EFFECT OF CURCUMIN SUPPLEMENTATION ON THE SUBMANDIBULAR SALIVARY GLANDS OF D-GALACTOSE INDUCED MALE MICE
Significant increase in the salivary gland lipid peroxidation, fluorescence product as well as accumulation of lipofuscin granules–age pigment was observed after injection of 5% D-galactose 0.5 ml daily for 30 days. Supplementations of turmeric extract (30mg/kg body weight) for 30 days during and after D-galactose treatment significantly reduced all the above parameters. Histochemical changes in...

SYNTHESIS, ANTI-VIRAL AND CYTOTOXICITY STUDIES OF SOME NOVEL N-SUBSTITUTED BENZIMIDAZOLE DERIVATIVES
A series of novel N-substituted benzimidazole derivatives were synthesized and screened anti-viral activity against a HIV -1 and -2 in MT-4 cells. New compounds were synthesized through modifying the N-1 hydrogen of benzimidazole moiety with the substitution of sulphanilamide, sulphadimidine, sulphamethoxazole, 2-aminopyridine, pthalamide, benzamide, nicotinamide, anthranilic acid and 2- marcapto-...

ANTIBACTERIAL ACTIVITIES OF OLD AND YOUNG LEAVES OF OLEA EUROPAEA (OLIVE TREE) OF ALJOUF REGION, SAUDI ARABIA
Antibacterial activities of different solvent extracts of young and old leaves has been evaluated against Pseudomonas aeureginosa (ATTCC10145) an opportunistic bacteria by Agar Well Diffusion Method. Extracts of olive leaves have been prepared by using standard extraction methods and DMS was used as vehicle for all the extracts. Amikacin was used as standard drug to which P. aeruginosa was found s...

FORMULATION DEVELOPMENT OF MICROSPONGE BASED DELAYED RELEASE DOSAGE FORM OF LANSOPRAZOLE
The aim of study is to develop microsponge based delayed release dosage form, technique used to manufacture microsponge was quasi emulsion diffusion technique. Eudragit L 100 and Eudragit S 100 polymer is used to incorporate lansoprazole in microsponge. Lansoprazole is acid labile drug hence release of lansoprazole was delayed from acid environment. Microsponge contains porous polymeric microspher...

SYNTHESIS AND CHARACTERIZATION OF PVA BASED SERICIN FILM FOR ANTIBACTERIAL WOUND DRESSING
Sericin is a globular protein obtained from degumming of silk cocoon in the silk reeling process. The sericin film was synthesized for the application of antibacterial wound dressing, but it has a low physical property, hence the synthetic polymer was used in the synthesis of highly stable biocompatible film. The PVA based sericin film was prepared by solvent casting method by the addition of synt...

IN-VITRO EVALUATION OF SHEA BUTTER-BASED NYSTATIN MICROPARTICLES
Nystatin, an antifungal drug for mucosal infections has a large dosing frequency and is rapidly inactivated by acids. In order to increase drug stability and reduce dosing frequency and reduce dosing frequency and gastric irritation, formulation into inert lipid matrices as solid lipid microparticles may be utilized. The formulations were done from Shea butter extract using either Tween 20 or Twee...

BIOEFFACY OF TWO TRADITIONAL BOTANICAL INSECTICIDES AGAINST HUMAN HEAD LICE
Two plants, Spilanthes acmella and Boenninghausenia albiflora used against the insect Pediculus humanus by the Gaddi tribals of Himachal Pradesh were presently tested for their insecticidal activity. The methanolic extracts of these plants were prepared from different parts of the plant collected in different months of the year since the active principle is known to vary in different parts of the ...

PROTEIN INTERACTION NETWORK AND DRUG DISCOVERY
Protein conformation and dynamics are influenced by various factors, including binding of ligands, their physico-chemical properties, etc. Every conformational change is dictated by an array of events, as making and breaking of bonds or change in interaction of protein residues. The three dimensional structure of protein molecules are widely investigated, based on small world network approaches, w...
