ABSTRACT:
In current study formulation of self emulsifying drug delivery system of Fenofibrate was carried out using Lipd phase,
emulsifier and co emulsifier flax seed oil, tween 20 and polyethylene glycol 600 respectively. various oil, emulsifier and co
emulsifiers were selected based on their solubility. Using water titration method ternary phase diagram ware prepared for
SEDDS and emulsification region were analysed visually. All prepared formulations were evaluated for dilution studies, self
emulsification time, drug content, in-vitro dissolution, droplet size determination, zeta potential measurement, viscosity
determination and thermodynamic stability study. Based on stability study results, viscosity and usage of less emulsifier the
final formulation were prepared. The comparison of invitro dissolution study of final formulation shows 5.4 fold and 1.8 fold
increases in dissolution at 60 min with pure drug and marketed formulation respectively.

ABSTRACT:
IDrug addiction is a chronic condition characterized by obsessive, or uncontrollable, drug seeking and leading harmful
consequences and changes in the brain, which can lead to crime, guilt or death. Drug addiction is also a relapsing disease and
careful long term treatment required to stop using again after treatment. The path to drug addiction begins with the voluntary act
of taking drugs. But after compromised with person's ability of what to choose and what not, gradually it affects parts of the brain
involved in reward and motivation, learning and memory, and control over behavior. As addiction is a chronic disease, it is not
easy to stop using drugs after developing abuse. Most patients need long-term or repeated care to stop using completely and
recover their lives.

A novel liquid chromatographic-Time of Flight mass spectrometric (LC-TOF-MS) method has been developed for the determination of
Khadirarishta, polyherbal fermented Ayurvedic medicine made out by heart wood of Acacia catechu along with other herbal ingredients. It is
having anti-lipid peroxidation activity with human erythrocytes. Results indicate that khadirarishta has good antioxidant potential and reduces
lipidperoxidation in human erythrocytes. To determine the content, LC-MS study was carried out of herbal formulation.The chromatographic
separation was achieved within 30 min by using Water (0.1% Formic acid): Acetonitrile as mobile phase with gradient system and Agilent
Zorbax C18 column (100 x 2.1 mm, 1.8µm), the flow-rate was 0.3 ml/min. Ion signals m/z between 40 to 1700 was measured in the positive
mode. The method was simple, sensitive, precise, accurate and was successfully applied to the herbal formulation and individual standard
compound.

ABSTRACT:
A newer, simple, accurate and sensitive Simultaneous Equation method is developed for the simulataneous estimation of
Rosuvastatin (ROS), Clopidogrel (CLOP) and Aspirin (ASP) in pharmaceutical dosage form. Simultaneous Equation method was
developed using three wavelenghts which are 243.56 nm (?max of ROS), 223.38 nm (?max of CLOP) and 276.44 nm (?max of
ASP). In Simultaneous Equation method ROS, CLOP and ASP obeyed Beer's law in the concentration range of 1-5 µg/ml for
ROS, 7.5-37.5 µg/ml for CLOP and 7.5-37.5 µg/ml for ASP. Methanol was used as a solvent. The results of the analysis were
analyzed and validated statistically and recovery studies were carried out as per ICH guidelines. It can be used for routine analysis
of three drugs in bulk as well as in pharmaceutical formulations.
KEY WORDS: Rosuvastatin (ROS), Clopidogrel (CLOP), Aspirin (ASP), Simultaneous Equation Method.
ABSTRACT:
RP-HPLC Method For Estimation of Leucovorin Calcium In A Tablet Formulation. An isocratic reversed phase HPLC method has
been developed for the determination of Leucovorin Calcium on a C18Phenomonex (250 x 4.6 mm) column using a mobile phase
consisting of 0.00 5M tetrabutyl ammonium phosphate buffer pH 6.6 (70:30,v/v) at a flow rate of 1 mL/min and the detection was
carried out at 292 nm. Retention times of Leucovorin Calcium was found to be 3.99 min. The method was validated with respect
to specificity, linearity, accuracy, precision, ruggedness and robustness. This method is simple, precise, and sensitive and is
applicable for simultaneous quantification of Leucovorin Calcium in a tablet formulation
Keywords: isocratic, reverse phase, validation, Leucovorin Calcium, RP-HPLC
ABSTRACT:
The present study was done to formulate the self emulsifying drug delivery system of Lovastatin, a lipophilic drug for improvement in in-
vitro dissolution and thereby oral bioavailability. Final optimized formulation consisted of oil (), surfactant (Cremophore El) and co-
surfactant (Capmul MCM) and solid carrier (Neusilin US2) for adsorption. At first, calibration curve of lovastatin was generated, and then
based on saturation solubility studies in different vehicles; oil, surfactant and co-surfactant were screened. Pseudo ternary phase
diagrams were used to get micro emulsion region, based on which liquid self emulsifying drug delivery systems of lovastatin were
formulated. They were characterized by macroscopic evaluation by visual assessment, self-emulsification time, % Transmittance, globule
size, zeta potential, and thermodynamic stability study. In vitro drug dissolution of optimized liquid self emulsifying formulation showed
that % release of lovastatin found 99.03±0.31within 30 min which was comparable to marketed tablet of lovastatin 72.91±0.5. The
globule size found was 16.1 nm from the optimized Liquid self emulsifying formulation. Optimized liquid self emulsifying formulation was
successfully solidified using carrier Neusilin US2 by adsorption technique. Solid SEDDS was characterized by flow property, particle size,
zeta potential measurement, % Transmittance, % drug content and in-vitro dissolution test and found that there was not much difference
in dissolution behavior of solid and liquid SEDDS. Even it passed stability studies. So it was concluded that lovastatin solid self
emulsifying drug delivery system was successfully developed to improve its rate and extent of dissolution.

