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.

Abstract (1) For the determination of the saponification value of the acetone extract, 20 cc. 0.2 N alcoholic potash is added to the extract and the flask is heated on a water bath for 60 minutes. It is then titrated with 0.1 N HCl solution, using phenolphthalein as indicator. (2) When the saponification values of the acetone extracts of 8, 16, and 24 hours are compared, the saponification value of the 8 hour extract is seen to be high, while those of 16 and 24 hour extracts are low. This indicates (a) that the 8 hour extract contains a higher percentage of saponifiable matter than the 16 and 24 hour extracts; (b) the quantity of rubber hydrocarbon which is dissolved in the acetone extract increases with increasing time of extraction, and (c) the acid value of the acetone extract decreases during the period of extraction from 16 to 24 hours. (3) Regarding the saponification values (R) of the acetone extracts of 8, 16, and 24 hours, similar remarks may be made as in (2) above.

Important Medicinal Plant

Aloe ferox is an important medicinal plant in Southern Africa whose seeds could be useful as a source of oil. The fatty acid composition of A. ferox seed oil was determined using gas chromatography. The physicochemical properties of the oil were analysed using standard methods. The seeds yielded 19.4% of a light textured oil using the Blight and Dyer's method and 12.3% using the Soxhlet extraction method. The saponification value of the seed oil was 241.9 mg KOH/g and the peroxide value was 8.9 meq/kg. The acid value of the seed oil was 51.5 mg KOH/g (25.9% free fatty acids). The major fatty acids found in the seed oil were linoleic acid (71.8%), oleic acid (12.0%), palmitic acid (11.2%) and stearic acid (2.9%). The results obtained suggest that as A. ferox seed oil is high in linoleic acid, it could be potentially exploited in the cosmetic and pharmaceutical industries.
