Method of preparation
- Take the raw materials of pharmacopoeial quality.
- Wash, dry and powder the ingredient number 1 of the Formulation Composition and pass through the 355 µm I. S. sieve (sieve number 44) to obtain coarse powder.
- Place 100 g of Parpaṭa powder in a round bottom standard joint flask of 3.0 l capacity. Add 3.0 1 of Jala.
- Attach the proper distillation assembly with distillation and receiving heads, double surface condenser and receiving flask and enough circulating water to condense the distillate i.e. Arka.
- Place the flask on a heating mantle. Adjust the temperature control when boiling starts and continue the distillation to collect about 2.0 l of Arka.
- Store in containers and pack them air-tight to protect from light and moisture.[1]
Description
- Parpaṭa Arka is a slightly turbid light yellow liquid with a sweet odour.
