DESIGN, SYNTHESIS, MOLECULAR DOCKING AND EVALUATION OF ANTIMICROBIAL ACTIVITY OF 4- AMINO-N- [(4-OXO-2-(PHENYLAMINO)-4H-CHROMEN-3-YL) METHY-LENE]BENZENESULFONAMIDE AND THEIR DERIVATIVES
2-Anilino-3-formylchromones are obtained in high yield by rearrangement of differently substituted C-(4-oxo-4H[1]-benzopyran-3-yl)-N-phenylnitrones. These compounds undergo various facile nucleophilic substitution reactions leading to the synthesis of various pharmacologically active chromone based novel heterocyclic systems like sulphonamides. The C-2 and C-3 are the main positions in the chromon...

DESIGN AND OPTIMIZATION OF CAPECITABINE NIOSOMES DERIVED FROM PRONIOSOMES
The aim of this investigation was to design and optimize the Capecitabine niosomes derived from proniosomes using central composite design. Two independent variables viz., the molar ratio of drug to cholesterol (X1), surfactant loading (X2) and two dependent variables viz., the percentage drug entrapment (PDE) and mean volume diameter (MVD) were selected for the study. Proniosomes were prepared by...
