Comparative Evaluation of Triphala Extract Prepared Using Two Methods

In view of the wide usage Triphala for large number therapeutic indications, ethno medicinal practice extract preparation viz. extracting three plants together (sample A) and mixing extracts prepared separately B), were compared. Both test samples analyzed with respect to their physicochemical, phytochemical pharmacological profiles. case physicochemical properties, ash values moisture content both comparable. Sample A showed less acidic nature high water soluble extractive (96.15±1.7) value which was statistically significant (p<0.05). Phytochemical estimation gallic acid ellagic by high-performance thin-layer chromatography higher in sample B (-97.7 ng/μg) (-49.2 respectively. Pharmacological activity comparable total phenol content, antioxidant free radical scavenging activity. Although inhibited activities acetylcholine esterase lipase a concentration dependent manner; better Usually, multi-plant proven more superior over single plant extracts. our study 3 profile than togethers.
