“…Gulhane H et al (14) after analyzing different results on GA in various research articles observed that GA and its mixture was a multidimensional drug. It has been mentioned in the Ayurveda that FGA of indigenous cow is the most potent to be used as a drug.…”

Cow is worshiped in India as “Gomata” since ancient time. Its values have been signified in Vedas, Puranas & Ayurveda. Its urine/Go Ark is used in rituals & medicines traditionally in India. The Significance of Cow Urine has been studied by many workers. Now it is available in the market as distillate. Hence this study was designed to assess the potential of Fresh Go Ark (FGA) and Distillate Go Ark (DGA) on Human Peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBL) in Vitro using MTT Assay. It was found that FGA & DGA both had the potential to enhance the cell viability of Human PBL. FGA showed greater potential towards the enhancement of cell viability on Human PBL than that of DGA. However the difference between the impacts of FGA & DGA was not found to be significant when tested through Two way ANOVA.

“…Total organic carbon (TOC) of the mixtures was in the ranges of 245.5-359.0 mg g -1 dried sample and the order was T 0 >T 5 >T 4 >T 3 >T 2 >T 1 (Table 4). As cow urine is rich in minerals [17], TOC values were decreased with the increase in urine concentration in the mixtures.…”

Cow Urine for Enhancement of Biogas Production and Fertilizer Quality of Biogas Slurry

et al. 2020

To explore the potency of cow urine on biogas production and fertilizer quality of the biogas slurries, six experimental trials, T0 (50% CD:50% Water) as control, T1 (10% CD:90% CU), T2 (20% CD:80% CU), T3 (30% CD:70% CU), T4 (40% CD:60% CU) and T5 (50% CD:50% CU) were constructed by mixing cow dung (CD) and cow urine (CU). Cumulative gas volume was estimated for 30 days and the physicochemical properties of the slurries were evaluated. The cumulative gas volume of three trials (T3, T4 and T5) was higher than control (T0) and T5 showed maximum (28% over the control). Moreover, all of the trials except one (T1) showed higher gas yield than control (T0) of which maximum conversion of volatile solid (VS) to gas was obtained in T3. pH of the amended samples were above 7.0 (pH 7.00-7.42). Conductivity of the samples also increases (1.94-13.40 mS cm-1) with the increase in cow urine percentage. With respect to macronutrient (N, P, K) cow urine amended samples can be considered superior to the control one. Moreover, C/N ratio of all the amended samples were below 15 (4.7-14.0) and thus these are suitable for agronomic uses.

“…Cow dung is abundantly available in India. Using cow dung as a bio-resource in wastewater treatment plants is safe and environmentally friendly because cow dung and cow urine are used to treat several human diseases in Indian herbal and natural treatment systems [39][40][41]. Activated sludge from the final settling tank has to take to feed the aeration tank.…”

Catalytic Performance of Cow-Dung Sludge in Water Treatment Mitigation and Conversion of Ammonia Nitrogen into Nitrate

2022

The present research study was performed to find a solution for the mitigation of ammonia nitrogen in municipally treated sewage effluent (MTSE) using two natural bio-resources. One was composted cow-dung sludge that had catalytic enzymes and nitrifying bacterial mass, and the second was Yucca extract (a desert plant). MTSE samples put in one-liter beakers/ jars having initial ammonia nitrogen content of 34.78 mg/L, when treated with 0.0 g/L (control Sample), 1 g/L, 5 g/L (cow dung) and 10 mg/L, 50 mg/L (Yucca extract), respectively, reported depletion of ammonia nitrogen to about 0.00 mg/L ammonia (NH3) as N. It (NH3) transformed to 17.8, 0.18, 0.09, 18.65, and 18.85 mg/L nitrite asN. Ammonia converted to 21.8, 110.1, 133.5, 20.5, 20.8 mg/L nitrate asNO3, respectively. After eight days of treatment, the jar test apparatus reported the results at 35 rounds per minute (RPM) and a temperature of 32°C. It was found that digested cowdung acted catalytically in eliminating the ammonia nitrogen by converting it to nitrate in a short period of nearly eight days, leading to almost 100% ammonia conversion.
