Medical Ayurvedic College, Kharghar, Navi Mumbai, Maharashtra, India. ABSTRACT Tankan which is among the Kshar traya mentioned in Kshar trik vidnyaniya trayodasha taranaga of Acharya Sadananda Sharma virachit Rasa tarangini. Tankan i.e., Borax (Na 2B 4O 7 10H 2O) is composed of boric acid & soda. It is a salt of tetra Boric acid, an important compound of Boron, which is also known as sodium biborate. Other Rasa Vaidyas also have included Tankan under the groups of Ksharatraya, Ksharapanchaka, Dravaka gana, Mitra panchaka etc. The present study was conducted to develop Tankanamruta malahar (pharmaceutically & to study its antimicrobial activity (In vitro). Tankanamruta malahar is a good combination of herbo-mineral preparation, which is indicated in Dushta vrana shodhan chikitsa or infected wounds. Though this formulation is from Ayurvedic classical text but there is a need to develop the standard procedure of preparation as they have faster & accurate results than oral administration of drug, so by the fusion of modern instruments & traditional methods of manufacturing procedures we have tried to make Tankanamruta malahar which contains Shuddha Tankan bhasma, Siktha taila, Sarji kshar, Shuddha pushpa kasis & Pipal twak kshar. Standardization describes all measures taken during manufacturing process like Shodhan, Maran, Kshar nirman & Siktha taila preparation etc & quality control leads to reproducible quality of particular product & in vitro study was performed to evaluate its antimicrobial activity against selected pathogens. KEYWORDS: Tankan, Tankanamruta malahar, Rasa tarangini, Borax, Dushta vrana. INTRODUCTION Ayurveda refers to the traditional health & healing system of India. Since the ancient time it was believed that Ayurvedic herbs & minerals are supposed to give a solution for all kinds of diseases which is even considered impossible by other field of medical science. Our ancient Acharyas were mainly involved in experimenting the different kinds of herbs & minerals then the preparation of Ayurvedic medicine from them. Tankanamruta malahar is also an important herbo - mineral formulation which is described in Acharya Sadananda Sharma virachit Rasa tarangini 13/96-99 for Dushta Vrana Chikitsa. [1] This formulation is the ideal combination of various methods described in Rasashastra & Bhaishajya Kalpana. For preparation of this Malahar, we have to perform Siktha taila preparation, Shodhan & Bhasmikaran of selected ingredients, Kshar nirman & finally Malahar kalpana. As allopathic drugs have more resistance to pathogens causing wound infections, Ayurveda is a science of medicine where there are so many pieces of pearl available to treat wound without any complication. Though Tankanamruta malahar is a textual reference there is a need to develop the standard procedure of preparation as they have faster & accurate results than allopathic drug without any complications. We have done this study in 2 parts & they are pharmaceutical development & standardization of Tankanamruta malahar & to assess its antimicrobial activity against Staphylococcus aureus (ATCC NO. 6538) which is Gram +ve bacteria & Pseudomonas aeruginosa (ATCC NO. 9025) which is Gram ve bacteria because they both are more resistant to the allopathic drugs. All the ingredients of this Malahar are having Vrana ropak, Shothaghna, Krimighna, Vishaghna, Kledak properties. Therefore, the current study is aimed to develop a safe, potent, effective & convenient to use formula with the longer shelf life & cost effective therapeutic strategy of Ayurveda for infected wounds in the form of Tankanamruta malahar.

Fig. 11 Anti-microbial activity This topical application may have minimum side effects as compared to the allopathic drugs. Tankanamruta malahar may have more active & potent herbo mineral ingredients because it is free from any added preservatives like allopathic drugs. IJAPR April 2018 Vol 6 Issue 4 9

As Tankanamruta malahar is indicated in Dushta vrana chikitsa (Infected wounds) [2], hence we have selected such 2 bacteria for this experimental study which are more resistant to allopathic antibiotics. As Ayurvedic topical applications have minimum side effects than allopathic, this Malahar kalpana is found to be more beneficial in terms of physico-chemical parameters& antimicrobial activity. Tankan is used in the process of repair that follows injury to the skin & other soft tissues [4-6]. The objective in wound management is to heal the wound in the shortest time possible, with minimal pain, discomfort, & scarring to the patient. All the ingredients of Tankanamruta malahar have Vrana ropaka, Shothaghna, Krimighna, Kandughna, vishaghna, Kledaka properties hence, all these collectively will provide more benefits to the wound healing process. As anti-bacterial activity of Tankanamruta malahar is proved from this study pre clinically against Staphylococcus aureus (Gram +ve) & Pseudomonas aeruginosa (Gram ve), now there is a need to design a clinical trial to check its efficacy on different kinds of wound infections & to assess its wound healing action on human volunteers or by in vivo study. Finally we can conclude that Ayurvedic management gives equally or more superiorly satisfactory results than allopathic drugs in terms of potency, shelf life, cost efficacy & action etc. Still there are so many potent herbo-mineral formulations are there described by our ancient Acharyas which requires to be standardized & to bring it in daily practice. This study is an attempt to bring one of Int. J. Ayur. Pharma Research, 2018;6(4):1-10 them in front of the people from ancient texts to daily routine practice. REFERENCES 1.
