ABSTRACT
Introduction: In Indian traditional system of medicine, peacock feather in the form of ash or water extract is used against snake bite and to treat various problems associated with lungs.

Sokhta is the process by which drugs are burnt to the charring stage but not reduced to ash. Materials and Methods: The taus feather sokhta, prepared according to NFUM, The prepared sokhta drug was analysed on the basis of organoleptic parameters; various physico-chemical parameters viz. Organoleptic Properties, Determination of Carbonized Value, Determination of pH, Alcohol Soluble Matter, Water Soluble Matter, Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy (AAS). Results and Discussion: The results have shown Keywords: Taus feather, physicochemical study, Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy. [Download Article] [Download Certifiate] |
