UNEARTHING THE PRODIGY OF AGELE MARMELOS C. : STUDY ON COPPER-COMPLEXES OF CIPROFLOXACIN

Aegle marmelos C. (Fam. Citraceae), traditionally used as ethano-botanical drug, containing Fluoroquinolone which reacts with copper when kept over-night in water in copper container which is used as anti-bacterial, immunity booster crude drug. The studies exhibit that it improves digestion as it is affecting gastro-intestinal parasite. It was stated that the copper in any liquid is useful up to 2ppm and may be harmful if it is more than 3ppm. When analysed with Atomic Spectroscopy (AS), it was observed that the solution prepared contains 1.7ppm which is helping to improve gastro-intestinal problems. This formulation has helped many cancer patients, when surveyed. Further research is in progress.
