Nanostructured Lipid Carriers (NLCs) is a novel type of drug-delivery system. They are binary system which is stable in a different environment. Nanostructured Lipid Carrier (NLC) comprises a blend of solid and liquid lipids as a core matrix. NLCs have aggravated the incessant impulsion for developing safe and valuable drug delivery systems due to their exceptional physicochemical and biocompatible characteristics. Additional utilization NLCs is crucial because of overcoming barriers enclosed by the technological procedure of lipid-based nanocarriers’ formulation and raised data on the core mechanisms of their transport via numerous routes of administration. NLC it can be easily used as a carrier for drugs via different routes of administration such as oral, parenteral, ocular, and nasal. Nanostructured lipid carriers (NLCs) have been reported to be an alternative system and are considered superior to many other traditional lipid-based nanocarriers such as emulsions, nanoemulsion, liposome, microparticle, and solid lipid nanoparticle (SLNs). It imparts many advantages over SLN’s such as increased solubility and stability, improved permeability and bioavailability, enhanced drug loading capacity,...

Compounds with heterocyclic moiety are important for life and are abundant in nature. Heterocyclic compounds have a crucial part in the metabolism of all biological cells. Humanity relies heavily on nitrogen-based heterocyclic compounds. Benzimidazole, in particular, is a vital component of the entire nitrogen-based heterocyclic chemical family, not just physiologically but also industrially. Because once benzene, as well as imidazole, get merged around each other, a heterocyclic benzimidazole compound forms. Benzimidazole incorporates two nitrogens like a heteroatom. Benzimidazole analogues are often more powerful, medicinally significant chemicals with a wide range of biological activities. Benzimidazole analogues have been proven to be beneficial in several fields. The medicinal characteristics of benzimidazole analogue are diverse, including anticancer, antidiabetic, antihypertensive, and antimicrobial properties. Because of the medications’ uses in the treatment of microbe-related infections and other biological activities, stronger and more significant pharmaceuticals are being developed. These compounds have been found to be efficient against various bacteria in pharmacological tests. The antimicrobial property of several benzimidazole compounds is summarised in this...

Potentially bioactive tetradentate novel Schiff base ligand and its mononuclear metal (II) complexes have been synthesized by the condensation method of p – nitroaniline, isatin, and 2, 2′ bipyridyl molecules in the ratio of 1:1:1. The ligand and its reported complexes exactly categorized by diverse physicochemical techniques that include elemental analysis, conductance measurements, IR, electronic spectra studies, 1H NMR spectroscopy, and EPR studies. Derived complexes are exactly non-electrolyte in nature in Dimethylformamide solution because of their lower conductance values. The IR data tells us the association of C=N nitrogen atom in coordination to the metal ion. Electronical studies and magnetic measurements suggested the octahedral geometry around metal ion under investigation. The EPR spectral data shows additional proof for the octahedral geometry. The nucleolytic cleavage of the reported compounds was checked upon pUC18 DNA by gel – electrophoresis method. In this study, anti-oxidant and anti-microbial activities have also been evidently studied. The compounds show exact growth inhibitory activity over bacteria such as S. aureus, E. coli, B. subtilis and K,...

Purpose: A serious cause of morbidity and mortality, malaria remains a major public health concern. Failure of available treatments due to the rapid emergence of drug-resistant parasite strains emphasizes the need for a continuous search for new, safe, accessible, and affordable drug treatments. Methods: In this context, an ethnobotanical survey was conducted, different parts of seventeen medicinal plants were collected, and their methanolic extracts were prepared. These extracts were evaluated for anti-plasmodial activity against two strains of Plasmodium falciparum: chloroquine-sensitive 3D7 and resistant INDO using SYBR-Green I assay. The extracts were also assessed for cytotoxic effects against HEK293 mammalian cell lines using MTT assay. Results: Two plant extracts: Albizia lebbeck and Tecomella undulata exhibited good activity with IC50 ranging from 10-20µg/ml. Among others, eight showed moderate activity (IC50= 20.1- 50µg/ml), while eight extracts either showed poor activity or were not active upto IC50=100µg/ml against Pf3 D7. The extracts with good to moderate effects showed equipotent effects against Pf INDO and were non-toxic to mammalian cell lines with selectivity indices...

Neuropathic pain is a chronic illness that originates when abnormal functioning in the nervous system is observed or if the nervous system, including peripheral nerves, spinal cords, and brain, is damaged or not working properly, and originating pain. Therefore, it can be said that neuropathic pain is a chronic illness that directly impacts a large number of patients, society, and healthcare systems all over the world. The prevalence of neuropathic pain is believed to be 7-8% in the general population, and it is supposed to rise in the future. The impact of neuropathic pain on older persons is significant. The medical practitioner faces a problem in reducing neuropathic pain symptoms and improving the patient’s quality of life. Older people are easily and badly affected by neuropathic pain and are more susceptible to specific adverse effects. Neuropathic pain is different from nociceptive pain, and there is a requirement for a different treatment strategy for neuropathic pain management. The present review article is based on a detailed literature survey on etiology,...
