Physico ChemicalTotal Ash: Not more than 0.1 per cent; Appendix 2.2.3. Acid-insoluble ash: Not more than 0.05 per cent; Appendix 2.2.4. Alcohol-soluble extractive: Not less than 25 per cent; Appendix 2.2.7. Water-soluble extractive: Not less than 50 per cent; Appendix 2.2.8. Starch content: Not less than 3 per cent; Appendix 2.2.14. Total sugars: 80 to 90 per cent; Appendix 5.1.3.2. Reducing sugars: 62 to 65 per cent; Appendix 5.1.3.1. Non-reducing sugars: 18 to 20 per cent; Appendix 5.1.3.3. pH (10% aqueous solution): 4.0 to 4.3; Appendix 3.3. Assay: The formulation contains not less than 0.003 per cent of piperine; when assayed by the following method. Estimation of piperine: Dissolve 5 mg of piperine in methanol and make up the volume to 100 ml in a volumetric flask. From this stock solution; pipette out aliquots of 0.8 to 4.8 ml into 10 ml volumetric flask and make up the volume with methanol to prepare standard solutions of 4 to 24 ng / ml. Apply 10 nl of each standard solution (corresponding to 40 to 240 ng of piperine) on TLC plate. Develop the plate to a distance of 8 cm using dichloromethane : ethyl acetate (7.5 : 1). After development; dry the plate and scan in a TLC scanner at a wavelength of 337 nm. Record the area under the curve for a peak corresponding to piperine and prepare the calibration curve by plotting peak area vs amount of piperine. Extract accurately weighed about 5 g Sooranavaleha in ethyl acetate (25 ml x 5). Filter the extracts; pool; concentrate and adjust the volume to 25 ml in a volumetric flask. Apply 10 nl of test solution on TLC plate and develop; dry and scan the plate as described in the proceeding paragraph for calibration curve of piperine. Calculate the amount of piperine in the test solution from the calibration curve of piperine.

Caution: to avoid over-roasting or under roasting the paste. Add sugar and water to the strained liquid; heat to make two-thread sugar syrup. Add the fried paste of Soorana; to the above syrup; heat with constant stirring maintaining temperature between 900 to 1000 and observe the mixture till the formation of a soft bolus; which does not disperse in water. Stop heating and allow to cool to 500. Add powders of prakshepa dravya mix thoroughly to prepare a homogeneous blend. On cooling to room temperature; add Madhu. Pack it in tightly closed containers to protect from light and moisture.

MethodTake all material of pharmacopoeial quality. Wash; dry; powder ingredients numbered 5 to 12 (Prak¾epa dravya) separately and pass through sieve number 85. Remove the skin of Sūra´a; wash and cut into pieces. Add water in a quantity sufficient to boil the Sūra´a which could be mashed easily to make a paste maintaining temperature between 900 to 1000 for boiling. Strain the liquid through the muslin cloth. Crush the boiled pieces of Sūra´a to make a fine paste; fry the paste in Gh¨ta with constant stirring maintaining temperature between 800 to 900 till the mixture turns brown. Take all the precautions to avoid over-roasting or under roasting the paste. Add sugar and water to the strained liquid; heat to make two-thread sugar syrup. Add the fried paste of Sūra´a; to the above syrup; heat with constant stirring maintaining temperature between 900 to 1000 and observe the mixture till the formation of a soft bolus; which does not disperse in water. Stop heating and allow to cool to 500. Add powders of prak¾epa dravya mix thoroughly to prepare a homogeneous blend. On cooling to room temperature; add Madhu.
