Abstract

 The problem of wound healing has been dealt at various levels since the advent of humanity and even today is a huge scope for researchers to work out and find a better solution for wound healing. The response of living tissue to injury forms the foundation of all surgical practice. Indeed, from a biological viewpoint, tissue injury & its sequelae constitutes majority of general medical problems. Wound healing is phenomenon where not only surgeons nowadays even other scientists are also involved. To find a better tool many herbs were being constantly studied. The drugs having wound healing activity were brought together and ghee out of which was prepared. Before evaluating efficacy of the drug clinically and experimentally the selected drugs were tested for the genuinity by pharmacognosy method later after preparing the formulation by pharmaceutical standards. Similar characters like trichome, fiber, spiral vessels, prismatic crystals, tannins, epidermal cells, starch were noted in all the drugs. These characters are known for serving the objective of wound healing. This compound was analyzed through qualitative and quantitative analysis by Physico-chemical parameters. It is inferred that the formulation meets the minimum qualitative standards as reported in the API at a preliminary level.

Keywords: Jati Kalpa Ghrita; Pharmacognosy; Phytochemistry.
