POTENTIAL HERBAL HEPATOPROTECTIVE PLANTS: AN OVERVIEW
Hepatic diseases (Liver diseases) are a major worldwide health problem, with high endemicity in developing countries. Hepatic disease is a term for a collection of conditions, diseases, and infections that affect the cells, tissues structures, or functions of the liver. Liver has a wide range of functions, including detoxification, protein synthesis, and production of biochemical necessary for dig...

DEVELOPMENT AND CHARACTERIZATION OF POLY (ε-CAPROLACTONE) MICROSPHERES CONTAINING ACETAZOLAMIDE
The aim of this study was to prepare and evaluate poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL) microspheres containing acetazolamide. Microspheres were prepared by solvent evaporation method. The influence of formulation factors (polymer: drug ratio, aqueous: oil phase ratio, concentration of aqueous phase, stirring speed and stirring time) on morphology, particle size, encapsulation and recovery efficiency were i...

SIMULTANEOUS ESTIMATION OF NORFLOXACIN AND TINIDAZOLE IN COMBINED TABLET DOSAGE FORM BY USING RP- HPLC METHOD
Simultaneous estimation method for Norfloxacin and Tinidazole in tablet dosage form had been developed by RP- HPLC. Both the drugs come under the category of antimicrobials and prescribed frequently in combination. The developed method is a gradient method which gives retention time of Norfloxacin and Tinidazole as 3.8min and 4.8min respectively. The separation was carried out on Supelco C18 (25cm...

VIROSOMES: A NOVEL VACCINATION TECHNOLOGY
Vaccine development has continuously shifted away from live attenuated or inactivated whole organisms. Although this approach having good efficacy but for improvement on comparison of risk/benefit ratio which needs improvement due to their highly complex compositions which result in safety concerns. As a consequence, a number of indications remained unadressed. The next generation vaccines represe...

ANTI-ULCER EFFICACY AND SAFETY OF ANDA LEGHYAM A POLYHERBAL SIDDHA FORMULATION
Anda leghyam (AL) a herbo-animal Siddha formulation is administered for Gunmam (Acid peptic diseases) by many Siddha physicians popularly. Anti ulcerogenic activity of the AL has been studied using Aspirin-Pylorus ligation induced gastric ulcer methods (four groups/method, n=6, Aspirin 400mg/kg, Omeprazole 10mg/kg, AL 250,500mg/kg) in wistar albino rat models. Animals were sacrificed and their sto...

AN OVERVIEW ON MICROBIAL FIBRINOLYTIC PROTEASES
Microbial fibrinolytic proteases are of considerable interest in view of their specific activity and stability at biological pH. This review describes different isolation methods which enable the screening and selection of promising organisms for industrial production. Further, strain improvement using mutagenesis and/or recombinant DNA technology can be applied to augment the efficiency of the pr...

A STUDY OF PREGABALIN, TRAMADOL, THEIR COMBINATION AND NIGELLA SATIVA IN NEUROPATHIC PAIN IN RATS
Nigella sativa (NS) is a commonly used herb in Asian and African countries. Extensive experimental studies have been done to shed light on its hepatoprotective, immunumodulator, antioxidant, antimicrobial and several other useful pharmacological properties. However, there is dearth of evidence to evaluate the effect of Nigella sativa extract in neuropathic pain. In this study we have used neuropat...

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 ...

STUDY OF DISSOLUTION CHARACTERISTICS OF IBUPROFEN BY DIFFERENT POLYMERS AND SOLID DISPERSION TECHNIQUES
Poor water solubility is characterized by low dissolution rate and consequently reduced bioavailability. Formulation of solid dispersion has attracted considerable interest where dispersing a poorly water soluble drug in a water soluble polymer matrix improves the dissolution characteristics and bioavailability of the drug. The aim of the present study was to enhance the dissolution rate and bioav...

STUDY OF NEUTRALIZATION OF ENZYMATIC ACTIVITY OF DABOIA RUSSELII VENOM BY VARIOUS PLANT EXTRACTS AND THEIR COMBINATIONS USING IN VITRO METHODS
Snakebite is an important cause of morbidity and mortality and is one of the major health problems in India. Russell’s viper (Daboia russelli) appears to be the commonest cause of fatal snakebite in many Asian countries and especially in the Indian subcontinent. Intravenous administration of anti venom serum neutralizes the systemic actions, but it is of little effect on the reversal of local sy...
