ANALYTICAL METHOD DEVELOPMENT AND VALIDATION STUDIES FOR SIMULTANEOUS ESTIMATION OF LULICONAZOLE AND EUGENOL USING UV SPECTROSCOPY
A simple, precise yet novel UV spectrophotometric method has been developed for the simultaneous estimation of luliconazole and eugenol. Two methods, namely the simultaneous equation method and the absorbance ratio method were tried for simultaneous analysis. Since the simultaneous equation method gave the best recovery; the simultaneous method was developed for the estimation of both drugs. The w...

A STUDY ON EFFECT OF THERMAL SINTERING ON GASTRIC FLOATING TABLETS
The purpose of this study was to develop a gastroretentive controlled release drug delivery system using sintering for enhanced oral bioavailability using carnauba wax polymer. Formulations (CC1-CC3) were prepared by wet granulation method and then exposed to sintering temperature at different time intervals. The optimized formula showed zero-order drug release kinetics for the period of 12 h. The...

ABELMOSCHUS ESCULENTUS L. MITIGATES NAFLD PATHOLOGIC PHENOTYPES IN C57BL/6J MOUSE MODEL
Purpose: Lifestyle modification is recommended as a primary strategy for the management of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). Recently, metabolic regulations of diets containing parts of Abelmoschus esculentus (okra) were investigated using the NAFLD mouse model. Methods: Five groups of C57BL/6J mice (n = 6) were arranged. Each received a distinct d...
