ABSTRACT
In today's era our youth suffering from many problems specially related to face like Abhiru, Neelika, Vyanga etc. because of hormonal imbalance, life style, junk foods etc. So a good medicine which is helpful for good complexion is a need of hour. The work choosen is Kanak tail and its emulsion form. Both delivery forms will be compared to find out which one form is more stable and of good quality. The reason behind the conversion of the taila form to emulsion, taila is having more unctuousness, so that no one wants to touch while applying. Its oiliness will cause discomfort. Apart from this reason, the emulsion form more easily absorbable than oil. There taila which will enhance the absorption property of emulsion. So the result will be effective to compare taila. Upon observing this side of view it is the need of hour to change our formulation. The present study aimed here is to standardize the Kanaka Taila Mukhakantikar pharmaceutically by preparing SMP (Standard Manufacturing Procedure) and analytically by analyzing on various available parameters. Certain standards or parameters are necessary for raw drugs, procedure and end products to provide quality assurance. For systematic study of standardization of Ayurvedic drugs and formulation, standardization in this context can be divided in to three steps. 1. Standardization of raw drugs- this includes the Herbal, mineral and animal origin drugs. 2. Standardization of process of procedures followed to prepare formulation – this includes the purification etc procedure to prepare a particular formulation. Standardization of finished products- this includes a quality of finished products. Drug delivery form of a medicine has highly impact on treatment of a disease. Hence in the present study Kanak Tail Mukhakantikar which has oily, greasy texture has been planned to convert in to a smoother and non greasy form of emulsion. An emulsion is a biphasic liquid systems which containing two immiscible liquids, one of which is dispersed as minute globule in to the other liquid. The liquid which is converted into minute globules is called the dispersed phase and the liquid in which the globule are dispersed is called the continuous phase. Generally, two immiscible liquids cannot be dispersed for a long time period. So, an emulsifying agent is added to the system. A film is formed around the globules by the emulsifying agent in order to scatter them indefinitely in the continuous phase, so that a stable emulsion is formed.
