About us
We introduce ourselves as the manufacturers of Ayurvedic products. The company is established to extract the goodness of natural herbs and offers Natural Solutions to Pharmaceuticals.
40 years back Mr. Vasudeo Shivram Kolhatkar while working on natural herbs in his own laboratory discovered an emulsion which he found was very useful for various diseases. Inspired by this, he formed a company named Ayurved Sumshodhanalaya (ASUM) meaning the place where the studies on Ayurveda are carried out. On this base Mr. S.V. Kolhatkar and Mr. V.V.Kolhatkar present directors of our company built up a strong organisation with a goal to bring the highest quality products to market, in the most efficient and cost effective way.
The registered office is situated at 1379, Shukrawar Peth, Natubag, Pune 411002, Maharashtra, India.
Research & Development
No company in this fast growing world can survive without research. The fact has been well understood by us & thus we always work to give the best product. Although it is well known that Ayurvedic products are free of side effects it is necessary to prove it. For this the toxicological studies on Kailas Jeevan have been undertaken. The study was designed & conducted to determine the acute toxicity of Kailas Jeevan by observing following parameters -
a) Acute oral toxicity to Swiss Albino mice
b) Skin irritation potential in New Zealand White rabbits
c) Mucous membrane irritation potential in New Zealand White rabbits.
Kailas Jeevan at the dose of 5000 mg/kg, the maximum practical dosage, did not induce any abnormal signs and did not affect the normal pattern of body weight gain in treated mice. Median lethal dose of Kailas Jeevan by oral route in Swiss Albino mice was found to be more than 5000 mg/kg. It may be noted here that extrapolation of the results of an acute oral toxicity study on rodents to humans is reasonably good for single oral doses. Following a patch test in rabbit (Draize, 1959) to assess the dermal irritancy potential, Kailas Jeevan was found to be non-irritating to both the intact and abraded skin of the albino rabbits. Kailas Jeevan did not produce any irritant effect on cornea, iris or conjunctivae of washed and unwashed eyes of albino rabbits, when applied as a single instillation following the method of Draize (1959).
Kailas Jeevan was thus classified as non-irritating to eyes and associated mucous membrane in rabbit. Although extrapolation of the results of skin & mucous membrane irritation studies in animals to man is valid to a limited degree, it must be noted that albino rabbit is more sensitive than man to ocular irritants or corrosives in most cases. All these efforts of the company are supported by the doctors who always work on the patients in our well equipped dispensaries. The team is leaded by the Dr. Mrs Shubhada Velankar a well known Ayurvedic consultant having more than 30 years of experience in this field. At another dispensary it is leaded by Dr. Smt. P. M. Kolhatkar having more than 25 years of experience in this field. Clinical trials are done in these dispensaries if required by the company. Help of other well known hospitals is also taken for conducting clinical trials.
