and adulteration (presence of formalin, sugar or starch). Also, lactometer reading was recorded to monitor the specific gravity of the collected milk samples. Result showed that the specific gravity of milk from different sources differed non-significantly. The total solids, fat and protein contents of all the samples were in normal range except the milk fat content collected from Shombhuganj bazaar (32.66±4.04 g/Kg) and Mymensingh sadar bazaar (30.66±4.51 g/Kg) which had less (p<0.01) than the minimum legal standard of milk fat (35.00 g/Kg). The solids-not-fat content of the milk samples collected from Bhangnamari bazaar (72.93±8.78 g/Kg) and Vabokhali bazaar (79.33±6.81 g/Kg) were less than that from Mymensingh sadar bazaar (95.67±11.72 g/Kg). Developed acidity was detected in the samples from Bhangnamari bazaar (0.180±0.03), Sutiakhali bazaar (0.187±0.04%) and Mymensingh sadar bazaar (0.180±0.02%), while other samples were found to the fresh (0.150-0.157%). All of the adulteration tests showed negative results. The results suggested that though there were some fluctuations in quality among the bazaars regarding the standard of parameters, the raw milk samples were of acceptable quality.Bang. J. Anim.
