The anti-ulcer activities along with chemical identification of purified Shankha Bhasma (SBM) or calcined conch-shell was undertaken. Shankha Bhasma (SBM) was prepared by traditional process used in India. The chemical composition of SBM was studied by atomic absorption spectrometry and infra-red spectral analysis.
