Abstract
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. Acute oral toxicity of SBM was done in Swiss mice. SBM (25 mg/kg and 50 mg/kg) was studied for anti-ulcer effect on ethanol induced and pylorus ligature induced model in Wistar rats. SBM showed significant (P
