ABSTRACT Thiadiozoles and Azetidinones are important heterocyclic molecules employed in field of research and development of newer therapeutic agents. The work focused to the antimicrobial action of azetidiones moiety (β-lactum), due to its greater resistance to enzymatic cleavage by lactomases. Various Azetidinone derivatives were synthesized via thiadiazole intermediate and screened for antimicrobial activity by agar well diffusion method using gram positive (Bacillus subtilis) and gram negative (Escherichia coli) organisms at 400μg/well and 200μg/well. The compound TDPCB (Thiadiazole-para-chloro-benzaldehyde-substituted azetidinone derivative) was found to have significant antimicrobial property. Key words: Azetidinone, Thiadiazole, substituted aldehydes, antibacterial.

The present study was aimed to investigate the comparative study on hepatoprotective activity of alcoholic extracts from Mollugo pentaphylla and Mollugo cerviana against carbon tetrachloride induced hepatotoxicity in rats. Most of the hepatotoxic chemicals damage liver cells mainly by inducing lipid peroxidation and other oxidative damages. Liver function was assessed by the determination of serum glutamate oxaloacetate transaminase(SGOT), serum glutamate pyruvate transaminase( SGPT) ,Alkaline phosphatase (ALP), Acyl carrier protein (ACP), bilirubin. The investigation reveals that the alcoholic extract of the M. pentaphylla and M. cerviana exhibiting a significant protective from liver damage in Carbon tetrachloride (CCl4)induced liver damage model. The present study involve of comparison of pharmacological activity of two plant species. Silymarin (25mg/kg) is used as positive control. The presence of flavonoid compound in both of the extract may be responsible for the significant hepatoprotective property. Key words: Hepatoprotective Property, Mollugo pentaphylla, Mollugo cerviana.

Aim of the Study is to develop simple, rapid, specific and sensitive RP-HPLC method for the determination of Ornidazole and Ofloxacin. The Specificity of Ofloxacin and Ornidazole was found there was no interference in the method and good separation between all peaks; it means no impurity was interfered and also reveals that commonly used excipients and additives present in the pharmaceutical formulation were not interfering in the proposed methods. The precision was found to be within the limits. The limit were not more than RSD <2%.Precision RSD was found to be 0.9937for Ofloxacin and 0.8048 for Ornidazole.The low %RSD value for intraday and inter day precision reveled that the proposed method is robust and rugged. From the linearity table it was found that , the drug obeys beer’s law and from the linearity range 22 to 66ug/ml for ofloxacin and 55 to 165ug/ml for ornidazole. In Robustness parameter in both conditions the RSD was less than 2%. Hence the method was better for pharmaceutical formulation analysis. Key words: Ornidazole and Ofloxacin, sensitive RP-HPLC method.

A simple, selective, rapid, precise and economical reverse phase high performance liquid chromatographic (RP-HPLC) method has been developed for the simultaneous estimation of Paracetamol (PARA) and Flupiritine Maleate (FLU) from pharmaceutical formulation. The method is carried out on Agilent C18 (25 cm x 4.6 mm i.d., 5 μ) column with a mobile phase consisting of Methanol Water (0.2% TEA, adjusted to pH 3 using orthophosphoric acid) in the ratio of 50:50 v/v. The retention time of Paracetamol and Flupiritine Maleate is 6.3 min and 4.2 min respectively with the flow rate of 1mL/ min with PDA detection at 240 nm. The linear regression analysis data for the linearity plot showed good linear relationship with correlation coefficient value for Paracetamol and Flupiritine Maleate were R2=0.9998 and R2=1.0000 in the concentration range of 1.25-60.08 μg. mL-1 , 6.25-300.03 μg. mL-1 respectively. The relative standard deviation for intra-day precision has been found to be lower than 2.0 %. The method is validated according to the ICH guidelines. The developed method is validated in terms of specificity, selectivity, accuracy, precision, linearity, limit of detection, limit of quantitation and solution stability. The proposed method can be used for simultaneous estimation of these drugs in marketed dosage forms. KEY WORDS: RP-HPLC, Paracetamol and Flupiritine Maleate

Dexlansaprazole is a proton pump inhibitor, belongs to group of benzimidazole, used for the treatment of gastric and duodenum ulcers. Dexlansaprazole undergoes degradation in acid medium of the stomach, can be coated with enteric coating polymer that will safely deliver the drug in the small intestine. In this present study an attempt was made to formulate and evaluate Dexlansaprazole as enteric coated tablet. Delayed release tablets of Dexlansaprazole were prepared by wet granulation method using HPMC K4M and HPMC K15M, Avicel PH 102 (MCC) as filler and starch as binder. The prepared tablets were evaluated for hardness, weightvariation, friability and drug content uniformity and it was found that the results comply with official standards. The prepared tablets were coated using enteric coating polymer such as cellulose acetate phthalate, EudragitL100 by dip coating method. The invitro release was studied using pH 1.2 acidic buffer and pH6.8 phosphate buffer. The in vitro release study revealed that the prepared tablets were able to sustain release drug into the intestine. The release kinetics studies Showed that the release was zero order diffusion controlled and the nvalues obtained from the Korsmeyer-Peppas model showed that the release mechanism was supercase-II transport. Stability studies indicated that the developed tablets were stable and retained their pharmaceutical properties at room temperature and 40°C/75 %RH for a period of 1month. Key words: Dexlansaprazole, Delayed release, HPMC.

Metformin HCl sustained release matrix tablets were prepared by direct compression. All the tablets were prepared under identical conditions to minimize the processing variables. Tablet formulations were further evaluated for physical parameters. It was revealed that all the tablet formulations were found to be stable and meeting I.P specified limits for weight uniformity, friability, drug content. Drug content estimated for all the tablet formulations were highly uniform with less than 2.5% variation. Drug content was also the same in case of matrix tablets containing polymers. The matrix tablet formulations prepared with drug and polymer of guar gum in F5 could be suitable for extending the drug release more than 12 hrs. Key words: Metformin HCl, sustained release matrix.
