DEVELOPMENT AND VALIDATION OF STABILITY INDICATING HPTLC METHOD FOR ESTIMATION OF DARUNAVIR
A simple, precise, and sensitive stability-indicating high-performance thin layer chromatographic (HPTLC) method has been developed and validated for the analysis of Darunavir in bulk and in the tablet dosage form. The separation was performed on pre-coated silica gel 60 GF254 plates using Toluene: Methanol: Triethylamine (8.5:1:0.5 v/v/v) as the mobile phase. The retention factor (Rf) was found t...

ANTIMICROBIAL PROTEINS/PEPTIDES ISOLATED FROM TWO CULTIVARS OF BOUGAINVILLEA
The rapid increase in multi-drug resistance (MDR) infections present a challenge in the development of therapies against them. Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) can be the answer to this challenge. AMPs play an important role in host defense mechanisms. Plants are the precious source of natural antimicrobial molecules, including antimicrobial peptides known as Plant Antimicrobial Peptides (PAMPs). The...

ASSESSMENT OF MICROBIOLOGICAL QUALITY AND ORGANOLEPTIC CHANGE ON STORAGE DURATION OF STANDARDIZED COOKIES PREPARED BY BLEND OF LOTUS STEM POWDER WITH REFINED WHEAT FLOUR FOR DETERMINATION OF ITS SHELF LIFE
Incorporating the under-consumed super food ingredients rich in nutrients or functional compounds is a growing concern in healthcare product formulation. Health-ensuring cookies blend with Nelumbonucifera (Lotus) stem powder were standardized in the laboratory and found its acceptable form with comparatively higher acceptability and good flavour profile. Safety assurance is also a part of product ...

MOLECULAR DOCKING ANALYSIS OF PLANT PHYTOCOMPOUNDS AS PROMISING INHIBITORS AGAINST LASB VIRULENCE PROTEIN – AN IN-SILICO AND IN-VITRO APPROACH
Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a Gram-negative pathogenic bacterium that can cause a variety of hospital-acquired diseases. It is a multidrug-resistant bacterium and can survive a wide range of antibiotics; hence there is a concern about its limited therapy options. In this scenario, the discovery and development of novel antibiotics are in high demand. In our research work, molecular docking a Bioinfo...

FUNGAL INFECTION CAUSES HISTOPATHOLOGICAL ALTERATIONS IN GILL AND PANCREAS OF CHANNA STRIATUS
Histomorphological changes were observed to assess the effect of fungus on gill and pancreas of Channa striatus. The most frequent histological changes detected in the gills included hypertrophy, hyperplasia and fusion of secondary lamellae. Other lesions found were vacuolization and blood congestion in Pancreas. The colonization of aquatic fungi in teleost fish is a severe problem affecting both ...
