Dear Reader,

Scientists seldom try to read regulations, let alone understand or interpret them. Most pharmacy students would have studied a subject called Forensic Pharmacy and read the almost bible like book by late Prof. B M Mittal with the same title. Late Mr. KattiShettar, the then Dr...

All eukaryotes consist of kinases with a serine/threonine residue called glycogen synthase kinase 3 (GSK-3) which mediates cellular functions by causing phosphorylation of glycogen synthase and regulating glucose metabolism. It establishes disease mechanisms through cell signalling and different ...

A series of eleven thiazolidine-2, 4-dione (TZD) derivatives, were synthesized and characterized by FT-IR, 1 H NMR and mass spectral analysis. All the synthesized TZD derivatives were screened for their in vitro and in vivo anti-diabetic and antioxidant, activities and cytotoxicity. In vivo antih...

Novel [1,4]diazepino[2,3-g]quinoxaline derivatives 5a-5i were designed, synthesized and characterized by spectroscopic method and elemental analysis. The title compounds were screened for skeletal muscle relaxant. Among the synthesized analogs, compound 5g and compound 5h revealed significant ske...

Mocharas is the gum of the tree Bombax malabaricum DC which belongs to the family Bombaceae. In Unani system of medicine, it is used in the treatment of various infectious diseases. In the present study, various extracts of Mocharas (B. malabaricum) were tested for their antibacterial activity ag...

The present study describes the development and validation of a new stability indicating RP-HPLC method for simultaneous estimation of elbasvir and grazoprevir in bulk and pharmaceutical dosage form. The chromatographic separation was done by using reverse phase YMC column (4.6 x 250mm, 5μm).The...

Peristrophe bicalyculata posses expectorant, analgesic, anti-inflamatory, antipyretic and antibacterial properties and has been traditionally used for the management of pain, sprain, and bone fracture. In this study we have tried to incorporate bioactive components of P. bicalyculata in transderm...

The main aim of this study was to screen the selected fruit peel extracts and their polyherbal mixture (PHM) for hepatoprotective activity. Male wistar albino rats (180-200 g), divided into 12 groups after induction of hepatotoxicity, were treated with selected fruit peel extracts and PHM and at ...

The aim of the present work was to develop simple, precise and economic UV- spectrophotometric methods for the simultaneous estimation of aspirin and omeprazole in a laboratory sample. The absorbance maxima (λmax) for detection of aspirin and omeprazole were selected as 274 nm and 302 nm, respec...
