Abstract:Amla (Phyllanthus emblica) is an edible and medicinal plant used in Culinary, Ayurveda, Unani, Siddha, and naturopathic medicine. The objective of the present work was to enhance amla’s inherent characteristics by applying the safe 2–6 µm mid-infrared rays. A water-based 2–6µm mid-infrared radiation generating atomizer (MIRGA) was recently invented by us and used in this research. A sensory panel assessed Amla before and after the application of mid-IR. Also, FTIR, PXRD, TEM, and H1NMR were used to further cha… Show more
