Abstract
Choorna of several varieties of a single or more herbs is the choice of almost all Ayurvedic physicians. The method of preparation of Choorna is the discretion of physician or pharmacists. A standard method is not formulated till today for the preparation of Choorna. We propose a plan of study for standardization in preparation of Choorna. For the same purpose Atibala is preferred because the shrub is easily available in our area. All parts of it are to be studied for choorna. It grows full in less than three months time, it is flowering throughout the year. In this study albino rat is preferred for experiments
