ABSTRACT
Electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy (EPR) is a powerful tool for investigating paramagnetic species, including organic radicals, inorganic radicals, and triplet states. The basic principles behind EPR are very similar to the more ubiquitous nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR), except that EPR focuses on the interaction of an external magnetic field with the unpaired electron(s) in a molecule, rather than the nuclei of individual atoms. EPR has been used to investigate kinetics, mechanisms, and structures of paramagnetic species and along with general chemistry and physics, has applications in biochemistry, polymer science, and geosciences. The use of cavity stabilised Impatt diode oscillators for ESR spectroscopy is discussed in different experimental conditions: i.e. as microwave sources in reflection cavity homodyne spectrometers, and as marginal oscillators in which the oscillator cavity (a TE₀₁₁ cylindrical cavity) is the observing cavity. The sensitivity of this second configuration has been theoretically evaluated for the case in which the Impatt itself is used as a detecting element and in which an external detector is used. For each situation the sensitivity has been measured with a DPPH sample at various power levels giving a sensitivity which is comparable with the best commercial units.

ABSTRACT:
Chromatography may be defined as method of separating a mixture of components into individual component through equilibrium distribution  between two phases. chromatography is based on the differences in the rate at which components of mixture moves through a porous medium ( called stationary  phase ) under the influence of some solvent or gas ( called moving phase ). Graph showing detector response as a function of a time is called Chromatogram. The true separation of two consecutive peak on a chromatogram is measured by resolution.

ABSTRACT
X-rays have a smaller wavelength than visible light, they have higher energy. With their higher energy, X-rays can penetrate matter more easily than can visible light. Their ability to penetrate matter depends on the density of the matter, and thus X-rays provide a powerful tool in medicine for mapping internal structures of the human body.

ABSTRACT:
Over the past fifty years nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, commonly referred to as NMR, has become the preeminent technique for determining the structure of organic compounds. Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy is an analytical chemistry technique used in quality control and research for determining the content and purity of a sample as well as its molecular structure. For example, NMR can quantitatively analyze mixtures containing known compounds. For unknown compounds, NMR can either be used to match against spectral libraries or to infer the basic structure directly. Once the basic structure is known, NMR can be used to determine molecular conformation in solution as well as studying physical properties at the molecular level such as conformational exchange, phase changes, solubility, and diffusion.Of all the spectroscopic methods, it is the only one for which a complete analysis and interpretation of the entire spectrum is normally expected. Although larger amounts of sample are needed than for mass spectroscopy, NMR is non-destructive, and with modern instruments good data may be obtained from samples weighing less than a milligram. To be successful in using NMR as an analytical tool, it is necessary to understand the physical principles on which the methods are based.

ABSTRACT:
Thermogravimetry is a branch of physical chemistry, materials research, and thermal analysis. It is based on continuous recording of mass changes of a sample of material, as a function of a combination of temperature with time, and additionally of pressure and gas composition.

It includes different types of Thermogravimetric analysis. In this article types, Instrumentation, Procedure, Application are priscribed.

ABSTRACT
A novel stability-indicating RP-HPLC method has been develop and validated for quantitative analysis of Sitagliptin in the bulk drug and in its pharmaceutical dosage forms using Hypersil–BDS- C18 column (250x4.6mmi.d, 5µ particle size) with 10mM Phosphate buffer (PH-3.5): ACN 60:40%v/v as isocratic mobile phase enabled separation of the drug from its degradation products. UV detection was performed at 260 nm. The method was validated for linearity, accuracy (recovery), precision, sensitivity, ruggedness and robustness. The linearity of the method was excellent over the range 10–60μg/ml (correlation coefficient 0.999). The limits of detection and quantification were 0.21 and 0.640μg/ml, respectively. Recovery of Sitagliptinfrom the pharmaceutical dosage form ranged from 99.99 to 100.05%.

Sitagliptin was subjected to stress conditions (Hydrolysis (acid, base), oxidation,thermal and photo degradation) and the stressed samples were analysed by use of the method. Degradation was observed in acid, base, and 30% H2O2. The drug was stable under the other stress conditions investigated. The degradation products were well resolved from main peak. The forced degradation studies prove the stability indicating power of the method.

INTRODUCTION
Gas chromatography is a widely used technique for the separation of gaseous and volatile sub which are difficult to separate.The primary limit of s technique is that sample must be capable of being volatilized without undergoing decomposition because of this this technique is replaced by H.P.L.C.It is similar to column chromatography except that the gas is used as the mobile phase instead of the liquid.Here gas as a mobile phase or moving phase is passed through a column a column containing liquid adsorbent coated on inert solid support ,thus the adsorption or partition is possible.Gas solid chromatography(G.S.C) based upon the selective adsorption on solid,so the component of  mixture distributes them selves between the gas phase and adsorbent and the separation is due to adsorptive properties.where as Gas liquid chromatography (G.L.C) is based upon partition between Gas and immobile liquid coated on solid,.so the component of  mixture distributes them selves between the gas phase and liquid adsorbent coated on solid and the separation is due to partition properties¹.

Abstract
Clopidogrel bisulfate is an inhibitor of adenosine diphosphate (ADP)-induced platelet aggregation acting by direct inhibition of ADP binding to its receptor and of the subsequent ADP-mediated activation of the glycoprotein GPIIb/IIIa complex. Objective of the present study is to develop a simple, sensitive, accurate, precise and rapid derivative spectrophotometric method for the estimation of clopidogrel in pure form. For the estimation of clopidogrel, solvent system employed was 0.1 N HCl and wavelength of detection (λ_det) was 284.3 nm for fourth order derivative spectroscopy. The linearity was obtained in the range 42 – 336 µg/ml. The limit of detection is 6.7 µg/ml and limit of quantification was fund to be 20.4 µg/ml. Obtained results showed that there is minimum intra day and inter day variation. The developed method was validated and recovery studies were also carried out. Sample recovery using the above method was in good agreement with their respective labeled claim, thus suggesting the validity of the method and non-interference of formulation excipients in the estimation. Fourth order derivative spectroscopic method is simple, rapid and reproducible and further it can be used for the analysis.
