Traditionally Psidum guajava has been used for the treatment of several kinds of disorders. The component quercetin a flavonoid that is present in the guava leaves, is responsible of having wound healing properties, so the aim and objective of the study was to Develop Herbal loaded Niosomes for the treatment of Wound Healing. To enhance the transport and efficacy of many materials through stratum corneum one of various methods expanded nowadays is the usage of new drug delivery system such as Niosomal formulations. Niosomes are self assemblies of non ionic surfactants with or without cholesterol, which can be used for both hydrophilic and hydrophobic substances. The extraction of Psidum guajava is performed by Soxhlet apparatus, and the extract is evaluated for phytochemical screening, antimicrobial activity, and TLC. Materials used in the formulation are span 60, cholesterol, diethyl ether, chloroform, buffer and extract. The herbal drug-loaded niosomes are prepared by using reverse phase evaporation method. Total twelve formulations are prepared and the formulations (F1, F2, F3, F4, F5, F6) were...

Triazole is a diunsaturated heterocyclic compound that contains two nitrogen groups as heteroatoms. In the present study, an attempt was made to synthesize various derivatives of substituted 1, 2, 4-triazol-3-yl) benzene-1-ol and assess their antimicrobial efficiency. The synthesized compounds were subjected to physical characterization and spectral analysis by IR and NMR for structure elucidation. The compounds were then subjected to evaluation of antimicrobial activity against bacterial strains Escherichia coli (Gram -ve), Pseudomonas aeruginosa (Gram -ve), Bacillus Subtili (Gram +ve), Staphylococcus aureus (Gram +ve) method using ciprofloxacin as standard and against fungal strain Aspergillus niger method using fluconazole as standard. The results of antibacterial activity show that compounds P1 and P2 and the results of antifungal activity show that compounds P3 and P4 showed equivalent activity when compared with standard while the rest of the compounds were found to be less active than...

The crude drug powder extracts from three plants Datura metel L., (Solanaceae), Leucas cephalotes (Roth.). Spreng, Piper betel L., (Piperaceae) were screened for estimating phytochemical constituents. Phytochemical analysis of the extracts revealed that glycoside; tannin, saponin, carbohydrate and phenolic compounds are present in Piper and Leucas species. Besides glycoside, tannin, saponin, carbohydrate and phenolic compound, alkaloid is also present in Datura species. The antimicrobial activity of the plant materials and their usefulness in the treatment of asthma may be due to the presence of active constituents like tannins, alkaloids and phenolic. The present study reported that the phytochemical constituents of three plants being widely used for traditional treatment of asthma in Myanmar, collected from Kalay, Sagaing...

Senna alata is an effective novel pharmaceutical medicinal plant. The hot extraction method was used to prepare methanol and ethanol extracts of leaves. The extracts were further evaluated to study Antimicrobial potential, phytochemical analysis, FTIR, and Antioxidant activity. The FTIR analysis showed various functional groups that served as secondary metabolites and responsible for antimicrobial activity. The antimicrobial activity of the extract may be due to the presence of secondary metabolites like alkaloids, terpenoids, phenols, saponins, flavonoids, glycosides and tannins. The Senna alata leaves were evaluated for antimicrobial activity against clinically important bacterial strains such as E. coli, B. cereus, B. subtilis, S. aureus, P. aeruginosa, P. fluorescens, and fungi strain namely A. niger by agar well diffusion method. The ethanolic extract of the leaves of Senna alata showed the highest antioxidant activity. S. alata has a great antimicrobial ability which needs to be intensively discussed...

Periodontitis is a destructive inflammatory disease of the periodontium induced by specific microorganisms and requires more specific treatment. The traditional mechanical therapy alone is not sufficient for the treatment of moderate to severe periodontitis because of in accessibility in the deep periodontal pocket and depth of penetration of microorganisms into the periodontal connective tissues. Thus to overcome the limitations of mechanical therapy, local drug delivery into the periodontal pocket is recommended. The local drug delivery of chemotherapeutic agents to the periodontal lesion site has the advantage of loading a higher concentration of drug at the target site minimizing the adverse effect of the drug on the other systems of the body. The local drug delivery system having controlled release should be considered as an adjunctive to mechanical debridement for the treatment of periodontal diseases. This article reviews local drug delivery systems containing antimicrobial agents. Further extensive comparative studies are required to optimize the use of novel drugs in the local drug delivery system to manage periodontal...
