Abstract

Introduction: Purified (perchloride of mercury) veeram, plays a vital role in combination of medicines treating cancers, vatha diseases, skin diseases, and venereal diseases. Purification of veeram by Jatropha curcas (kattamannaku) showed the efficacy of the drug by eliminating the toxic metals mercury when compared to other purification method. Objective: To estimate the chemical compounds present in the veeram before and after purification. Methodology: Veeram was purified by the process called surukku, with kattamanaku milk (Jatropha curcas). Results: This analysis will help us to estimate the heavy metals present in the compound after purification process. Conclusion: The aim of the study is to showcase the effective purification, in terms of eliminating the heavy metals to below detection limit and also to minimize the toxicity of the drug and enhance the potency of the drug.
