Abstract
Standard is a numerical value which quantifies the parameter and thus denotes the
purity of the material. Standardization of Ayurvedic drugs is a need of the hour in this changing
Global scenario. In Ayurvedic texts the parameters given are mostly subjective. For this reason
some objective parameters should be established through exhaustive pharmaceutical study and
Analytical study. A drug selected for present study is Hinguliya Manikyarasa and some
objective parameters like measurement of temperature, the yield of finished product were
studied. Physical ,Chemical analysis along with the toxicological study were carried out. The
findings will be helpful to establish objective parameters for Standardization of Hinguliya
Manikyarasa and toxicological study will be helpful to establish its safety profile. This study
will provide guidelines to establish such type of standards to other Herbomineral formulations,
so that the manufacturer can give best quality Ayurvedic products to our society and to the
people all over the world.
