Journal Title: International Research Journal of Pharmacy (IRJP) - Year 2011, Vol 2, Issue 11
Abstract
Ghana Kalpana (preparation of aqueous extract) is the modified form (Upakalpana) of Kwatha Kalpana. (Method of preparation of decoction) In the present study Guduchi Ghana was prepared in seven consecutive batches. In each batch average 10.17 kg of fresh Guduchi (Tinospora cordifolia Miers.) stem, already cut into the size of 1.5 to 2.5 inches were taken with the eight times of water and Kwatha was prepared which was further heated to procure the final Ghana. Average temperature of slurry was taken with the thermometer as 91.71°C.Average flame temperature recorded was 555.43°C with pyrometer. Average time taken for the Kwatha preparation was 9.43 hrs. Average quantity of Ghana obtained in wet condition was 1593.43 g and after drying it turned to an average of 853.57 g i.e.8.42%.
