SYNTHESIS, CHARACTERIZATION AND BIOLOGICAL EVALUATION OF NOVEL IMIDAZO THIAZOLE CHALCONES AS ANTIOXIDANT AGENT
A series of condensed Imidazo [2, 1-b] [1,3] thiazole Chalcones have been synthesized by Claisen–Schmidt condensation reaction. Imidazo thiazole Chalcones are associated with immense biological activities. Novel Imidazo thiazole-based chalcones were synthesized using Imidazo thiazole-3-carboxaldehydes and various acetyl ketones in PEG-400. The structures of the compounds were characterized by I...

CHARACTERISATION OF METHICILLIN RESISTANT STAPHYLOCOCCUS AUREUS ISOLATES FROM SHINGLES PATIENTS
Even after treating Shingles patients with antiviral drugs, they are found to suffer from secondary bacterial infections. With this background as a guide, we undertook an investigation to isolate the bacterial pathogens from the pus of Shingles patients. Among the isolates obtained during the one year study period, Staphylococcus aureus sp. was found to be multi drug resistant and hence it was cho...

MOLECULAR DOCKING, PHARMACOPHORE MODELLING AND 3D QSAR ANALYSIS OF NOVEL CHALCONE DERIVATIVES
Chalcone based structures have many interesting biological properties like anti-malarial, anticancer, antiviral, antibacterial, antifungal, anti-hyperglycaemic and photo-cytotoxicity activities. In this study, the novel chalcone derivatives (1a-1l) have been synthesized and investigated for antimicrobial activities. The MIC results of antimicrobial activities reveal that one of the chalcone deriva...

SELF-EMULSIFYING SYSTEMS: A REVIEW
Effective delivery of drugs can be made through various routes of administration, and the oral route is considered to be the most convenient for the administration of drugs to patients. Poor aqueous solubility was acknowledged as the main reason for the poor oral absorption of chemical entities. Apart from the conventional solubilization approaches like co-solvency, salt formation, solid dispersio...

MORPHOLOGICAL CHANGES IN HUMAN RBCs DUE TO EXPOSURE TO SELECTED MEDICINAL PLANT LEAF EXTRACTS IN-VITRO
The aim of this experiment was to find out the in-vitro effects of the extracts of certain plants, considered to have medicinal value, on the erythrocyte model. The plants, selected for the study, were Tulsi (Ocimum tenuiflorum), Neem (Azadirachta indica) and Amla (Phyllanthus emblica).Three different concentrations of leaf extracts were prepared using tris-HCl, namely 0.3 mg/ml, 0.15 mg/ml and 0....

TRITERPENE ACIDS FROM n-HEHANE EXTRACT 0F ALBIZZIA LEBBECK BENTH.
Two triterpine acids like 2α, 19α- dihydroxy – 3-oxo-12- ursen- 28-oic acid (1), 2α, 16α, 19α- trihydroxy – 3-oxo-12- ursen- 28-oic acid (2) were isolated from the n-hexane soluble fractions of a methanol extract of the root of Albizzia lebbeck Benth. The structures of the isolated compounds were elucidated as by extensive spectroscopic studies, including high field NMR analyses. This i...

EFFECTS OF NON-CALORIC ARTIFICIAL SWEETENERS (NAS) ON GLYCAEMIC STATUS IN MALE SWISS ALBINO MICE
Objective: The objective of the study was to estimate the effects of Non-caloric Artificial Sweeteners (NAS) on glycaemic status in male Swiss albino mice. Methods: 36 male Swiss albino mice were selected and divided into six groups of 6 animals each. Group 1 served as control and received a normal pellet diet with drinking water. Groups 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 received normal pellet diet and drinking wa...
