Abstract

Liposomes are vesicles comprising of spherical phospholipids making them useful for topical applications of drugs. Liposome research has been expanded considerably and nowadays, it is possible to construct a wide range of liposomes varying in size, phospholipids composition and surface characteristics. In dermatological diseases, the topical application of liposomes has proven to be of high therapeutic value. Liposomes can be used as carriers for hydrophilic as well as lipophilic therapeutic agents because of their amphipathic character. They may improve stabilization of instable drugs by encapsulating them. They have the potential to target drugs into the pilosebaceous structures and hence have an advantage for treatment of hair follicle-associated disorders. Liposomal encapsulated drugs are found useful in the treatment of acne, atopic dermatitis, psoriasis, vitiligo, superficial vein thrombosis and hair removal etc

Abstract

The main objective of the current research was to isolate biopenetrant from Beta vulgaris and formulate bioadhesive layers loaded with terbinafine using this biopenetrant for delivery through nail. Form the preparation of films, Rosa centifolia and Vitis vinifera were used as a biopolymer. Beta vulgaris was used as biopenetrant. The formulations prepared using Beta vulgaris biopenetrant were compared with formulations containing papain as standard penetrant. Four bio-adhesive films of different ratios were prepared by film casting method using each penetrant. The formulated films were evaluated for various parameters like weight, thickness, nail adhesivity, content uniformity, surface pH, folding endurance, and in-vitro drug permeation. The formulation LB4 (containing 1:4 Beta vulgaris biopenetrant) was found to be the best formulation having R2 value 0.990 with zero order as best fit model. The results obtained conclude that biopenetrants can be used as natural penetration enhancers

Abstract

Bleomycin is an anti-neoplastic drug that has recently been used for the treatment of vascular anomalies. An expedient method was developed for the determination of plasma bleomycin levels using ion-paired reversed phase high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The concentration was found to be proportional to the area and the response of the detector was determined to be linear over the range of 1-6 µg/ml for both Bleomycin A1 and Bleomycin B2. Recovery was approximately 100%. This method provides a simple and rapid way of determining the levels of bleomycin A2 and B2 in human and rat plasma

Abstract

Acne vulgaris or acne is a multi factorial chronic inflammatory disease of pilosebaceous unit. Globally it affects approximately 9.4% of the population. It is characterized by blackheads and white heads, pinheads, large papules which may lead to scarring. Other than scarring, its main effects are psychological, such as distress and reduced self-esteem. Up to 80% of teenage girls and 90% of teenage boys are afflicted with acne. Adult acne, although less common than adolescent acne, is a significant problem for 3% to 6% of adult men and 5% to 12% of adult women. It is the most common chronic skin disorders which require urgent attention. Successful treatment of acne requires careful selection of anti-acne agents.

Abstract

Background: The habit of using masticatories is quite common among the population of the state Assam. There are numerous types of masticatories available throughout the state, most of which include areca nut in different forms, accompanied with beetle leaves and tobacco leaves and other associated substances added for flavor. Aim: To determine the level of nitrite present in different types of masticatories prevailing in the state. Materials & Methods: The classical Griess method was used for the estimation of nitrite in different types of these masticatories prevailing in the state Assam (n=35) using the basic diazotization principle and spectrophotometric determination. Statistical Analysis used: The results obtained were analyzed statistically by using SPSS V.16 software. Results: The result of the study indicate the amount of nitrite in different types of these masticatories, among which highest levels of nitrite was found in raw areca nut with beetle leaves without lime. The presence of lime decreases the amount of nitrite (p<0.05) whereas, the presence of beetle leaves and unprocessed areca nut increases the amount of nitrite (p<0.05) in the masticatories used by the people of the state. Conclusion: From the study conducted, it can be concluded that the presence of lime reduces the amount of nitrite in the masticatories, whereas the presence of beetle leaves and unprocessed areca nut contribute higher amount of nitrite in the masticatories

Abstract

The aim of present study was to develop and evaluate time controlled release tablet of Ketoprofen intended for rheumatoid arthritis. The cardinal sign of rheumatoid arthritis are stiffness, swelling and pain of one or more joints of the body characteristically most severe in the morning. Rheumatoid arthritis shows a significant circadian variation in its symptoms. Time controlled release tablet delivers the drug at definite time or in controlled rate. It consist of core tablet coated with two layers, the inner swelling layer and outer rupturable. Before compression of core tablet, drug- excipients compatibility study and precompression parameters were investigated. Core tablet was prepared by direct compression method. The core tablets are coated with crosscarmellose sodium as inner swelling layer with different coating level. The prepared tablet again evaluated and coated with rupturable layer of ethylcellulose. The free film of ethylcellulose was evaluated for various parameters. The effect of microcrystalline cellulose and coating level of rupturable layer and swellable layer on lag time were investigated. The results shows as the amount of microcrystalline cellulose increase in core tablet the lag time decreases. The lag time increases with increase in coating level of swelling layer and rupturable layer. The water uptake study shows that higher ethylcellulose levels retards the water uptake and prolongs the lag time.
