Use of Mercury
Take equal parts of mercury and lead and make them up into a collyrium with their equal weight of stibium and camphor.[1] [This is perhaps the only instance in which the mention of mercury is found.]
- ↑ "Uttarasthánam," Ch. XIII, 36. This very formula, with but slight variations, occurs also in Rasaratnasamuchchaya, Ch. xxiii, 46.
