Gandhaka taila is a compound ayurvedic formulation prepared from gandhaka (sulphur), goghrita (cow’s ghee), Arka ksheera (latex of Calotropis procera) and Snuhi ksheera (latex of Euphorbia nerifolia).This preparation is mainly used in the management of kustha (skin disorders) and pama (scabies). In this study Gandhaka taila was prepared with classical procedure, by applying paste of gandhaka (sulphur), ghee on cotton cloth dipped in Arka ksheera (latex of Calotropis procera), Snuhi ksheera (latex of Euphorbia nerifolia) and burning this wick to collect taila (oil) and finished product was subjected to physico-chemical and chromatographic study to assess the chemical components and to lay-down the pharmacopeial standards for Gandhaka taila. The Gandhaka taila shows that it contains inorganic elements like Ca, Mg, Fe, S as sulphide and Rf value for TLC is 0.58, HPTLC shows 3 peaks, alkaline pH(7.74), less moisture content (0.13%), Sp. gravity 1.043, Total Ash value 0.125%, Refractive index 1.468, Saponification value 46.28, Iodine value 4.69, Fat contents 95.83 %.

Drug research is an important part of pharmaceutical field especially in Ayurveda pharmaceutics to revalidate and establish various formulations. Ghritha kalpana has got prime importance due to a special property of Ghritha i.e Samskarasyanuvartana. Ksheera ghritha and Ghritha are explained with different properties in Ayurveda classics. Present study is to compare between Yastimadhu Ksheera ghritha and classical Yastimadhu ghritha by organoleptic and analytical parameters. Ksheera ghritha procedure may bypass the long procedure , maximise the percentage of extract in Ghritha. Reference of Ksheera ghritha is available in various classical texts like Sushruta samhitha1 etc. Ksheera ghritha said to have properties like Netrya , Sangrahi , Rakthapitta hara etc. Ksheera ghritha of Yastimadhu prepared by preparing Ksheerapaka taken as G1 and Yastimadhu Ghritha prepared by normal classical way taken as G2. Analytical study for standardization of both samples were carried out on the basis of classically illustrated organoleptic tests and modern parameters of physico-chemical properties like LOD, Refractive index , Saponification value etc., and TLC done for qualitative analysis. By this study the major difference between Ksheera ghritha and Ghritha are established giving further scope for clinical research to establish efficacy of same. KEY WORDS : Ayurveda, Ghritha, Yastimadhu, Ksheerapaka.

This study aimed to characterize the honeys of Babors Kabylia through sensory, melissopalynological and physico-chemical parameters. Thirty samples of honey produced in this region were collected over a period of two years and analyzed. All the samples presented physico-chemical parameters in conformity with legislation on honey quality, with few exceptions, linked mainly to beekeeping management. The pollen spectrum revealed a great diversity with 96 pollen types. The main pollen types were spontaneous species as Fabaceae (Hedysarum, Trifolium, Genisteae plants), Asteraceae plants, Ericaceae (Erica arborea L.) or Myrtus and Pistacia. The sensory properties of samples showed a high tendency to crystallization, the colors were from white to brown, but most of them had gold color. Smell and odor corresponded mainly to vegetal and fruity families and in taste perceptions besides sweetness highlighted sourness and saltiness notes. Seventeen samples were polyfloral, one was from honeydew and twelve were monofloral from heather, genista plants, sulla, blackberry or Asteraceae. Heather and the honeydew samples showed the darkest color, the highest electrical conductivity and phenol and flavonoid content. A statistical analysis based on the most representative pollen types, sensory properties and some physico-chemical components allowed the differentiation of honey samples in terms of botanical origin.

Background: Desmodium velutinum (Fabaceae) is one of the wild edible plants used traditionally to treat diarrhoea, haematuria, infertility and also externally used to treat scorpion bites. Though various parts of the plant have been used for therapeutic purpose, panchanga of the plant has not been studied for its Pharmacognostical and phytochemical characteristics in detail, following scientific parameters. Hence in the present study Desmodium velutinum whole plant has been studied for its pharmacognostical and phytochemical characters and compared with commonly used species Desmodium gangeticum. Methods: Whole plant of Desmodim velutinum was collected from Paikmal, Odisha and Desmodium gangeticum was collected from Junagarh, Gujarat in the month of November 2019 following good collection practices and shade dried. Pharmacognostical study and analytical study were performed following standard pharmacopoeial procedures. Results: Whole plant (Panchanga) of former is sweetish and latter is bitter. Powder microscopy of Desmodium gangeticum showed presence of rhomboidal crystals and lignified annular and spiral vessels. Desmodium velutinum showed presence of prismatic crystals and lignified pitted vessels. Physico-chemical analysis showed higher loss on drying in Desmodium gangeticum, and higher water soluble extractive values of Desmodium velutinum. Phytochemical estimation showed the presence of Proteins, tannins, and carbohydrates in both samples. HPTLC study showed similar Rf value 0.82 and 0.94 at 254 and 0.03 and 0.41 at 366nm. Conclusion: Basing upon the analytical and microscopic similarities Desmodium velutinum may be considered as substitute of Desmodium gangeticum

Almonds (Prunus amygdalus) are a rich source of many essential nutrients. However, there is a lack of enough information on almond varieties' biochemical composition, especially at the germination stage. Therefore, this study was conducted to determine the chemical components of the germinating Tunisian almonds. The study included determining the content of oils, proteins, fatty acids, and triglycerides during germination. Results indicated that the oleaginous seeds are rich in oil (55 to 65% of the dry mass) and crude protein (21.825 mg/mL). The dominant polyunsaturated fatty acids are oleic and linoleic acids which represent 64.53% and 24.38%, respectively, while palmitic acid is the most dominant saturated fatty acid with 7.65% of the total fatty acids. Also, the primary molecular types of triglycerides detected by L.C. analysis are triolein (32.3%) and dioleolinolein (24.0%), followed by palmitodiolein (12.5%) and oleodilinolein (12.6%.). The physico-chemical properties study revealed that almond oil remains stable, thus preserving its quality and nutritional value, even during transition from dormancy to germination. On the other hand, we also detected the presence of a lipolytic activity which is maximum on the 3rd day of germination (4.66 mUI). Our results indicate that almond oil plays an important role in human nutrition due to the presence of unsaturated fatty acids, and it is more stable than other oils.

A farmer-friendly method of determining the most suitable cultivation soils would help in transferring new integrated soil management technologies. The potential for using soil color (Munsell data) was tested by physico-chemical analysis of 1028 ferrallitic soil samples from 289 profiles unequally allocated above 7 deg N in Côte d’Ivoire. Soil hue variations in depth and along the toposequence revealed the existence of vertical and lateral gradients of soil hue. The relative contribution of the different descriptors (clay, sand, carbon, total nitrogen, total phosphorus, potassium, magnesium and calcium) to the three functions extracted using a discriminant analysis to differentiate the four groups of soils with different hues was evaluated as well as the analysis of variance to determine the possible groups number for each one of the descriptors. Differences between physico-chemical components of red (2.5YR and 5YR) and yellow (7.5YR and 10YR) soils were determined, especially for P, Mg and K in extension. A decreasing gradient of inherent soil fertility indicators with an increasing yellowness in soil hue was revealed using multiple regression models. The soils 2.5YR and 5YR were therefore deemed more appropriate for stable and sustainable agriculture.Key words: Hue, ferralsols, fertility, soil use
