Pharmaceutical Evaluation of Procedures for Preparation of Unani Formulation “Roghan Baiza-E-Murgh” and its Physicochemical Analysis

​        Mohd Nauman Saleem*, Mohammad Idris

Abstract:

Roghan baiza e murgh (RBM) is derived from the yolk of hen’s egg (Zardi-e-baiza-e-murgh). RBM was traditionally extracted from the yolks by a simple process of expression and through Patal Jantar. Modern methods of extraction include liquid - liquid extraction using common solvents such as petroleum ether. To check adulteration in RBM, there is a need to establish standards for this oil and also compare the differences in the standard RBM prepared by classical technique and modern method. The objective of this study was pharmaceutical evaluation of RBM prepared through classical method as well as through modern method and physicochemical analysis of the two products. A remarkable high yield percentage of RBM was noted in case of liquid-liquid extraction method as compared to the traditional method and some significant differences were also noted in organoleptic characteristics as well as in other chemical parameters while comparing the two products. There is a scope of pharmaceutical betterment for preparing RBM, which can be commercially exploited for a large scale production. The clinical aspect of the two products is yet to be examined and this should also be compared and evaluated. 

Keywords: Roghan baiza e murgh, Patal Jantar, oil extraction, Unanisis.​
