ENHANCED ANTIMICROBIAL ACTIVITY OF PROBIOTICS THROUGH SELENIUM NANOPARTICLES ENRICHMENT AGAINST GASTROINTESTINAL PATHOGENS
The decrease in susceptibility towards commonly administered antibacterial agents is due to excessive use of antibiotics every now and then, due to which the resistance toward these antibiotics is developed in pathogens. To overcome the problem of resistance in pathogenic microbes, the study of incorporation of Selenium metal to probioticts supplement was carried out. Antimicrobial activity of ind...

DESIGN OF EXPERIMENT IN THE BIO-ANALYTICAL DETERMINATION OF QUETIAPINE FUMARATE IN HUMAN PLASMA BY A RP-HPLC METHOD
A new, simple, sensitive, accurate and precise RP-HPLC method was developed for the estimation of quetiapine fumarate in human plasma. Full factorial design was used for the optimization of an extraction method. The main effect of volume of deproteinating agent, speed of centrifugation, time of centrifugation and temperature of centrifugation was found to be significant at P<0.0001 on all the r...
