Chlorophytum borivilianum (Safed Musli) : Nature’s Wonder Gift
Full text linkChlorophytum Borivilianum is also known as Safed Musli that belongs to the Liliaceae family. In recent years, this plant has gained much popularity due to its economic value. Safed Musli is known for its roots and saponins components that are associated with various medicinal properties. This plant is used in Indian medicinal system since the 11th century AD. In Ayurveda, Safed Musli is categorized as a \u27Vajikaran Rasayan\u27 and used to treat various diseases such as leucorrhea, gonorrhoea, impotence, infertility, diarrhoea and dysentery. It is considered a "Divya Aushad" or white gold and used as a health-promoting drug or tonic in the ayurvedic medicinal system. Safed Musli is used as an alternative to "Viagra". Some reported therapeutic and pharmacological properties of Safed Musli include aphrodisiac, immunomodulatory, antimutagenic, antidiabetic, antioxidant, antiulcer, adaptogenic, and antimicrobial. In folklore culture, this plant is used in the form of \u27Laddoos\u27 as a diet for mothers after delivery. Due to its high economic value, the Indian Medicinal Board has started promoting this plant\u27s cultivation and production as the demand for this plant has been increased in the national and international markets globally. However, the plant needs to be conserved as this plant has been listed as a critically endangered species as per the Red data book of Indian plants. The factors responsible for the species deterioration are irrational cutting, overharvesting, insufficient knowledge and others. In this review article, the pharmacological properties, phytochemistry, ayurvedic and folk uses of Safed Musli are briefly summarized

A Review of the Therapeutic Effect of Musli in (Chlorophytum Borivilianum) Sukra Alpata which Correlates to Oligospermia
Full text linkMale infertility is one of today\u27s most pressing issues, and the prevalence of this condition is rising owing to a change in lifestyle. Low sperm count denotes a lower-than-normal sperm count in the semen you produce during orgasm. Oligospermia is another name for low sperm counts. A zero sperm count is referred to as azoospermia. Oligozoospermia is a disorder associated with male infertility that is characterized by a low sperm count. Ayurveda, the Indian medical system\u27s science, defined several terminologies linked to male infertility, including Kshina shukra, Alpa Retasa, and Shukra dosha, which are similar to disorders connected with oligozoospermia. Ayurveda also described several medications for treating oligozoospermia. Musli is the most widely used remedy for oligospermia. Musli is one of the well-known medications described in Ayurvedic texts. Musli has exceptional aphrodisiac and revitalizing qualities. It is beneficial to overall health development. In Ayurveda, musli is also known as Talamuli, Suvaha, Talamulika, Deerghakandika, and Talapatri. It is a Rasayana medication that is useful in Ayurvedic Materia Medica for vigor and vitality. Sweta Musli\u27s therapeutic value has long been praised and supported due to its aphrodisiac properties. Samhita Sweta Musli and Krishna Musli are the two main varieties of Musli. It works to treat impotence, and infertility, increase male potency, and has immune-modulating and adaptogenic qualities

Kinetics of Thin Layer Drying of Safed Musli (Chlorophytum borivilianum) Roots
No full textThe present research focused on the medicinal plant Safed Musli (Chlorophytum borivilianum), which is commonly used in traditional Indian medicine. The powdered roots of this plant are frequently incorporated into pharmaceutical formulations. The primary objective of this study was to analyse the drying behaviour of Safed Musli roots using empirical modelling. Specifically, the roots were dried at three distinct temperatures (45, 50, and 55 °C) until they attained equilibrium moisture content. The initial root moisture content was 313.21% (d.b.). Six empirical models for drying were tested using the moisture ratios derived from the moisture loss data. The models were assessed based on the coefficient of determination (R2) and root mean square error (RMSE). The Page model emerged as the best-fitting model, with R2 values ranging from 0.9913 to 0.9961 at all three drying temperatures. The effective diffusivity of Safed Musli roots varied from 2.234×10-9 to 5.214×10-9 m2.s-1, with higher values observed at higher drying temperatures. This study offers valuable insights for engineers who design drying equipment and processes for Safed Musli roots, thereby enhancing the efficiency and quality of the drying process
MuSLi: A multi sensor LiDAR detection for C-V2X networks
No full textObstacle detection is a tool adopted in vehicular safety applications, aiming to detect a moving obstacle in an area of interest with the highest accuracy. Different sensors are used for this aim, such as LiDAR devices mounted on board of a vehicle that capture images of the surrounding environment. Extending the number of LiDAR sensors can be useful to improve the obstacle detection accuracy, since multiple images are captured from different distances and directions, and this represents an interesting approach, specially in case of dense networks with cooperative nodes. In this paper we present MuSLi technique, aiming to (i) provide an accurate obstacle detection and (ii) forward alert messages to other cars in the network, in case of correct detection of a pedestrian crossing the street. MuSLi relies on the connected content islands scenario, where each vehicle defined as a content island subscribes to a service in order to receive and share published messages. Specifically, the road safety service allows the detection of an obstacle through multiple LiDAR sensors from neighboring cars. Furthermore, we investigate the fastest transmission mode among those defined in the C-V2X releases to alert the presence of a pedestrian to the other approaching cars. The proposed technique provides the distances by the crossroad in which is better to use V2V, V2I or V2N according to the environment, the scheduling technique and the measured interference

Evaluation of Ayurvedic compound formulations 4- <i style="mso-bidi-font-style:normal">Musli Cũrna</i>
No full text680-684Quality medications of any system of
medicine are obtained only as a result of using standardized protocols and
monitoring the quality of the products. Thus, there is an urgent need to
develop reliable parameters for quality control which are cost effective and
can be easily adopted by the manufacturers. In the Ayurvedic system of
medicine, Musli Cũrna is a herbal compound formulation used as an aphrodisiac and for impotency.
In the present communication, attempts have been made to evaluate Musli
Cũrna. Four samples of Musli Cũrna procured from different Ayurvedic
pharmacies were subjected to physicochemical analysis, HPTLC fingerprinting and
botanical characterization, and compared using authentic ingredients as
reference. The studies suggest that these parameters may, together, be used for
quality evaluation and standardization of compound formulations and maintaining
their quality, purity and efficacy
Effect of Biofertilizer Azolla on the Medicinal Plant Safed Musli
No full text281-282Safed musli (Chlorophytum tubrosum)
is an annual herb of Liliaceae family. Its stem is underground which bears leaves.
Leaves make a cover around the aerial part of the stem. Lower part of the underground
stem bears tuberous roots of brown colour, which become swollen due to deposition
of food. A root of this plant are used for nervous disorder, debility and as a tonic
and chewing of its roots gives relief in throat and oral diseases.Polysaccharides
and galacto glucose are obtained from its fruits. The powder of its tuberous root
is used to control fever. In the line of separate beds 0 (control), 5, 100 and
200 g of Azolla biofertilizer were mixed in the soil. In this Chlorophytum tubrosum
was transplanted 30 cm apart. After 6 months when the roots colour became brown,
tubers were detached and kept for chemical analysis. 10% more yield of dried roots
was obtained with the treatment of 200 g Azolla when compared with control
treatment. Shape of the tubers was also more flashy with the same treatment. Weight
of the tuber with 200 g Azolla was found 5% more when compared with control.
Therefore it is concluded that Azolla biofertilizer may be used for the better yield
of Safed Musli