ABSTRACT:
The present study was done to formulate the self emulsifying drug delivery system of Simvastatin, a lipophilic drug for improvement in in-
vitro dissolution and thereby oral bioavailability. Final optimized formulation consisted of oil (oleic acid), surfactant (Tween 80) and co-
surfactant (Capmul MCM) and solid carrier (Neusilin US2) for adsorption. At first, calibration curve of simvastatin was generated, and
then based on saturation solubility studies in different vehicles; oil, surfactant and co-surfactant were screened. Pseudo ternary phase
diagrams were used to get micro emulsion region, based on which liquid self emulsifying drug delivery systems of simvastatin were
formulated. They were characterized by macroscopic evaluation by visual assessment, self-emulsification time, % Transmittance, globule
size, zeta potential, and thermodynamic stability study. In vitro drug dissolution of optimized liquid self emulsifying formulation showed
that % release of simvastatin found 99.76±0.21 within 30 min which was comparable to marketed tablet of simvastatin 70.37±0.45. The
globule size found was 14.69 nm from the optimized Liquid self emulsifying formulation. Optimized liquid self emulsifying formulation was
successfully solidified using carrier Neusilin US2 by adsorption technique. Solid SEDDS was characterized by flow property, particle size,
zeta potential measurement, % Transmittance, % drug content and in-vitro dissolution test and found that there was not much difference
in dissolution behavior of solid and liquid SEDDS. Even it passed stability studies. So it was concluded that solid self emulsifying drug
delivery system was successfully developed to improve its rate and extent of dissolution.

ABSTRACT:
Objective: A cross-sectional study was undertaken to analyse the genotoxic effects occurring during fixed orthodontic treatment on the cells of
oral buccal mucosa. Materials & Methods: The study included two groups (n=20 each), one including healthy adult individuals undergoing fixed
orthodontic treatment and the other served as control. Oral buccal mucosal cells were collected as per the principles of exfoliative cytology and
stained using a Rapid PAP kit. Micronuclei count was done using a compound light microscope in 500 non overlapping cells in a step ladder
fashion. Results: Statistical analysis revealed a significant increase in the number of cells showing micronuclei (p<0.001) and the total number
of micronuclei (p<0.001) in patients undergoing fixed orthodontic treatment. Conclusion: Based on these findings it can be suggested that fixed
orthodontic treatment causes genotoxic effects on the oral buccal mucosal cells.
KEYWORDS: exfoliative cytology, fixed orthodontic treatment, micronuclei, oral buccal mucosal cells.
ABSTRACT:
Drug addiction is an obsessive, or uncontrollable, drug seeking chronic relapsing brain disease. Drug abuse causes serious health issues
including HIV. The number of addicts in India increases day by day and the issue need to be take in to consideration. Awareness not only
towards prevent drug and alcohol addiction but also towards de-addiction and re-habitation is required. There are many consequences of
addiction that includes health issue, family problems, social problems, financial and occupational issue and legal issues. All these problems can
be avoided or short out by deaddiction and for that awareness need to spread in society. Government of India is promoting various NGO and
self-finance trusts with funds for implementation of deaddiction and rehabilitation.
