Opis

Baliospermum montanum Muell (Danti) root, which is sold in the name of "Danti mula" by drug dealers in the market is one of the most recommended drugs reported to be used as a purgative due to its oleo resin and starch contain. Medicinal plants like Danti (Baliospermum montanum Willd); root, Vacha (Acorus calamus Linn.); rhizome, Vriddhadaru (Argyreia speciosa Sweet.); seed, Hingu (Ferula foetida Bioss.); exudate, Kampillaka (Mallotus philippensis (Lamk.) Muell-Arg.); fruit and Guggulu (Commiphora mukul);gum resin etc. have not been categorized under poisonous drugs in API, still they have been recommended to pass through the specific shodhana (processing) process before internal administration. According to ayurvedic principle, drug act as a whole, they are more attached with synergistic approach due to the presence of various primary and secondary plant metabolites other than modern science reductionist approach. On the other hand, near-infrared spectroscopy (NIR) encompasses acquisition of a large number of absorbencies in a spectral region typically ranging from 1000 to 2500 nm, where organic matter has distinct spectral fingerprints related to functional groups.
