METHOD DEVELOPMENT AND VALIDATION OF KETOROLAC TROMETHAMINE IN TABLET FORMULATION BY RP-HPLC METHOD
In the present study, a simple, precise, and accurate method was developed and validated for analysis of Ketorolac Tromethamine in Tablet formulation. A gradient HPLC analysis was performed on Grace C18 column (250 cm × 4.6 mm × 5 µ). The compound was separated with a solvent mixture of Methanol and water in a ratio of 65:35 v/v with 0.1% O-phosphoric acid as the mobile phase at a flow rate of ...

DEVELOPMENT AND OPTIMIZATION OF EFFERVESCENT TABLETS OF PROMETHAZINE
The objective of present study was to develop effervescent tablets of promethazine (PMZ) for the treatment of emesis. Effervescent tablets were prepared by direct compression method and were optimized using 32 full factorial design. Amount to sodium starch glycolate(X1) and amount of sodium bicarbonate (X2) were selected as independent variables, whereas disintegration time (Y1), amount of carbon ...

IMPACT OF DIFFERENT CARBON SUPPLEMENT ON EXTRACTION OF C-PHYCOCYANIN (C-PC) FOLLOWED BY POLY-β-HYDROXYBUTYRATE (PHB) FROM NOSTOC MUSCORUM
The extraction of poly-β-hydroxybutyrate (PHB) and C-phycocyanin (C-PC) from Nostoc muscorum revealed that PHB yield after C-PC extraction was not found differ significantly as without C-PC extraction. Under photoautotrophic growth condition, the test cyanobacterium accumulates PHB and C-PC with a maximum yield of 40 and 57 mg l-1 respectively at the stationary phase, i.e. on day 21 of incubation...
