The gas chromatography–mass spectrometry analysis study of one Ayurvedic medicine, Madhukasavam.

The present study aims at knowing the presence of biomolecules present in one Ayurvedic medicine, Madhukasavam, by gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC–MS) analysis. Materials and Methods: Madhukasavam was procured from a standard Ayurvedic medicine vendor ant Chennai and was subjected to GC–MS analysis by standard procedure. Results: Important biomolecules such as phenyl-beta-D-glucoside, eucalyptol.,alpha-methyl 4-O-methyl-D-mannoside, pentanoic acid, 2-ethylhexyl ester, phenylethyl alcohol, L-alpha-terpineol, 2-furanethanol., beta-ethoxy-, Quinolin-2-ol, 6-methoxy-4-methyl-, 3-(3,3-Dimethyloxiran-2-yl)-2,2-dimethylpropionic acid, ethyl ester, decane, 5-ethyl-5-methyl-, (1Ar-(1aalpha,4abeta,8as(*)))-4a,8,8-trimethyloctahydrobenzo(c)cyclopropa(d)pyran-2,4-dione, n-hexadecanoic acid, trans-geranylgeraniol, and N,N-dimethyl-4-nitroso-3-(trimethylsilyl)aniline were shown in the GC–MS profile, which have far-reaching medicinal roles. Conclusion: This is evident that the molecules do represent the medicinal role of Madhukasavam as a digestive formulation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
