The present study deals with GC MS analysis of one siddha medicine formulation KIZHANELLI THYLAM which is prescribed for pitha related diseases such as kirukiruppu(giddiness),vayil neerural(excessive salivation),kai kal erichal(peripheral neuritis),kannerichal(burning eyes) and pitha paithiyam(psychiatric diseases).It is used as external bath oil. KIZHANELLI THYLAM prepared as per siddha literature Patharthaguna villakkam (Meteria Medica).KIZHANELLI THYLAM underwent standard procedure of GC MS analysis.GCMS analysis revealed the presence of 14 preliminary chemical components present in kizhanelli thylam.These components are D-Limonene, Ocimene, 3-Carene, Cyclohexonal,5-methyl-2-(1-methylethenyl), Cyclohexane,1-ethenyl-1-methyl-2,4-bis(1-methylethenyl)-, Caryophyllene, Azulene,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8-octahydro-1,4-dimethyl-7-(1-methylethylidene)-(1s-cis) and Caryophyllene oxide.The relationship between the claimed medicinal roles and the presence of biomolecules, as indicated by GC MS seems encouraging.
