Abstract
Background
Eichhnornia Crassipes (Mart.) Solms is a free-floating perennial aquatic plant known as “aahayathamarai”. This is used as anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidant, analgesic, skin whitening, sedative etc. Ayurvedic medicated oil (Taila) was prepared by shoots of Eichhnornia crassipes (Mart.) Solms and studied organoleptic property, phytochemical analysis and physiochemical parameters such as acid value, saponification value, refractive index and specific gravity as per standard methods.
Results
Preliminary phytochemical analysis of fresh juice and ayurvedic medicated oil of shoots on Eichhnornia crassipes (Mart.) solms revealed the presence of various components like on carbohydrate, glycoside, flavonoid, alkaloid, saponins, tannin and steroids. All the physio-chemical parameters like acid value (1.683 mg KOH/g), saponification value (182.25 mg KOH/g), iodine value (30.37 I2/100g.), refractive index (0.148), specific gravity (0.91 kg/m3) analysed were within the normal range.
Conclusion
Ayurvedic medicated oil of shoots on Eichhnornia Crassipes (Mart) Solms have alkaloid, flavonoid and saponins possess the various pharmacological activities. Physiochemical parameters such as acid value, saponification value, refractive index, specific gravity were within normal range. All the results showed the quality of the preparation is standard
