Repeatability:
Repeatability study of Raw material and Extract were carried out
by preparing and analyzing same sample at three different times. The limit of % RSD
should be in the range of ≤9%.

Conclusion:
The %RSD is in the range of 1.78 & 1.47 respectively for Raw material &
extract.

Stability of the extract:
Stability study of the Salacia extract was conducted
both at real time (25° C±2° C and 60% RH±5% RH) and accelerated (40° C±2° C and
75% RH±5% RH). The extract is found to be stable confirming the ruggedness of the
methodology (Different day & Different analysis).
