ANTIOXIDANT ACTIVITY OF TWO WILD TEUCRIUM SPECIES FROM MOROCCO
The aim of the present study was to investigate antioxidant activity, total polyphenols and total flavonoids contents of extracts from two Moroccan Teucrium species (Teucrium polium and Teucrium aurum). The Antioxidant activity was evaluated in-vitro by three assays namely, free radical scavenging activity against 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH), ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP) and t...

ANGIOGENESIS IN CARDIOVASCULAR DISEASE: A REVIEW
Angiogenesis is process of new blood vessel formation that occurs under both normal and pathological conditions. In the normal state, two distinct processes can be seen. One utilizes endothelial progenitor cells (EPC) and the second utilizes existing vasculature to generate new vessels. The healthy body controls angiogenesis through a series of "on" (angiogenesis-stimulating growth factors) and "o...

CHOLESTEROL ESTERASE ENZYME INHIBITORY AND ANTIOXIDANT ACTIVITIES OF LEAVES OF CAMELLIA SINENSIS (L.) KUNTZE. USING IN VITRO MODELS
The present study was to evaluate the in vitro cholesterol esterase enzyme inhibitory and in vitro antioxidant activity of the methanol extract of the leaves of Camellia sinensis (L.). Phytochemical screening of the extract shows the presence of flavonoids, phenolics and terpenoids. The extract shows ability to inhibit the enzyme with IC50 (82.46±0.74µg/ml) whereas that of standard, Orlistat (...

VALIDATED STABILITY INDICATING RP-HPLC METHOD FOR SIMULTANEOUS ESTIMATION OF DAUNORUBICIN AND CYTARABINE IN BULK AND ITS PHARMACEUTICAL DOSAGE FORM
This paper describes a new validated Reverse-Phase High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) method for the simultaneous determination of two anti-cancer drugs, Daunorubicin and Cytarabine (Ara-C). A simultaneous determination method saves cost and time as both drugs can be injected into a single HPLC system without the need to change or re-equilibrate with a new mobile phase. The objective of...
