Abstract

Standardization is a pre-requisite in quality control of Unani drugs both single as well as compound formulation as the efficacy of the drugs mainly depends upon their physico-chemical properties. Therefore, the determination of physico-chemical characters for the authenticity of a drug is a need of the hour before studying it for pharmacological activity. Marham Zangar is a topical Unani pharmacopoeial compound formulation for wound healing, especially of non-healing. There is no Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) is available in Unani pharmaceutics. Hence, Marham Zangar was selected to standardized it with Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs).

Keywords: Standardization, Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs), Marham Zangar, Unani wound healing formulation.
