Resumen

Marutham Pattai Kudineer is a traditional Siddha herbal formulation. To evaluate the functional groups present in Marutham Pattai Kudineer using Fourier Transform Infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy. The formulation was prepared according to Siddha literature and subjected to FT-IR spectral analysis to identify functional groups based on characteristic absorption peaks. The FT-IR spectrum revealed very weak or negligible peaks corresponding to O–H/N–H, C–H, and C=O/C=C functional groups, with minor absorptions in the fingerprint region indicating trace phytoconstituents. The spectral profile indicates low detectable phytochemical content.
