almost black colour. Drug is usually obtained from cultivated plants and roots are collected in September
and October and cut into pieces of about 3 inches in length and dried. Some of the drug is utilized in India
for the production of volatile oil and remaining is exported. Generally pieces of thick roots and thin roots

strong. Taste is bitter.
Chemical constituents:
Saussurea contains volatile oil 1.5 to 2.5%. Volatile oil is preferably ontained by extraction with solvents like petroleum ether. Steam distillation causes emulsion and yield of volatile oil is less. Volatile oil contains saussurine 0.005%, a nitrogenous base, and resin, about 18%, inulin potassium nitrate and sugars. Kushtin, a liquid having the formula C20H26O3 has been isolated. Volatile oil contains sesquiterpene lactones costuslactone, dihydrolactone and a dehdrolactone, costusic acid, sesquiterpene hydrocarbons aplotoxin, alpha and beta costene, phellandrene and camphene and terpene alcohol.
