Journal Title: Journal of Biological and Scientific Opinion - Year 2014, Vol 2, Issue 6
Abstract
To provide standard parameters for the procedures followed for the processing of formulation is very essential criteria now days to meet the demands of modern scientific world. Somanathi tamra bhasma is a simple and special method of preparation of tamra Bhasma in which shudha parada, gandhaka, haritala and manashila were used as media drugs. In this study somanathi tamra bhasma was prepared by authentic method and analyzed to provide standard parameters for the assessment of quality, each step of processing was studied, documented and analyzed well to get complete information. From 2138 g of tamra along with media drugs, 1360 g of somanathi tamra bhasma was obtained. X - Ray diffraction suggests somanathi tamra bhasma was the mixture of copper sulphide (CuS), copper oxide (CuO) with the combination of some other elements. Particle size analysis suggests, most of the particle lays between 4 to 5.6 µm and presence few nano particles. Elemental analysis by ICP-AES revels that somanathi tamra bhasma includes the elements like Cu, Fe, Al, S, As and Hg.
