Ayurvedic Herbs for Oral Care – A Review
Priya Madhavan*, Arathy S. Lankupalli Saveetha Dental College, Poonamallee Campus, Chennai, India
Abstract Ayurveda is an ancient system of medicine and is a rich reservoir of resources even for
dental sciences. Ayurveda has mentioned various procedures for maintaining oral hygiene. These procedures are Gandusha, Kavala, and Dantadhavana and Jivha
Lekhana. There has been a change in thinking globally, with a growing tendency to “Go
green.” The WHO estimates that 4 billion people use herbal medicine for some aspect of primary healthcare. Most of the authors also described the application of various
medicinal plants which have least side effects and have multidrug-resistance property. An Ayurvedic medicine plays a great role in maintaining oral health. We enlighten few of
those Ayurvedic herbs here.

Enhancement of Some Pharmaceutically Important
Secondary Metabolites By in vitro Techniques
Monika Kumari* K.L.P. College, Rewari, Maharishi Dayanand University, Rohtak, Haryana, India
Abstract Secondary metabolites are economically important as drugs, dyes and pigments,
pesticides, and food additives. The evolving commercial importance of secondary
metabolites has in recent years resulted in a great interest in mechanism of secondary metabolism, especially in the production of bioactive plant metabolites by means of tissue
culture technology. Plant cell and tissue culture technologies can be established for both
multiplication and extraction of secondary metabolites. Strain improvement, methods for the selection of high-producing cell lines, and medium optimizations can lead to an
enhancement in secondary metabolite production. Organ cultures and in vitro biomass production often have sites of synthesis and storage of secondary metabolites in separate
compartments. Elicitors, compounds triggering the formation of secondary metabolites,
also increase the production of secondary metabolites. Furthermore, in vitro production of secondary metabolites in plant cell suspension cultures has been reported from various
medicinal plants. The present review highlights the nature, applications and methods for scaling up commercial production of pharmaceutically valuable secondary metabolites
by in vitro tissue culture.

Experimental Study on Collection Methods of Cassia
fistula Fruit Pulp
Mahipal D Jasani, Rasika Kolhe*, TN Pandya, RN Acharya, VJ Shukla Institute for Post Graduate Teaching and Research in Ayurveda, Gujarat Ayurved University,
Jamnagar, India
Abstract Therapeutic efficacy of the plant-origin drugs depends on many aspects of the source drug like cultivation, collection, processing, storage and pharmaceutical preparations.
Ayurveda advocates using Prashasta Bheshaja. Importance of drug collection method
along with structure of storage house (Bheshjagara) is highlighted in Ayurveda. Aragvadh (Cassia fistula L. Caesalpinaceae family) is considered as the best drug for
Mruduvirechna (mild laxative). Specific collection method of fruit pulp has been
recommended in Samhita but the recent text of Dravyaguna differs in the opinion regarding the days of burring of the pods in pits filled with sand. Therefore, an
experimental study was designed to study the effect on collection of Aragvadha fruit pulp and preliminary physicochemical parameters by putting pod under sand for different time
periods. Experiment was carried out on five samples, viz., sample A: non-buried pod;
sample B: buried for seven days; sample C: sample B kept for one month in a glass jar; sample C: buried for fourteen days; sample D: sample C kept for one month in a glass
jar. Effect of experiment was also observed on hardness of the pod, consistency of the
fruit pulp, organoleptic characters, total sugar, etc. The study concludes that Cassia fistula fruit pulp should be buried under sand for easy removal of its pulp. A marked
difference of physicochemical and quantitative phytochemical value of buried and non-
buried samples of Cassia fistula fruit pulp was observed. In buried samples, as the
number of days increase, the non-reducing sugar was found to be decreased significantly.
Only fully ripen pods should be collected and seven days are sufficient for the burring process.

Role of Unani Herbal Medicines in the Management of
Diabetes Mellitus and Its Complications – A Review

Abstract Diabetes mellitus is a common and chronic metabolic disorder characterized by
increased blood glucose level. In Unani system of medicine, diabetes mellitus is known as
Ziabetus Sukkari. The prevalence of diabetes in India is 40.9 million and it is expected to be 69.6 million by 2025 if imperative preventive measurements are not taken. In this
condition, the patient will suffer from chronic hyperglycemia which leads to irreversible damage to vital organs. This damage is due to increased free-radical production and
oxidative stress. According to Unani concept, it is due to weakness of kidney, Sue Mizaj
Haar Kulliya (ill temperament of kidney), Burudat Kuliya (coldness of the kidneys), QawiQuwat-e-Jaziba (strong expulsive power) and Kamzor Quwate Masika (weakness of
retentive power). Hence the herbal medicines having the temperament of cold and wet and properties of tonic to the liver and kidneys would be more beneficial. Hence herbal
preparations having antihyperglycemic, antioxidant and protective effect of heart,
kidneys and nerves are more valuable. This review focuses on antihyperglycemic, antioxidant, cardio-protective, neuro-protective and nephron-protective effect of herbal
medicines documented in preclinical and clinical trials. These herbs are Jamun (Eugenia
jambolana), Karela (Momordica charantia), Tulasi (Ocimum sanctum), Bijasar (Pterocarpus marsupium), Gilu (Tinospora cordifolia), Methi (Trigonella foenum
graecum), etc.

Abstract In the present work, Asparagus racemosus (AR) root powder was incorporated into sapote juice (Race sapote juice) at various concentrations, namely, control, S1, S2, S3,
S4, S5 and S6 respectively. Sensory analysis was carried out for these samples.
Phytochemical analysis of A. racemosus revealed the presence of steroids, tannins, carbohydrates, alkaloids, cardiac glycosides and flavanoids. Nutritional analysis of Race
sapote juice was carried out, such as protein carbohydrates, tannins Phenol, flavanoids, iron, vitamin and acidity. All samples showed higher activity than the control. In
organoleptic evaluation, the highest mean score was recorded in all samples ranging
from 7 to 8, except the samples S5 and S6 showed the score point ranging from 5 to 6 whereas in control it was recorded as 8. Taste, flavor and overall acceptability for S1:S5
and S2:S6 values were not accepted at 5% level. For S2:S5, the value for flavor was not significant at 5% level. Taste and flavor values of S3:S5 were not significant at 5% level.
All other samples were accepted at 5% level.
