CHARACTERIZATION OF BIOLOGICALLY ACTIVE FRACTIONS OF METHANOL EXTRACT OF MATURE LEAVES OF POGOSTEMON BENGHALENSIS (BURM. F.) KUNTZE AND PERILLA FRUTESCENS (L.) BRITTON
The aim of the study was to determine the biologically active fractions of methanol extracts of mature leaves of Pogostemon benghalensis (burm. f.) Kuntze and Perilla frutescens L. Britton. The methanol extract was broadly fractionated sequentially in hexane, chloroform, acetone, ethyl acetate, and methanol. Activity index was recorded higher in methanol broad fractions of both of the plants. Broa...

QUANTITATIVE ESTIMATION OF MINERAL CONTENT FROM EDIBLE FLOWERS OF ALLIUM CEPA, CUCURBITA MAXIMA AND CARICA PAPAYA: A COMPARATIVE STUDY
Edible flowers have been an integral part of human nutrition for centuries, being used as garnishes of individual dishes and also consumed fresh. This study determines and compares the essential and trace mineral composition of the three edible flowers of Allium cepa (onion), Carica papaya (papaya) and Cucurbita maxima (pumpkin) with four other commonly consumed edible flowers. Also, a comparative...

NEW CO-PROCESSED EXCIPIENTS WITH MICROCRYSTALLINE CELLULOSE AND ISOMALT BY FLUID BED. AN OPTION FOR DIRECT COMPRESSION EXCIPIENTS
Objective: To elaborate and characterize new co-processed excipients for direct compression use. Methods: The new co-processed excipients were obtained with different proportions of microcrystalline cellulose (Avicel® PH101) and Isomalt (galenIQ® 800), using Starch® 1500 and Plasdone® K-25as binding agents in a fluid bed. Rheological characterization was performed; to determine their deformati...

RADIOLOGICAL AND GENE-EXPERT PATTERN: IN RELATION WITH TREATMENT OUTCOME OF SENSITIVE AND RESISTANT TUBERCULOSIS
Even if there are so many diagnostic tests available for the detection of tuberculosis, still the diagnosis of TB is a challenging problem in this decade due to differences or non-specificity in symptoms, radiological signs, false negatives, and positives. Chest X-ray can identify the location, area, and morphology of lesions; hence analyzed the pattern and relation of chest X-ray and Gene expert ...

FORMULATION AND EVALUATION OF SATRANIDAZOLE BY SELF EMULSIFYING DRUG DELIVERY SYSTEM
Background: Satranidazole is a class II drug per biopharmaceutical classification systems with poor aqueous solubility and antiprotozoal and anti-bacterial properties. Aim: Therefore, the purpose of the present study was to enhance the solubility of Satranidazole using a self-emulsified drug delivery system (SEDDS). Methods: SEDDS was prepared using Satranidazole (10 mg) and dissolved in the oil p...

ANTIMUTAGENIC ACTIVITY OF POMEGRANATE EXTRACT AND 2 – METHOXY-ESTRADIOL IN COMBINATION ON SWISS ALBINO MOUSE – MUS MUSCULAS
Pomegranate extracts (PGEs) exhibit antioxidative, antiproliferative, and antineoplastic activities. 2-Methoxyestradiol (2-ME), the end metabolite of 17β estradiol (E2), an antiangiogenic agent, inhibits tumor growth. Our earlier investigations demonstrated that aqueous PG extract (PGE) in combination with 2-ME showed antineoplastic effect on Sarcoma-180 tumor cells. The present paper has been or...
