Physico-chemical standardisation of Unani compound formulation Jawarish Zarooni Sada

ABSTRACT

Jawarish Zarooni Sada [JZS] is one of the most popular polyherbal Unani preparations, which is extensively used in renal diseases, but such an important drug has not yet been standardized for quality control. An attempt has been made in the present paper to determine various physico-chemical characteristics like extractive values, ash values, moisture contents, water and alcohol soluble contents, bulk density, pH and Rf values. These parameters would be helpful in proper identification as well as checking adulteration of the drug
